Dealer Message -American Honda Motor Co., Inc. (AHM) is searching for certain 2020-2021 RDXs with a client complaint of the center console lid (armrest) not latching/staying closed intermittently or at all times. To better understand the cause of this condition, AHM would like to collect specific information from the vehicle prior to you attempting a repair of any kind.

What a TSB means. Technical service bulletins are repair guidance manufacturers send to dealers — they are not recalls, and repairs are not automatically free (warranty extensions are an exception worth checking). The full document is available via NHTSA’s vehicle lookup.
