Airbag Care
You do not need to, and should not, perform any maintenance on or replace any airbag
system components yourself. However, you should have your vehicle inspected by an
authorized Acura NSX dealer in the following situations:
When the airbags have deployed
If an airbag has inflated, the control unit and other related parts must be replaced. Similarly,
once an automatic seat belt tensioner has been activated, it must be replaced.
When the vehicle has been in a moderate-to-severe collision
Even if the airbags did not inflate, have an authorized Acura NSX dealer inspect the following:
weight sensors in the passenger’s seat, seat belt tensioners, and each seat belt that was worn
during the crash.
Do not remove or modify a seat without first consulting a dealer
This would likely disable or affect the proper operation of the weight sensors in the
passenger’s seat. If it is necessary to remove or modify a seat to accommodate a person
with disabilities, contact an authorized Acura NSX dealer For U.S. vehicles, call Acura Client
Relations at (844) 682-2872 (NSX specific). For Canadian vehicles, call Acura Client Services
at (844) 9-MYNSX-9 (NSX specific).
Child Safety
Each year, many children are injured or killed in vehicle crashes because they are either
unrestrained or not properly restrained. In fact, vehicle collisions are the number one cause of
death of children ages 12 and under.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and Transport Canada recommend that
all children ages 12 and under be properly restrained in a rear seat. Some states or provinces/
territories have laws restricting where children may ride.
To reduce the number of child deaths and injuries, every state, Canadian province and territory
requires that infants and children be properly restrained when they ride in a vehicle.
Since this vehicle does not have a back seat, we recommend that you do not carry a child
age 12 or under as a passenger.
This is for the following reasons:
• An inflating front or side airbag can injure or kill a child sitting in the passenger’s seat.
• A child in the passenger’s seat is more likely to interfere with the driver’s ability to safely
control the vehicle.
• Statistics show that children of all sizes and ages are safer when they are properly restrained
in a rear seat.
• Any child who is too small to wear a seat belt correctly must be restrained in an approved
child seat that is properly secured to the vehicle using either the lap belt portion of the lap/
shoulder belt or the lower anchors of the LATCH system.
• Never hold a child on your or any passenger’s lap because it is impossible to protect them in
the event of a collision.
• Never put a seat belt over yourself and a child. During a crash, the belt would likely press
deep into the child and cause serious or fatal injuries.
