Official summary

Dealer Message - American Honda Motor Co., Inc. (AHM) is searching for certain 2017-2020 MDXs with a client complaint of an unexpected CMBS operation or a brake application. To better understand the cause of this condition, AHM would like to collect specific parts 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.
