On the filed record so far, the 2022 is the cleanest NSX year we hold, and the 2018 the one to check hardest.

Both figures are divided by the number of years the car has been on sale, because otherwise the oldest year on the page loses every time simply for having been around longer. The current model year and any year under three on the road are left out: their records are not finished.

Common questions about the Acura NSX

Source: EPA, NHTSA and manufacturer press kits

Which Acura NSX year is the best used buy?

On the recall record, the 2022 NSX comes out top of the years before the current one: Safety Signal grade A (100/100), 0 recalls and 0 owner complaints on file. That ranks paperwork, not condition — a specific car's history and service record still decide it.

What Acura NSX years should I avoid?

No NSX model year carries a D or F Safety Signal or a standing advisory. The ranking page orders every year on recalls and complaints per year on the road, and says why.

How many recalls does the Acura NSX have?

Across model years 2017–2022, NHTSA has posted 9 recall campaigns for the Acura NSX. They are counted per model year in the table above, because a campaign almost never covers the whole run — it covers a build range.
