2024 Acura RDX Check Engine Light Reset

Resetting the check engine light on a 2024 Acura RDX is more than clearing a dashboard indicator — it requires confirming the underlying fault has been properly diagnosed and repaired. At Coggin Acura Fort Pierce, our technicians use Acura factory-grade diagnostic tools to read and interpret stored trouble codes, verify freeze-frame data, and perform targeted repairs with OEM parts. Simply clearing the light without addressing the cause risks recurring issues and may mask emissions or drivability faults that can cause long-term damage. Our process includes a detailed inspection, transparent estimate, and test drive to ensure the issue is resolved before we clear the code. That approach delivers immediate benefits — restored performance and peace of mind — and long-term value by maintaining factory warranties and preventing repeat repairs.

We also provide service financing options so you can authorize essential work now and pay over time while protecting your vehicle’s longevity.
