Known issues on the 2013 SRX. Five recalls are on federal record for this model year. Two involve the rear suspension toe adjuster link, where a jam nut torqued below specification can loosen, wander at speed, and eventually fail, causing a loss of vehicle control. Another covers the transmission control module, which in certain driving situations can trigger a three-to-four-second lag in acceleration. A separate transmission recall describes a software fault that can shift into Sport mode and unexpectedly remove engine braking. The fifth covers the 18-inch wheel lug nuts, which may loosen and let a wheel separate from the vehicle. Owners have filed 393 complaints for the year. The factory diagnostic and repair procedures behind each of those systems are here.

Whether you're re-torquing the rear toe link, chasing a TCM acceleration lag, or working through a routine service interval, it keeps you on the OEM procedure and the correct specification for your specific 2013 SRX.
