I PURCHASED THIS CAR FROM A CERTIFIED DEALER IN 2016. MULTIPLE TIMES, THE VEHICLE LOST ITS ABILITY TO ACCELERATE AND MAINTAINS ITS CURRENT SPEED. AS IT IT BECAME SLUGGISH. YESTERDAY, ON MY WAY HOME FROM WORK, THE ENGINE STALLED SUDDENLY.

VEHICLE STABILITY ASSIST APPLIES BRAKES WITHOUT DRIVER PRESSING THE BRAKES

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 ACURA RDX. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE BATTERY FAILED WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER, BUT THE FAILURE WAS NOT DUPLICATED. THE FAILURE BEGAN FOUR MONTHS AGO. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 84,000.

PARASITIC BATTERY DRAIN FROM HANDS FREE LINK UNIT CAUSING BATTERY TO GO DEAD. GOOGLED THE ISSUE AND SAW MANY COMPLAINTS REGARDING THIS ISSUE. I WAS ON A ROAD TRIP FROM CALIFORNIA TO MINNESOTA AND HAD STOPPED AT A VACANT PARKING LOT TO TAKE A NAP. I TURNED OFF THE LIGHTS, TURNED THE VEHICLE OFF AND REMOVED THE KEY, 4 HOURS LATER MY BATTERY WAS DEAD. I ENDED UP BUYING A NEW BATTERY AND A FEW MONTHS LATER I FLEW OUT TO CALIFORNIA AGAIN FOR 3 DAYS, WHEN I RETURNED MY CAR WAS DEAD AGAIN.

THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS DO NOT WORK PROPERLY, IRRESPECTIVE OF YOUR SPEED OR TIMING SELECTION. THIS IS NOW CONSTANT AS THEY WILL NOT SHUT OFF. THE WIPER SPEED IS FAST AND WHEN IT DOES INTERMITTENTLY STOP, IT STOPS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE DRIVERS VIEW AND CANNOT BE MOVED. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 AUDI 2.0 (N/A). THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 10 MPH ON A SLIGHT INCLINE, THE VEHICLE LUNGED FORWARD WITH HESITATION. THE FAILURE RECURRED INTERMITTENTLY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER, WHO WAS UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM AND INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE OCCURRENCE WAS A NORMAL CHARACTERISTICS FOR THE VEHICLE, ESPECIALLY IN COLDER WEATHER. IN ADDITION, THE FRONT WINDSHIELD EXHIBITED A GLARE UNTIL THE GLASS WAS REPLACED BY THE DEALER. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE PROBLEM. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 3,000.

I HAD TWO EVENTS. ONE WHILE DRIVING AT 20 MPH IN MY NEIGHBORHOOD AND STRAIGHT LINE DRIVING AND CAR SUDDENLY ACCELERATED. I THREW CAR IN NEUTRAL AND STEPPED ON GAS HARD FOR A SECOND AND CANCELATION STOPPED. THEN FIVE MINUTES LATER, WHILE MAKING A LEFT TURN, SAME EXACT EVENT TOOK PLACE. I DID THE SAME THING. I HAD THE BRAKES ON HARD AND NO STOPPING CAR. FIRST TIME CAR HAS DONE THIS AND I AM ONLY DRIVER FOR SIX YEARS. BROUGHT TO ACURA AND THEY SENT A CORPORATE MECHANIC TO CHECK AND SAID THEY FOUND NOTHING. JUST GOT CAR BACK. A LITTLE SCARY.

SUA INCIDENT. I SLOWLY ENTERED UNDERGROUND PARKING GARAGE WITH BRAKES ON, TURNED INTO PARKING STALL (BRAKES ON) AND VEHICLE SUDDENLY, RAPIDLY ACCELERATED, OVER RIDING BRAKES AND CRASHED HEAD ON INTO CEMENT WALL CAUSING AIRBAG TO DEPLOY. OVER $9000.00 IN DAMAGE WAS DONE TO THE VEHICLE. WITNESS BEHIND ME TESTIFIED THAT I WAS GOING VERY SLOWLY AND THE BRAKE LIGHTS WERE ON FROM THE TIME I ENTERED THE PARKING GARAGE TO THE TIME OF THE CRASH. *TR

ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON AFTER LONG DRIVES AND HOT WEATHER. AFTER SEVERAL INSPECTIONS BY MY MECHANIC, I WAS TOLD I NEEDED A NEW TURBO. I HAVE 147,000 MILES ON THE CAR. HE TOLD ME MY CAR WOULD JUST STOP AT SOME POINT. IS THIS REALLY THE PROBLEM? THE ENGINE LIGHT IS SCARY. IT HAPPENS WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY.

DRIVER'S SEAT BELT OFTEN COMES UNLATCHED RANDOMLY WHILE DRIVING.

I OWN A 2007 ACURA RDX. ON APRIL 13, 2015, MY DRIVER SIDE SEAT BELT DID NOT RETRACT, AND THEREFORE WHEN I STEPPED OUT OF CAR, THE SEAT BELT WAS LODGED BETWEEN THE DOOR, AND THE FRAME OF CAR. ADDITIONALLY I HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM WITH MIDDLE PASSENGER BACK SEAT. THE SEAT BELT IN THE BACK CANNOT BE USED BECAUSE IT DOES NOT RETRACT. I CALLED ACURA AND WAS TOLD THAT THE SEAT BELT HAS A WARRANTY UP TO 15 YEARS AND OR 150,000 MILES. MY CAR IS COVERED, BUT WHEN I TOOK IT TO DEALER ON APRIL 17, 2015, THAT TO REMOVE THE SEAT BELT THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR HAS TO BE BROKEN, AND THAT THESE COSTS WILL BE CHARGED TO ME. MY ACURA 2007 RDX IS ALSO SCHEDULED FOR INSPECTION, WHICH WOULD RESULT IN A FAILURE. PLEASE ASSIST ME WITH THIS SAFETY ISSUE. THANK YOU. *TR

I PURCHASED THE CAR IN APRIL AND I NEVER RECEIVED MY REGISTRATION, AND PLATES, THEY HAD NEVER MENTIONED TO ME THAT THE STATUS OF THE CAR WAS SALVAGE. I ALSO WASN'T INFORMED THEY WERE OUT OF BUSINESS WHEN I WAS IN PROCESS OF PURCHASING MY CAR. SINCE I PURCHASED THE CAR THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT HAS ALWAYS BEEN ON, AND THE BACK OF THE CAR IS MESSED UP.

WE HAVE A PRE-OWNED CERTIFIED 2007 ACURA RDX, AND NOTICED THAT FROM TIME TO TIME THE IGNITION DOES NOT RELEASE THE KEY WHEN THE CAR IS PUT IN PARK. WE TOOK THE CAR IN TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY INFORMED US THAT THERE IS A SERVICE BULLETIN FOR THAT TYPE OF PROBLEM.. WATER LEAKS FROM THE ROOF OF THE CAR INTO THE CABIN, WHICH DISABLES THE IGNITION SWITCH AND PREVENTS THE KEY TO BE REMOVED FROM THE CAR. *TR

I HAVE A 2007 ACURA RDX; NOTICED THE RECALL ON LEXUS/TOYOTA; MY VEHICLE HAS RUBBER MATS OVER THE CARPET MATS AND RECENTLY ACCELERATED; THE PEDAL GOT CAUGHT IN THE MAT AND I HAD TO PLACE THE CAR IN NEUTRAL TO AVOID A COLLISION UNTIL I COULD GET PEDAL TO RELEASE. *TR

VEHICLE THAT I BOUGHT HAS KNOWN ISSUES WITH MISSING REAR DRIVING DIFFERENTIAL BOLT, THIS IS INDEED A SAFETY CONCERN. I HAVE HAD THIS VEHICLE FOR UNDER A YEAR AND SINCE I'VE HAD IT IT'S HAD A RATTLE THAT I THOUGHT WAS COMING FROM THE MUFFLER ADDED PUT ONTO A LYFT AND TO MY SURPRISE THE REAR SUSPENSION AND DIFFERENTIAL BOLT/MACHINE JUST SO HAPPEN TO NOT BE THERE. WHEN DRIVING AS CAR HITS SMALL OR MEDIUM BUMPS CORNER ONLY PULLS IT'S ALSO RATTLES DO TO THIS BUSHING MISSING.

TURBO IS ISSUING CHECK ENGINE CODE P2263. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 ACURA RDX. WHEN THE CLIMATE CONTROL SYSTEM IS PLACED ON AUTO AND THE WEATHER IS WARM, THE RECIRCULATION WILL NOT SHUT OFF. THIS DOES NOT ALLOW FRESH AIR TO ENTER THE VEHICLE, AND FORCES THE CONTACT TO KEEP THE RECIRCULATION ON MANUAL. THE FAILURE HAS OCCURRED EVER SINCE THE VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED. ACURA STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS DESIGNED TO PERFORM IN THAT MANNER. THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 13,000 AND FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 7. UPDATED 07/29/08 *BF UPDATED 08/01/08

AFTER I DROVE MY 2007 UP MY DRIVEWAY ON A HILL, PARKED, AND GOT OUT, THE CAR BEGAN MOVING BACK OUT IN REVERSE DAMAGING THE CAR DOOR AND GARAGE WALL. THIS CAR ALSO WILL ACCELERATE ON ITS OWN EVEN WHILE ON THE BRAKES. MY DEALERSHIP AND ACURA WAS UNWILLING TO ADDRESS THE CONCERN. *TR

I OWNED A 2007 ACURA RDX. ALMOST ONE MONTH AGO, ON AUG 29TH, 2018, I WAS REAR-ENDED ON A FREEWAY, WHILE STOPPED DUE TO TRAFFIC. THE POLICE REPORT SHOWED THE AT-FAULT DRIVER WAS DRIVING AT ABOUT 50MPH. THE IMPACT FROM THIS ACCIDENT BROKE BOTH THE FRONT DRIVER AND PASSENGER SEATBACKS AND HEADRESTS, WHERE THEY WERE ALMOST TOUCHING THE BACK SEATS AND WE WERE LAYING DOWN LOOKING AT THE ROOF OF THE CAR WHEN THE CAR CAME TO COMPLETE STOP. I DON'T THINK THIS SHOULD HAVE HAPPENED AND SEATBACKS SHOULD BE ABLE TO SUSTAINED THE IMPACT AND SUPPORT OUR BODIES IN AN ACCIDENT. THE BROKEN SEATBACKS WOULD HAVE PINNED, SEVERELY CRUSHED AND INJURED BACK SEATS PASSENGERS. I'M CURRENTLY LOOKING FOR A REPLACEMENT CAR, AND HAVE A HIGH SAFETY CONCERN ON THE SEATS STRUCTURE WITH ANY ACURA MODEL. I CONTACTED ACURA TO FIND OUT THAT THIS IS NOT A COMMON ISSUE, HOWEVER I DID NOT RECEIVE ANY RESPONSE AT ALL. I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO AT THIS POINT.

PURCHASED NEW 2007 ACURA RDX IN JULY 2007 WITH MICHELIN PILOT TIRES. ON 5/5/08 WITH LESS THAN 14,000 MILES, EXPERIENCED SIDEWALL BLOWOUT ON I-270 IN MARYLAND WHILE TRAVELING UNDER THE SPEED LIMIT (TRAFFIC). PURCHASED NEW TIRE AT ACURA. I WAS TOLD IT WAS CAUSED BY RUNNING OVER SOMETHING IN THE ROAD (WHICH I DON'T RECALL DOING). 8/22/08 NOTICED ANOTHER TIRE WAS LOW ON AIR. THERE WAS A SMALL HOLE IN THE TREAD AREA SO THE TIRE WAS REPAIRED AT LOCAL SHOP. AGAIN WAS TOLD I RAN OVER SOMETHING. ON NOVEMBER, EXPERIENCED BLOWOUT WITH A LARGE HOLE IN THE SIDEWALL WHILE TRAVELING AT HIGHWAY SPEED ON I-70 IN MARYLAND. BROUGHT CAR TO ACURA AGAIN AND WAS TOLD I WAS JUST UNLUCKY AND AGAIN, RAN OVER "SOMETHING" IN THE ROAD. AT THIS POINT, I HAD NOW REPLACED TWO TIRES AND HAD A THIRD REPAIRED. ON DECEMBER 5, I DROVE TO PENNSYLVANIA. THE CAR SAT PARKED ALL DAY. AT NIGHT, WHEN I WENT OUT, THE REMAINING TWO ORIGINAL TIRES WERE BOTH FLAT. I HAD TO STAY OVERNIGHT AND WAIT UNTIL MORNING. I FOUND A LOCAL TIRES PLUS AN PURCHASED FOUR NEW BRIDGESTONE TIRES AS I DID NOT FEEL THE MICHELINS WERE SAFE. IN 17 MONTHS, WITH 22,000 MILES ON THE VEHICLE, I HAVE PURCHASED 6 TIRES AND SPENT OVER $1400. I DRIVE MOSTLY HIGHWAY ON WELL MAINTAINED AND HEAVILY TRAVELED ROADS. I DON'T SPEED OR DRIVE RECKLESSLY. THE VEHICLE IS KEPT IN MY GARAGE OVERNIGHT AND HAD BEEN SERVICED REGULARLY AT ACURA. IN OVER 30 YEARS OF DRIVING, I HAVE ONLY HAD ONE OTHER FLAT TIRE. I HAVE HAD 4 IN 7 MONTHS. ALL 4 OF THE ORIGINAL MICHELIN TIRES GAVE OUT. I AM FORTUNATE THAT I WAS NOT INJURED BUT I AM CONVINCED THE TIRES ARE DEFECTIVE AND DANGEROUS. *TR
