ENGINE
WE HAVE HAD THE RDX FOR 18 MONTHS AND HAVE PUT 5,000 MILES ON HER. DURING THIS TIME THE ENGINE HAS STALLED ON US PERHAPS 6 TO AS 8 TIMES; THE STALLS HAVE BEEN AND WORRISOME, COUPLE SECONDS. THE STALLS HAVE OCCURRED MERGING ON THE FREEWAY, AT INTERSECTIONS WHILE MAKING A LEFT OR JUST PUSHING DOWN THE PEDAL WHEN YOUR CRUISING. WE HAVE HAD SEVERAL CLOSE CALLS. YOU DON'T WANT TO BE AROUND HEAVY TRAFFIC WHEN THE STALL HAPPENS. IT IS DANGEROUS.

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, STEERING
THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM AND RELATED SYSTEMS SPORADICALLY FAIL TO OPERATE AND IN SOME CASES ATTEMPT TO TAKE OVER CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE MAKING IT EXTREMELY UNSAFE WHILE DRIVING. WHEN THE DEALERSHIP (SPITZER) WAS ALERTED THEY SHOWN NO INTEREST IN EVEN LOOKING AT THE VEHICLE. THE PROBLEMS PERSIST ON A DAILY BASIS.

ENGINE, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
THE VEHICLE STALLS OUT (LIMP MODE) WHEN ACCELERATING PAST 60 MPH. IT WILL NOT GO ABOVE 3000 RPMS. ONCE THAT HAPPENS, IT IS DIFFICULT TO ACCELERATE AT ALL, EVEN AT VERY LOW SPEEDS. I CAN PRESS THE PEDAL TO THE FLOOR AND NOTHING HAPPENS. THE VEHICLE SHAKES CONSIDERABLY WHEN IDLE.

ENGINE, POWER TRAIN, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
WHILE DRIVING AT A CONSISTENT RATE OF SPEED ON A 65 MPH HIGHWAY THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY AND WITHOUT WARNING LOST ENGINE POWER. THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO RAPIDLY DROP SPEED AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WOULD BLINK WHEN THE ACCELERATOR WAS DEPRESSED. I WAS FORCED TO ABANDON THE HIGHWAY AND PULL OVER ONTO THE SHOULDER - NOT IN AN EMERGENCY LANE - IN BETWEEN NORTH AND SOUTH BOUND TRAFFIC BECAUSE THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT ACCELERATE OVER 20 MPH OR EXCEED 2,000 RPMS. AFTER 3 HOURS OF WAITING IN THIS DANGEROUS LOCATION ACURA ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE WAS UNABLE TO LOCATE A TOW TRUCK. I TURNED THE VEHICLE OFF AND BACK ON AND NOTICED THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CEASED BLINKING. I THEN PROCEEDED TO RETURN HOME AND THE PROBLEM RETURNED A SECOND TIME, THIS TIME ACCOMPANIED WITH NUMEROUS INDICATOR LIGHTS (E.G., AWD PROBLEM, ABS PROBLEM, ETC). THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO POHANKA ACURA IN CHANTILLY, VIRGINIA. I WAS TOLD THE FIRST TIME THEY CLEARED THE CODES THEY RETURNED, BUT AFTER A SECOND TIME THEY DID NOT. THEY WERE NOT ABLE TO REPLICATE THE PROBLEM, DID NOT FIX ANYTHING, AND SAID IT WAS CAUSED BY FUEL CHOICE. THIS IS SIGNIFICANT PROBLEM AND SAFETY RISK KNOWN TO ACURA. THERE IS A PATENT HISTORY OF ACURA CHOOSING TO NOT IDENTIFY THE ROOT CAUSE, ASSOCIATE THIS ANOMALY WITH FUEL CHOICE, AND RETURN THE VEHICLE TO THE OWNER. IN MY OPINION THIS IS A NEGLIGENT BUSINESS PRACTICE AND ACURA SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY INJURIES OR DAMAGES ASSOCIATED WITH THESE UNEXPECTED, UNANNOUNCED "LIMP MODE" EVENTS.

ENGINE, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
VEHICLE GOES INTO A "LIMP" MODE DURING HIGH SPEED FREEWAY DRIVING WITH LITTLE OR NO POWER DURING HEAVY RAIN. THIS HAS OCCURRED 5 TIMES IN THE 1ST 20,000 MILES AND DEALER CANNOT FIND PROBLEM AFTER 3 ATTEMPTS. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS AND POTENTIALLY CATASTROPHIC SITUATION . THIS HAS RENDERED THE VEHICLE NOT USEABLE DUE TO THE SAFETY CONCERNS.

SERVICE BRAKES
FRONT BRAKES MAKE NOISE AND YOU CAN FEEL THE ABRASIVE RUBBING. I HAVE HAD BOTH THE BRAKE PADS AND ROTORS REPLACED AR APPROX 2500 MILES ONLY TO HAVE THE SYMPTOM REOCCURRENCE ABOUT 500 MILES LATER. DEALER SAYS A TICKET HAS BEEN OPENED WITH ACURA TO REMANUFACTURE BRAKE PADS BUT I HAVE NOT HAD AN UPDATE IN OVER TWO MONTHS I THINK. HAPPENS WHEN APPLYING BRAKES GOING ABOUT 40-45 MPH

ENGINE
2020 ACURA RDX WITH APPROX 6,200 MILES. DRIVING FROM PITTSBURGH, PA TO NEW JERSEY. I REACHED NEW JERSEY AFTER DRIVING FROM PITTSBURGH. THERE WAS MODERATE TO HEAVY RAIN SHOWERS DURING THE DRIVE. THE RAIN ENDED PRIOR TO ME ENTERING NEW JERSEY. I EXITED THE JERSEY TURNPIKE FOR THE ON RAMP TO 195 EAST. I WAS GOING APPROXIMATELY 45 MILES MPH WHEN I PRESSED THE GAS PEDAL TO ACCELERATE SO I COULD SAFELY ENTER TRAFFIC. I COULD FEEL THE ENGINE GIVE WAY AS I PRESSED THE PEDAL. THE CAR DECELERATED AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ILLUMINATED. I PULLED OFF THE HIGHWAY TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND PUT ON THE FLASHERS. I LET THE CAR RUN AT IDLE. THE CHECK ENGINE LITE WENT OFF SO I TRIED TO ACCELERATE THE VEHICLE WITH NO LUCK. THE ENGINE WOULD REV A LITTLE BUT THE CAR WOULD ONLY ACCELERATE TO APPROXIMATELY 25 MPH. I TRIED THIS MULTIPLE TIMES. I WAS NEAR AN EXIT AND THE VEHICLE WAS ABLE TO MOVE AT A SLOW SPEED SO I DROVE APPROXIMATELY 2 MILES TO A FRIEND'S HOUSE. AGAIN, THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT GO OVER 25 MILES AN HOUR. AFTER REACHING MY FRIEND'S HOUSE, I TURNED OFF THE IGNITION. ABOUT 1 HOUR AND 30 MINUTES LATER I TURNED ON THE VEHICLE. THIS SEEMED TO FIX THE PROBLEM AND I WAS ABLE TO CONTINUE HOME WITH NO FURTHER ISSUES. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT REMAINED OFF. ACURA LOOKED AT THE CAR BUT THERE WAS NO RECORD OF THE PROBLEM AND THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE ISSUE. NOT SURE IF IT WAS AN ELECTRICAL ISSUE OR AN ENGINE ISSUE.

ENGINE, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
ON 7/22/2020, I WAS ENTERING THE MASS PIKE FROM I-495 OUTSIDE OF BOSTON. I ACCELERATED TO GET AROUND A BOX TRUCK AND SUDDENLY THE ENGINE LIGHT STARTED FLASHING AND THE CAR STARTED TO LOSE POWER. NO MATTER HOW MUCH I STEPPED ON THE GAS, THE CAR KEPT LOSING SPEED. THANKFULLY, I WAS NEAR A REST STOP AND WAS ABLE TO PULL TO THE SHOULDER (FROM THE MIDDLE LANE) AND HAD ENOUGH MOMENTUM TO GET THE CAR IN THE PARKING LOT. THANK GOODNESS IT WAS NIGHTTIME AND WITH COVID, THERE AREN'T AS MANY CARS ON THE ROAD. THIS COULD HAVE ENDED VERY BADLY FOR MY CHILDREN AND ME IF TRAFFIC LEVELS WERE WHAT THEY USUALLY ARE IN THAT AREA. AS SOON AS I PUT THE CAR IN PARK, THE ENGINE LIGHT WENT OFF. I CALLED ACURA ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE AND TURNED THE CAR OFF. ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE TRANSFERED ME TO AN ACURA SERVICE DEPARTMENT ON THE WEST COAST THAT WAS STILL OPEN. THE SERVICE TECH I SPOKE TO SAID SHE NEVER HEARD OF THE PROBLEM AND "MAYBE" IF I TURNED IT OFF AND TURNED IT BACK ON, IT MIGHT BE OKAY. I ALSO GOOGLED AND SAW THAT THIS EXACT SITUATION HAS HAPPENED TO OTHER OWNERS AND THAT AFTER TURNING THE CAR OFF AND BACK ON AGAIN, THEIR CARS WERE FINE. I DID THE SAME, AND THE CAR WENT BACK INTO ITS NORMAL MODE AND I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE THE REST OF THE WAY HOME WITHOUT FURTHER INCIDENT.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
WHILE DRIVING EAST BOUND ON I-64 AT 65 MILES PER HOUR IN THE LEFT LANE THE VEHICLE COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN AND TURNED OFF. WE HAD NO ACCELERATION NO RESPONSE WHATSOEVER. WE COULDN'T GET SAFELY TO THE RIGHT SIDE AND WERE FORCED TO PULL TO THE LEFT NEXT TO THE JERSEY WALL AND IN A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION. 1/3RD OF OUR VEHICLE WAS STILL IN THE LEFT LANE SINCE THERE WAS VERY LITTLE ROOM ON THE LEFT SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY. WE CALLED THE STATE POLICE AND THEY GOT TO THE SCENE APPROX 15 MINUTES LATER. THE ACURA LINK SYSTEM WOULD NOT WORK EITHER. WE COULD HEAR THE ACURA LINK REP BUT THEY COULDN'T HEAR US. A TOW TRUCK WAS DISPATCHED AND WE HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO THE CLOSEST ACURA DEALER. AT THE DEALER THEY INFORMED US THAT THE ISSUE WAS DUE TO A FUEL PUMP RECALL. WE WERE AWARE OF THE RECALL AND TRIED TO HAVE IT ADDRESSED 3 WEEKS PRIOR. OUR COMPLAINT IS THAT THIS FUEL PUMP DEFECT PUT US IN AN EXTREMELY DANGEROUS SITUATION AND WE ARE LUCKY THAT THERE WEREN'T MULTIPLE FATALITIES FROM BEING REAR-ENDED WHILE SHUT DOWN ON THE LEFT SIDE OF A MAJOR INTERSTATE. ACURA NEEDS TO ADDRESS THIS DEFECT WITH ALL SUBJECT VEHICLES IMMEDIATELY.

ENGINE
6 HOURS INTO A CROSS COUNTRY DRIVE, MY WIFE WENT TO PASS A LINE OF SLOWER MOVING CARS IN A DESIGNATED PASSING AREA ON US45 IN MS. AS SHE PUSH DOWN ON THE ACCELERATOR AT 55 MPH, THE CAR DROPPED INTO A LOWER GEAR AS IT ACCELERATED TO 60 MPH, THEN BUCKED AND WHEN INTO LIMP HOME MODE. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT STARTED FLASHING, WITH SPEED DROPPING RAPIDLY TOWARDS 20 MPH. SHE WAS ABLE TO GET SAFELY TOWARDS THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, WHERE SHE SWITCHED OFF THE ENGINE. A MINUTE LATER, SHE RESTARTED THE ENGINE. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS OUT, AND THE CAR RESPONDED AS IF NOTHING HAPPENED FOR THE REMAINING 2 HOUR.DRIVE HOME. I WAS ABLE TO PULL 4 CODES FROM THE OBDII SYSTEM: P0300, P0301, P0304, AND C1555. THE FIRST THREE ARE FOR MISFIRE OF THE IGNITION SYSTEM, WHILE THE LAST IS FOR AN INCOMPATIBLE SCAN TOOL. THE CAR HAD HALF A TANK OF 93 OCTANE GAS, TEMP WAS AROUND 90 WITH HIGH HUMIDITY. THE CAR HAS 25000 MILES. THIS COULD HAVE RESULTED IN A SERIOUS MISHAP IF THERE HAD BEEN SOMEONE BEHIND HER ATTEMPTING TO PASS ALSO. THERE ARE SEVERAL REPORTS OF THE SAME THING HAPPENING TO OTHER 2019 ACURA RDX'S ON THIS REPORTING SITE, AS WELL AS ON AN ACURA RDX FORUM. SOMEONE AT THE NHTSA NEEDS TO GET ACURA TO GET ON THE BALL AND FIX THIS ISSUE BEFORE SOMEONE GETS KILLED.

ENGINE, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM, STEERING
WAS DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY WHEN MY CAR LOST ALL ACCELERATION AND A WHOLE BUNCH OF WARNING LIGHTS WENT ON, STEERING BECAME HARD ETC. GOT IT OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY BARELY. CAR WOULDN'T RESTART, GO INTO NEUTRAL OR ANYTHING. APPARENTLY THE DEALERSHIP SAYS THE RADAR WAS FAULT AND KILLED THE CAR WHILE I WAS DRIVING IT AND THERE WAS NO WAY TO DISABLE THE RADAR. IF THE RADAR IS FAULTY IT WILL KILL ALL PROPULSION AND ALSO THROW MULTIPLE ERRORS IN THE CAR CREATING A HAZARD FOR THE DRIVER. IT SEEMS LIKE THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL.

EXTERIOR LIGHTING
WE PURCHASED OUT VEHICLE A LITTLE OVER A MONTH AGO, BECAUSE OF THE PANDEMIC HAD NOT DRIVEN IT AT NIGHT UNTIL THIS PAST WEEKEND. WHEN RETURNING HOME FROM OUT OF STATE, IT STARTED GETTING DARK LIGHTS WERE TURNED ON AS IT GOT DARKER WE COULD NOTICE THAT YOU COULDN'T SEE ANYTHING IN FRONT OF YOU UNLESS YOU HAS THE HIGH BEAMS ON, WHICH IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE WITH ON A MAJOR HIGHWAY. IT WAS VERY FRIGHTENING GETTING HOME WITHOUT GETTING INTO AN ACCIDENT. WHEN I CHECKED THERE WAS A RECALL JN2 ISSUED FOR THIS SAME PROBLEM. THE RECALL STATES THE FOLLOWING "CONSEQUENCE: DELAMINATION OF THE ALUMINUM FILM MAY DIMINISH OUTPUT OF THE HEADLIGHT, INCREASING THE RISK OF A VEHICLE CRASH. REMEDY: HONDA WILL NOTIFY OWNERS, AND DEALERS WILL REPLACE BOTH OF THE HEADLIGHTS, FREE OF CHARGE" BUT WHEN I CHECKED MY VIN # WAS NOT PART OF THE RECALL, WHICH I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY SINCE WHAT THE RECALL STATES IS WHAT IS HAPPENING WITH OUR CAR. I'VE CALLED AND KEEP GETTING THE RUNAROUND, AND I KEEP GETTING TOLD THERE ARE NO RECALLS FOR THAT VIN# WELL MAYBE THERE SHOULD BE. I JUST WANT MY CAR FIXED TO AVOID A MAJOR ACCIDENT A FATALITY. *TR

AIR BAGS
I PURCHASED A NEW 2020 ACURA RDX IN JANUARY OF 2020. VERY SOON MY WIFE AND I NOTICED THAT FROM TIME TO TIME WHEN SHE WAS SEATED IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT, THE "AIR BAG OFF" LIGHT WOULD REMAIN ILLUMINATED. I WOULD THEN TURN THE CAR OFF AND GENERALLY, UPON RESTARTING THE CAT, THE LIGHT WOULD EXTINGUISH AS DESIGNED, INDICATING THAT THE AIRBAG WAS ARMED AND READY TO PROTECT MY WIFE IN THE EVENT OF A CRASH. SOMETIMES RESTARTING THE CAR WOULD NOT RESOLVE THIS ISSUE AND REPEATED RESTARTING WOULD BE REQUIRED. I TOOK MY VEHICLE INTO THE DEALERSHIP AND AFTER INSPECTION I WAS TOLD THAT THE SYSTEM WAS WORKING AS DESIGNED. I HAVE PHOTOS AND VIDEOS OF THE ISSUE OCCURRING BUT THE DEALERSHIP COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. I HAVE TAKEN THE VEHICLE BACK AT LEAST THREE TIMES WITH THE SAME RESULT. I HAVE CONTACTED ACURA CORPORATION WHO BASICALLY TOLD ME TO GO BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP. THEY DEMONSTRATE NO INTEREST IN MY ISSUE. I HAVE SINCE FOUND SEVERAL OTHERS WITH THE SAME ISSUE WHO HAVE POSTED THEIR ISSUE ON THE WEB. I HAVE ALSO NOTED THAT WHEN THE LIGHT REMAINS ON, THE VEHICLE WILL NOT WARN THE PASSENGER THAT THEIR SEATBELT IS NOT FASTENED. *TR
