I have a 2013 acura mdx with an estimated 87k miles. Over the past 3 months, the engine will cut off while i'm driving and the steering wheel and brakes lock up. This has happened about 5 times in a three-month period. There are no warning lamps on my dashboard and no codes appeared during the diagnostic tests. My mechanic is unable to reproduce the issue. I have two young sons and am terrified of driving them in the mdx. The engine failure happens very randomly as it's cut off while driving at varying speeds.

Battery has had to be replace three times during ownership of car. Also currently experiencing for the third time since purchase in fall of 2013, total electrical failure. Lights turn on and off w/o prompting, car doesn't turn over with proper key usage. Dashboard lights warning flash, check engine, tpms. Majority of error codes are loss of communication between all modules. Electric windows and electric seat adjustment non-responsive.This happens while the car is parked and in the "p" position and remains stationary.

Per the mechanic many acura's having issues with handsfreelink bluetooth which doesn't turn off resulting draining battery. We just replaced our battery and issue still persists. I called acura and they said they are aware of the issue but can not do anything since our vin is not part of the recall. This can be a big safety issue since people have experienced cars stopped mid road due to no power. Please help since acura is ignoring safety of their consumers! Reference link for the issue which has been reported by many people.

I received notification of excessive oil consumption affecting my vehicle from acura (2013 mdx) i took the car as instructed to bridgewater acura and they performed an oil consumption test. According to the manufacturer the car had to consume at least 1 quart of oil per 1,000 miles. The dealer stated that my car showed that my car consumed 1 quart at the first 1,000 miles, and 1/2 quart each time at the following 3 -1,000 mile mark. So acura would not pay for the repair necessary to correct the problem. After this i had an new oil change done and after traveling 4,260 miles and before i was due for another oil change the low level indicator came on. Sure enough the service department of dch honda in old bridge, nj verified that my car was out of oil. The dipstick was not registering any oil on it. I had at that time an oil change done to save my engine even if according to manufacturer's recommendation and car computer i was not due for one for another 3,000 miles. My car is obviously burning more oil than expected at 77,000 miles on the engine. I am not an aggressive driver and don't idle the car. I suspect the test was not documented correctly since i am consuming close to 5 quarts of oil per 4,260 traveled miles. I would like to have a new test done and properly witnessed by me this time.

Backup camera has extremely poor performance in low light or night time settings if there is no other ambient light like street lights. Reverse lights are not sufficient to be able to see obstacles or dangers in the backup monitor. Body panels produce a blind spot requiring the backup camera to see behind you. The backup camera has shifted angle slightly causing the markings intended to allow backup into parking spaces to be off center and guide the vehicle to an inappropriate parking angle. This low light performance issue has been known to owners for some time, in light of acura's new recall related to backup cameras this warrants investigation as well.
