An error message always comes on for "the brake system" & "tire pressure sensors". They become problematic when the temp outside drops to 20 and below. Living in connecticut during the winter time a lot of our friends and family members recognized this issue with their acura rdx's and mdx's. As soon as you turn the vehicle on the error messages engage and the brake pedal feels different from the normal. As soon as the car warms up or the outside temp goes up higher than 30 degrees it goes away. And while driving the vehicle took longer to stop and i had to stomp on the brake pedal hard (going 20mph)

Takata recall called acura national , told to call acura dealership. Dealership doesn't know when new part will be available and doesn't have loaner car to give me. Car is being driven by my 18 y/o daughter for school commute. Repair will be more than 60 days and there is no provision for temporary replacement for my older 2009 car when i know a recent replacement was already installed on a 2016 rdx in nearby norwalk, connecticut dealership.

"takata recall" nothing has happened and that is the problem. I got the recall notice in february 2016 and i just checked and the fix is still not available. I am patient but 9 months seems like too long to have to wait to have a dangerous airbag corrected.
