problem #1

MDX

  • Automatic transmission
  • 44,000 miles

A few months ago my new battery has started to die. Dealership was unable to diagnose this issue and suggested number of solutions. First solution $80 did not work. From the second time they were able to identify the problem and found that Bluetooth unit takes 10 times more power that it's supposed to take and as result drains the battery. Acura declined to recognize this issue although there are many reports regarding the same issue across the internet. Dealership asked $450 for replacing this unit but I was able to find it for $200 online. Due to number of complaints it sounds like there is a definitely problem with those units in Acura vehicles.
