So 4 times this morning, my Acura was not very responsive when I tried to push on the gas pedal to accelerate. One time on the freeway I was trying to accelerate to merge onto it. It was not very responsive so I pushed harder on the gas and it felt like it suddenly made a weird noise.

Then 3 times when I got off the freeway and would try to accelerate from a stop, it would be non-responsive and slow to go. Then I would push on the gas harder and at about 35 miles per hour the RPM gage would jump higher then go back down.

It has happened before but only seems to be in the morning. Is anyone else experiencing this?

RDX Advanced 3.2L V6

I thought something was wrong with the car ever since I got bought it. After reading a lot of blogs, I found out a transmission fluid change helps a bit. Did the fluid change and it got better but the issue never actually got fixed.

Since we purchased this car there has been hesitation at acceleration since day one. This is frustrating and dangerous.
