MDX

  • miles
I was driving approximately 20 mph when the engine completely shut down without warning. The car was still in drive, the ignition on, when it suddenly shut down and decelerated. I managed to make a right turn onto my street, although the power steering was not functioning. I put the car in park and restarted it with no problem. I did have a small wallet (dimensions were @ 4in by 5in, weight @ 3 oz) attached to the key while it was in the ignition. I contacted the Acura dealership the same day and was told by the technician that he was unaware of any problems with or recall on the ignition.
