As I pulled the car into the parking lot slowly and was about to put it in park I realised the car suddenly accelerated and jerked up on the curb/walkway. As there was no place for me to manouver I tried to turn it to the left and hit a wall to stop the car. During this whole process the engine never stopped.

I purchased a 2013 Acura MDX from Honda of bowie on July 1, 2O16. That same day I had to bring it back because the air conditioner did not work. On Friday, July 9 I had to bring it back because the navigation does not work, there is a grinding noise under the car and the steering wheel shakes when driving at a high speed. I believe this car has several issues and should not have been sold to me. The car had just come in (as I was told)an D it had not gone through the process requirerd for used cars before being sold. I initially went there to trade my Kia and buy a used car. I was told I had to buy a new car because of the negative equity. So I did not trade my Kia and bought a used Acura for 40,000. This car has many issue with it,

Torque converter problem...... I bought a used 2012 MDX with 4300 miles 5 months later I had this issue. I took the car to a Acura dealer and they fixed it but I did feel safe so I traded it in for a newer model thinking it would be better...long behold the 2013 MDX I got did the same thing 5 month later. The dealer never told me after bring the first car back that this was an issue with these cars. And sold me a second one, which by the way I loss $8000 on the first car for trading it in so soon.I only traded it in because I did feel safe and I told them that..lucky I bought warranty because the 2013 MDX had 6700 mile and warranty was up......
