MDX

  • miles
My 2017 Acura MDX has many issues with both the transmission and electrical. It has an issue shifting between gears, makes a loud sound like metal on wash board, then loses power for 3-5 seconds. I went to put the car in drive and it would not go in drive recently. I've now had to replace the transmission at 79,006 miles. The electrical system lights up when driving telling me my electronic parking brake has been engaged and also that there is emission system issues. My daughter was terrified and crying since i had a loss of power at the same time my dash lit up and I had to get across 5 lanes of traffic to the shoulder of road. The towing company had to remove battery cable to get my electric parking break to release. This is a dangerous and scary automobile

The contact owns a 2017 Acura MDX. The contact stated that while driving at 45 mph, the vehicle stalled as the emission and parking brake warning lights illuminated on the instrument panel. The contact stated that after experiencing the failure, the vehicle resumed normal operation as the warning remained illuminated on the instrument panel. The contact then took the vehicle to lindsay Acura (5880 scarborough blvd, columbus, oh 43232) where they were unable to duplicate or diagnose the failure.
