MDX

  • 45,000 miles
Multiple times I have been traveling on the highway and my car would suddenly decrease in speed and stall out. I would go from 75mph to 45mph very quickly. It would then suddenly accelerate again and go back to normal. This is extremely dangerous and could lead to a deadly accident.

MDX

  • 20,000 miles
My vehicle was parked under my car port immediately after returning from the grocery store. As I was unloading the car I saw and smelled smoke which then erupted into a fire coming from the engine compartment. We called 911 and when the fd arrived the car was totally engulfed as was my building. Suspect fuel line leak. Insurance company investigating. Fd says Acura MDX was cause of fire. Dangerous situation as no prior indicators from vehicle, recalls, etc.. photos available if needed. If gone unnoticed, entire structure could have been lost.
