About These NHTSA Complaints:
The NHTSA is the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints can be spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem. See the Back button — blue bar at the very top of the page — to explore more.
We purchases a 2010 Acura Rdx. My wife noted the fuel indicator stated she had 20 miles left before empty. Before she could exit for gas (within 5 miles the vehicle ran out of gas). She was on a freeway in a very dangerous area at rush hour. The police brought in back up and set flares, then ordered the car to be towed due to the danger to my wife and the officers responding. We alerted our salesman at Acura. He stated this was the 4th complaint he personally received about running out of gas due to a faulty calibration on the fuel indicator. I believe this issue has the potential to result in injuries if not deaths. In my opinion, a warning letter should be issued by Acura.
