I-??ve been having a problem with my 2014 Acura RDX for dim low-beam headlights for some time now. I took my Acura to my dealership approximately 5-6 months ago, for regular service and reported the problem of the dim low-beam headlights, which at the time also seemed uncentered. At that time, the dealership said there was no problem found with the headlights. No warning alerts from the dashboard ever came on. In the meantime, the dim low-beam headlights progressively became worse, I almost missed the turn onto my street and scarcely missed a young biker after the turn. The lights were barely operational. Now, I am no longer able to drive my Acura at night at all. All night errands, appointments, etc., are thank God, done by my 2 children which is definitely not convenient for them either. I have noticed other customers making complaints regarding some of these same issues. Please help.

I recently purchased this vehicle and had nit driven it at night. On 07/20/22 at approximately 930pm I had to pick my son up at a friends home. We live in Florida and thunderstorms are routine here. While driving I noticed my visibility of the road was not clear. I pulled over during the storm and visually checked that my headlamps were on. They were except that the lighting was dim. I proceeded to pick up my son and discovered that on a dark road I could not see 5 feet in front of me. I continued my trip and witnessed a dog run across the front of my vehicle. I swerved and applied my brakes. I did not see this animal until it was right on top of me. I turned on my high beams and completed my trip with them on knowing that Law Enforcement could have easily cited me for it. The next day I purchased the two best and brightest bulbs I could find and had them installed in the car. This did not change anything. The headlights are still dim. I have read on message boards that this is a known problem with this vehicle. Have any accidents been reported citing dim headlights" Why has the manufacturer not issued a recall" I have not driven at night since the incident and would like some input from you.

I was driving on I-87 South on a smooth strip of road, which was recently repaved. I heard an explosion and glass shattering. Glanced around but all windows were intact. At the first stop I opened my sunroof visor and shards of broken glass showered down from the shattered sun roof. My car is a 2014 Acura Rdx with tech package

I was on my way to work. I was coming down the highway when suddenly we heard what sounded like a rock or an other object hit the top of my vehicle but, we didn't see the rock or object. It was a hard hit per the sound. My son was in the vehicle with me. He pulled back the sunroof cover and we saw that the sunroof was shattered. As I dropped my son off at work, we were able to further examine the damage. The shattered pieces of glass was blowing off the roof as I continued to drive the vehicle making it a safety concern. Therefore, I had to get the sunroof repaired immediately. I contacted the Acura dealership first for the repair and they informed me that they didn't repair sunroofs. After shopping around for an affordable price, I took it to a auto glass repair shop and they repaired it. I found myself with an unexpected out-of- pocket expensive repair cost of a little less than $500. I was later informed of an current investigation on exploding sunroofs. I'm wondering if that's what I experienced with vehicle's sunroof. I do have photos but not able to upload at this time.

On Friday, July 7, the sunroof on my 2014 Acura Rdx exploded while driving on a highway. I heard a sound like a bomb going off, then I saw glass fly behind my car. Fortunately there were no cars behind me at that time and the liner inside my car was closed or glass would have flown into the car and most likely hurt myself and my client. I called Acura dealer, and they said they never heard of such a thing. After searching on the internet, I found that this is a chronic problem and hundai and Audi have issued voluntary recalls of sun roof glass and that many other car manufacturers have had this problem. Here is a link to a tv news story on the Acura Rdx : www.nbcnewyork.com/news/local/shattered-glass-sunroof--293692881.html. there are thousands of complaints about this problem at the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and there are class action suits underway. I am in the process of asking Acura to pay for the repair which will be about $1,200 ($367 for the glass and the rest labor charges). With all of the sun roofs out there, this is a safety issue for people in the car and outside of the car when there is flying glass. According to reports, thinning of the sun roof glass after 2010 could be partly responsible as car manufacturers attempted to light weight for better gas mileage. Also, the glass used is not the same as windshield glass.. I am hoping this report will make others aware of this safety problem.

Exterior mirrors present an extreme safety hazard since they are not properly placed or adjusted to allow a proper blind-spot pickup of vehicles. They can not be adjusted to a position angled enough to show the blind spot area. Extremely dangerous flaw.

We have two 2014 Rdx's. wife hit a deer with damage to the right front light and right front quarter panel. Suppose to be a $3700 repair but when body shop drove Rdx into their building it caught fire and now we have a totaled 40,000 Rdx. Everybody has said they can't ever remember a Acura ever catching on fire. In talking with a Acura mechanic he mentioned something about they had some electrical issues on these vehicles but nothing was proven. We are waiting on the results from the electrical engineers that the insurance people have hired to try to determine if there is a problem with it's manufacturing or something else they are asking if any thing was leaking from the vehicle and as far as we know it wasn't leaking since we kept driving it until we took it to the body shop. My problem is I don't want to park the other Rdx in my garage not knowing if the vehicle has a manufacturing electrical problem. The mechanic told me to disconnect my battery cable if I was worried. I don't fine that as a solution to the problem. The other problem we have is the car was being driven and they pull it into their shop where they have worked on Honda's and Acura's for a lot of years and this model catches on fire. Something isn't right. My wife took some pictures on her phone of her Rdx.

Security system engages itself when your in the car with all systems shut down. Also engages itself when the car is on and in gear. Alarm goes off and security light goes on and cant be stopped by key fob or turning the car off. Then turned the car off and then it would not start alarm still sounding then it started while alarm on and alarm light on and drove a distance with alarm sounding then stoped and turned car ofg and alarm went off and did not restart itself again. My concerns have been brought to the rallye Acura desler in roslyn NY where car purchased since March but no response. I am concerned that alarm engages itself when I am driving and may turn the car off. Must be a short or defect in the system. Also the alarm is able to be turned on when all windows are wide open. These are not only saftey concerns but security issues as well. The car alarm in progress can be driven off and seemingly halted when stopped.

Acura Rdx tech purchased 30 days ago, up-shifted while parking into a parking spot in a parking garage. The vehicle suddenly and violently accelerated when pushing on the brake before a complete stop and ran into the chain linked fence. The driver got a seat belt burn on the left upper chest and soft tissue injury to the neck. The front part of the vehicle got significant body damage. A couple incidences of the car violently upshifted when moving from a stop were also noted before this accident happened. The car was bought brand new a month ago. This is the exact similar incidence to the complaint # 10510220. Acurazine community forum has other incidences similar to my accident. This is a major safety concern. The vehicle was brought to the Acura dealer for investigation.
