problem #2

Apr 222019

RDX

  • 15,000 miles
Vehicle loses almost all engine power under hard acceleration. This fault requires you to stop the vehicle and restart to continue. Engine light flashes yellow. The first time this occurred was at highway speed in a passing situation. The second time was during a freeway merge. Both instances could have ended badly as the freeways were busy and other vehicles around me were traveling at speed. The first incident was reported to the dealership and to Acura corporate. Nothing was noted as faulty or corrected.

RDX

  • 1,600 miles
The engine shut down in the middle of an intersection in traffic, while in motion. The car refused to start up again, indicating a transmission failure. The car also refused to shut down, and the electronics are confused. This is the third incident that I had with this vehicle.
