The vehicle has made moaning sound coming from the rear of the vehicle after making a turn since I purchased the vehicle (used). The sound is only present moving forward; not in reverse. The sound got progressively worse over time (2 years). Problem was diagnosed today due to lack of lubrication in the precision all-wheel-steering rear toe control actuators. The sound (Moan) occurs when Making Small Turns. The dealer service tech explained this is common on 2014-2016 Acura RLX. The repairs are usually performed after the warranty expires; Cost: $4,000
Acura issued TSB No. 13-041 service bulletin dated 3/11/2014. REPAIR TIPSP-AWS RTC Actuators Moan When Making Small Turns
Car seems to counter steer from the rear at times. This could be very dangerous; possibly loose control.
