2003 Acura MDX Other or unknown Problems

“The MDX srs malfunction-electrical noise surges. The car is making electrical noise surges, I cannot start the car. The shift interlock, when I put the car in park it continues to roll.”

“I think it is about time that we all push NHTSA to make Acura/honda recall all these MDX from 2001 to 2012 to have these torque converters and transmissions replaced and fixed once and for all!!! This is very dangerous as there is no sign when these cars are going to lock up and go from 75 MPH down to 40 MPH and then stays at 40mph till you can get off the highway to an exit. I swear maybe somebody needs to get seriously hurt when they get rear ended by someone that has no clue why you have come to a sudden change of speed. …”

“I received a recall notice and made an appointment to have my vehicle repaired. Upon taking it to the dealership and them fixing it I drove home my car immediately began running hot. I called the dealership back and he told me to bring it back in. I was issued a loaner vehicle. I received a call stating that my radiator had somehow come loose and that my engine was blown. I was so upset so I called back and told him my mechanic was coming with me now all of a sudden the engine is not blown but instead warped and can be machined. …”

“The MDX navigation system gives verbal and visual directions. I tend to rely on the verbal directions in the city. Sometimes the system cannot determine its position because it cannot get sufficient satellite signals. It gives no verbal clue this is happening, it justs gives directions as if it knew where it was (presumably via dead reckoning). There is a visual cue, but it is very hard to see during the day. The small letters GPS turn white when the signal is weak. This happened to me first while in boston on 22jan2003. It started giving me directions as if I were several blocks away. …”

“My car along with many other acuras between 2001-2005 have a problem with a very significant shudder vibration that lasts a few secs, usually at speeds between 35-40. If you read the blogs you will see hundreds of other consumers say the same thing: Acura says they can't replicate the noise. When the car is out of warranty, then suddenly they can replicate it and they say they have to replace either the torque converter or the entire transmission, charging $2000 +. This is a major problem and should have been a recall, please help us hold Acura accountable for this known problem! …”
