“I am writing because I just received a safety recall notice from Acura relating to: NHTSA action number : ea13002. My daughter was involved in an accident (she's ok!) where she had to swerve to avoid an oncoming car that had drifted into her lane rounding a left hand bend. Our 2005 Acura MDX went out of control despite her attempts to control the vehicle, which she did after it had blown out two tires. …”
NHTSA complaint #10509955, filed 2013-04, 70,000 miles“While driving on a highway our Acura MDX car's front right rim had an unexpected rupture as a result the car stopped in the middle of the road. On first reaction, we thought we had a flat tire but later we found out the tire was ok but the tire rim was weak and had a hole leading to release of air pressure giving a feeling of a flat tire. We took our car to nearest dealer at 70 miles from the scene and paid to change the rim. The dealer mentioned they had never seen anything like this before. …”
NHTSA complaint #10347134, filed 2010-08, 79,249 miles“When making a sharp turn on hot days the car makes a grinding noise like something is grabbing the tire. It slows the car, hands the steering wheel and then the VSA hazard light comes on. It is a recurring issue and mechanics have not been able to diagnose.”
