2017 Acura RDX Electrical system Problems

“This vechicle starts to loose power, jerky acceleration then cuts out completely. All the lights come on including check engine and remains on until I tak it to the dealer. Purchased in march 2018, this is a continual problem and getting worse. Three times in the past month. The dealer kept the vehicle for three weeks from june 20, 2019, after three (3) weeks he told me there was nothing wrong. Problem occured again today, july 28, 2019.”

“9,249 miles on a 2017 Acura RDX. Check engine light came on while in motion on a highway at approximately 65 MPH with notable loss of power (once stopped it took a full 30 seconds to get to 15 MPH). Let car sit for 2 hours as manual stated. Once restarted and driven for approximately 20 feet all lights on dashboard where flashing and again virtually no power. Vehicle was towed to the dealership. Tech performed hds scan and retrieved error codes: p0304, p0 05, and p0306...4/5/6. Dealership claims was all due to needing a software update. …”

“My car alarm starting going off at random throughout the night, last night and day today. The car also started flickering all the dashboard lights while the car was turned off completely. This seems like it’s the keyless access unit. I don’t know how the battery is not dead yet but seems like it will be tomorrow. The car has not been diagnosed by a dealership or independent service center but I’m seeing many people say they’ve had this same issue happen to them with the same year, make and model. …”

“I was at a stop light, car was stopped, the electronics on the vehicle looked like it went through a reboot, a/c blower fluctuated (turned off then back on), all displays went out and restarted like it does when you start the car. When the traffic light turned green, and I stepped on the gas, the car shuddered and hesitated, like the transmission, abs and traction control were all going haywire. Then the car drove fine. As long as I do not slow down too much or stop. Once I got home and had to back up into the garage, it went through that haywire cycle again. …”

“Since we have had the car we have had multiple issues with the car jerking and shifting hard after driving in S mode then going to standard mode. Dealership told us the transmission is sensitive in our model year and if we go 1 mile overdue for a transmission fluid flush we will have shudder/jerking/ hard shifting. (we have changed the transmission fluid 1-2x since have had the car, which is within range of recommended). Last episode- battery was dead, jumpstarted and car jerking at low speeds to the point I did not drive it and had it told. …”
