“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. …”
NHTSA complaint #11000156, filed 2017-06, 9,249 miles“During morning commute on highway multiple warning lights came on, including electronic stability control, emissions, lane departure, and power steering. On rapid acceleration vehicle had pronounced power loss, which obviously could be dangerous. This is the second time this very thing has happened to the vehicle. It's at least the 4th time multiple warning lights have come on, and the second for the loss of power on acceleration. The dealership consulted Acura technical support the last time and said they had identified and fixed the problem.”
