Defect Description:

POWER TRAIN

Potential Consequences:

My car has been shaking on acceleration but no engine light or any warning popped up. When I called an Acura dealership, they said they would have trouble diagnosing the problem without a light on. A few days later, while accelerating on the highway, my car started shaking violently and lost power. The engine light started flashing. I could have gotten into an accident because I could no longer accelerate on the highway. I had to slowly pull off to a safe stop. This could have been a dangerous and life-threatening situation. Someone could have crashed into me behind me and I could not quickly get into a safe area. I brought it to an Acura dealership and they could not find anything. The engine light had turned off. Though, when I took the car again, the car was still shaking on acceleration. I was afraid to drive at normal speeds since it is extremely safe. I took it to another personal mechanic and he was able to reproduce the problem. He saw there is a service bulletin out for just this problem. The possible cause is “humid air within the intake tract May condense and accumulate excessive moisture during steady driving.” I would have to replace the intercooler system and get the PGM-Fl software updated. This is a safety issue, and Acura has not released any recalls on this. The dealerships are also saying it will not be covered by warranty for me.

STRUCTURE:BODY

Potential Consequences:

When I was approaching my vehicle from the rear, I noticed my back window had chunks of glass missing and it appeared cracked. As I got closer, I noticed the entire back window was shattered. Pieces of glass were on the ground, meaning this occurred here, at the store. I would have noticed this earlier when leaving work because I approach my vehicle from the rear and the window was fine. Even looking through the rear window while driving it was clear. I went back into the store I was at and asked the store management to review the cameras to see if a person did this. I contacted the police. Management of the store stated no one approached my vehicle. They did see “a weird occurrence of the glass just shatter, no one was near the vehicle”. The police showed up, reviewed video and said there was nothing they could do because no crime was committed. I contacted my insurance to have it repaired. I had to drive the vehicle home and then to Safelite to have it repaired, all while my rear view vision was obstructed by having shattered glass. The way the glass shattered, pieces could have struck a person walking by. If I were in the vehicle or had people in the backseat, they would have been struck with glass. Glass was scattered all throughout the back of the vehicle. I believe the tint I had on the window kept it from completely falling into the trunk. If this would have happened while being driven, it could have caused an accident. Safelite replaced the window, but was unable to remove the glass that had fallen into the tailgate. I now hear glass moving around when I drive and also when I lift and lower my tailgate. This is going to depreciate the vehicle value and also prevent me from selling the vehicle. I have also noticed while doing research, many other owners of RDX are having the same issue, yet no Recall. Acura has not considered this to be a problem.

I now hear glass moving around when I drive and also when I lift and lower my tailgate. This is going to depreciate the vehicle value and also prevent me from selling the vehicle. I have also noticed while doing research, many other owners of RDX are having the same issue, yet no Recall. Acura has not considered this to be a problem.

Additional Notes:

When I was approaching my vehicle from the rear, I noticed my back window had chunks of glass missing and it appeared cracked. As I got closer, I noticed the entire back window was shattered. Pieces of glass were on the ground, meaning this occurred here, at the store. I would have noticed this earlier when leaving work because I approach my vehicle from the rear and the window was fine. Even looking through the rear window while driving it was clear. I went back into the store I was at and asked the store management to review the cameras to see if a person did this. I contacted the police. Management of the store stated no one approached my vehicle. They did see “a weird occurrence of the glass just shatter, no one was near the vehicle”. The police showed up, reviewed video and said there was nothing they could do because no crime was committed. I contacted my insurance to have it repaired. I had to drive the vehicle home and then to Safelite to have it repaired, all while my rear view vision was obstructed by having shattered glass. The way the glass shattered, pieces could have struck a person walking by. If I were in the vehicle or had people in the backseat, they would have been struck with glass.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

Potential Consequences:

On 02/25/2023 our car abruptly stalled on us while driving without any warning in a remote area out of state over 3 hours away from our residence at night with temperatures below freezing with a minor in the car. We were lucky it happened on a back road and not on highway with hi velocity just an hour earlier because this would have killed us. The car came to a complete stall in the middle of the road, the red battery sign came on and the car would not start. We had a very poor cell phone reception, it took us over 3 hours to get a tow track, by the time the truck arrived we were shivering from cold. The car is impossible to put in neutral while in full stall that makes removing car from the road and towing near impossible. The car got towed to the nearest Acura repair center in PA. We were left with no car with a minor in the middle of the night in the cold out of state with very limited financial resources. As of now the car is still at the repair shop in PA, we are back in Maryland without any vehicle. The repair shop told us that there is no fuel pressure and it is likely fuel pump failure, that has already been reported and recalled on other Acura RDX 2019, but for some reason is not associated with our VIN. This is a major safety concern with a faulty part on a 4 years old car that could have potentially killed us and now is putting unimaginable financial, logistical and emotional hardship on us being left without a vehicle out of state and absolutely no timeline on when this very costly repair will be done due to unavailability of the part. Please issue a recall on this VIN ASAP before somebody will get hurt. It seems to be problem with many Acura RDX 2019 cars and is calling for much larger recalls then previously issued NHTSA recalls: 21V-215 FAM 2019-20 RDX Fuel Pump Motor Safety Recall Expansion and 20V-314 S7D2019 /RDX Fuel Pump Motor Safety Recall. This same exact fuel pump failure is reported all over the internet in forums and RDX 2019 reviews.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM

Potential Consequences:

Once again, 3 weeks after the first time it happened, my 2019 ACURA RDX lost ALL power and I had to drift to the side of the road. This occurred on the Baldwin Beach Express and luckily there is not a lot of traffic this time of year so I could get on the shoulder. Car would not restart, all lights around the speedometer had come on. I had to have it towed to the Acura dealership in Mobile where it was towed the first time when this happened. At that time the told me they could not duplicate the problem. Three weeks later it has happened again . The tow truck driver tried to start the car and said " you're not getting any fuel" and asked if the fuel pump had been checked. Supposedly it has been replaced when it was first recalled. Could it be another faulty fuel pump? My question....how dangerous would this be if this happened in the I-10 Mobile tunnel?????? The first time it happened I tried to call Acura but the complaint department is not open on Sundays. This time it happened on a Friday and I was able to file my complaint. Will I get a response to this event now that it has happened a second time?

Car would not restart, all lights around the speedometer had come on. I had to have it towed to the Acura dealership in Mobile where it was towed the first time when this happened. At that time the told me they could not duplicate the problem. Three weeks later it has happened again . The tow truck driver tried to start the car and said " you're not getting any fuel" and asked if the fuel pump had been checked. Supposedly it has been replaced when it was first recalled. Could it be another faulty fuel pump? My question....how dangerous would this be if this happened in the I-10 Mobile tunnel?????? The first time it happened I tried to call Acura but the complaint department is not open on Sundays. This time it happened on a Friday and I was able to file my complaint. Will I get a response to this event now that it has happened a second time?

Additional Notes:

Defect Description:

UNKNOWN OR OTHER

Potential Consequences:

I was driving on the interstate at 75 miles per hour. The back window literally exploded. There was a very loud boom. Upon pulling over, I discovered that the window had shattered. Part of the glass fell down inside the car. We were not going under an overpass and did not hit anything that would have caused the glass to suddenly shatter. Acura has issued a Technical Service Bulletin (TSB) but not a recall. Since the car was out of warranty, the repair is not covered. The internet is full of posts about unexplained glass shattering on 2019 Acura's. This is a safety issue.

Defect Description:

VISIBILITY/WIPER

Potential Consequences:

On January 16, 2023, at approximately 5:00 PM, I returned to my vehicle, a 2019 Acura RDX in a secured parking lot after work, got into the driver’s seat, closed the door, turned on the vehicle, and my rear windshield spontaneously shattered without any signs whatsoever of external impact. The entire rear windshield shattered from end to end without explanation. Upon further researching this issue, it appears to be a common problem with several model years of the Acura RDX. I reported this incident to Acura, corporate customer relations, who declined to offer any assistance for the problem, despite there being a technical service bulletin issued for this problem for all 2019 Acura RDX VINs. I was fortunate that this did not occur while my vehicle was in motion, however, the problem poses a serious safety issue that Acura refuses to do anything about. I’m not sure why they would issue a TSB yet decline to authorize a repair or replacement of the windshield. This is a common problem that is known to Acura and poses a safety issue to the motoring public.
