Defect Description:
ENGINE
Potential Consequences:
This is the second complaint I have filed with the NTSB. The transmission in my 2020 Acura RDX feels as if it is slipping. From a complete stop to trying to advance the call forward, the engine will act as if it cannot find first gear and then will "jump". This does not happen all the time but is frequent enough to garner my attention. This problem started immediately after I purchased the car. I have brought it to the attention of the Acura dealer multiple times but the refuse to deal with it because they say the NTSB has not issued any recalls for this particular problem.

POWER TRAIN
Potential Consequences:
My car's engine quit as I was about to make a right turn off a 6 lane road. It would not restart. By design, the transmission immediately goes into park (electrickly). There is no way for the driver to put it into neutral so it could be pushed or serviced by a flat bed tow truck. As a result my car blocked the turn lane requiring numerous cars to go around me putting my wife and I in danger of being hit. It also put the drivers of cars who were detouring around me in danger of collision with cars in the three thru lanes. The police placed one of their cars in the lane with lights on to mitigate the danger. They also tried to start my car un-succcessfully. The dealer repaired my car by replacing a defective "O" ring in the fuel pump pressure line. This was a recall item I had previously had done by the dealer

Potential Consequences:
BACK UP CAMERA DOES NOT WORK AS INTENDED IN THE DARK. ON CHANGING GEAR SELECTOR TO REVERSE, THE BACK UP IMAGE IS ALMOST COMPLETELY BLACK WITH A SLIGHT REFLECTION OF THE REVERSE LIGHTS ON THE BLACK TOP. ONCE A PROXIMITY SENSOR IS TRIGGERED (E.G. PEDESTRIAN WALKS UP CLOSE TO THE CAR), THEN THE CAMERA SWITCHES INTO DARK MODE, AND THE IMAGE IS APPROPRIATELY ILLUMINATED FOR ADEQUATE VISUALIZATION OF SURROUNDINGS. IN ATTACHED PICTURES IT IS NOTED THAT A PROXIMITY SENSOR HAS TO BE TRIGGERED BY A PERSON WALKING CLOSE TO THE CAR, BEFORE WHICH THEY ARE NOT VISIBLE. THE SIDE AND FRONT CAMERA ARE FINE AS SEEN IN THE SCOUT VIEW AS WELL ON THE SCREEN, THE REAR ONE IS THE ONLY THAT REQUIRES A SENSOR TO GO OFF TO TRIGGER THE DARK MODE. THE CAMERA WORKS FINE IN BRIGHT AREAS. FROM A GARAGE, FOR EXAMPLE, SURROUNDED BY CLOSE OBJECTS, WHICH INVARIABLY TRIGGER A PROXIMITY SENSOR, THE BACK UP CAMERA WORKS FINE. FROM A DRIVEWAY, FOR EXAMPLE, WHERE THE CAR IS SWITCHED ON WITHOUT ANY OBJECT TO TRIGGER A PROXIMITY SENSOR, THE BACK UP REAR CAMERA WILL NOT WORK UNTIL A PROXIMITY SENSOR IS TRIGGERED. SEEMS TO BE A RANDOM OCCURRENCE, AS SOME OWNERS OF SIMILAR TRIM LEVELS HAVE BEEN HAVING THE SAME ISSUE, WHILE OTHERS HAVE NO ISSUES, AND CAMERA WORKS AS IT SHOULD. THE DEALER REPORTS THAT THE CAMERA SYSTEM IS WORKING WITHIN SPEC. GIVEN THAT THE REAR WINDOWS ARE ALL TINTED, THIS POSES AN UNACCEPTABLE, AND EASILY AVOIDABLE HAZARD FOR BACKING UP ONTO A STREET WITH PEDESTRIAN TRAFFIC IN THE DARK. ATTACHED FILES: IMG_7298 BEFORE SOMEONE APPROACHES. SCREEN IS TOO DARK. IMG_7299 AS SOMEONE APPROACHES - YOU CAN SEE THE SENSOR STARTS GOING OFF, BUT SCREEN IS STILL DARK. IMG_7300 THE SENSOR CONTINUES TO GO OFF, BUT NOW THE CAMERA IS BETTER ILLUMINATED.
