Beware
The 2014 Acura MDX is my third MDX and my last! The build quality and fit and finish was so bad that even after two dealer service visits, many items are still unacceptable. Based on the build quality alone, Acura is no longer a premium car manufacturer. The design and engineering of the technology package is not user friendly and certainly not intuitive. Losing the weather information is a major backward step. The noise from the injectors, the noise from the steering wheel, the noise from the lift cylinder are unacceptable. The dealer says these are "just the way it is on this vehicle." I have 3000 miles on this vehicle and I am looking to trade. I am really disappointed in Acura. UPDATE...I traded this pos in with 4000 miles on it. It remains the worst vehicle I ever owned.

Excellent SUV
I have owned my 2014 Acura MDX for over 4 months and have not experienced any of the issues (i.e. Cylinder Management System (VCM noise) mentioned in previous reviews. I truly enjoy driving this vehicle. It's a comfortable, quite riding and maneuverable vehicle. I believe the price matches the quality of this vehicle. Hopefully the quality and reliability will match my expectations in the future, but for now I'm fully satisfied with this MDX. I've owned my 2014 Acura MDX for 2 years and am still impressed with the reliability and riding comfort of this vehicle. I've kept current on all maintenance intervals and the vehicle still feels like it did when I drove it off the dealer's lot. I've owned my 2014 Acura MDX for over 4 years and continue to enjoy the overall reliability and smooth riding comfort this vehicle offers. I continue to keep updated on all maintenance intervals as specified in the warranty info. I give Acura high marks for their vehicles and will continue be a fan of this model.

Thoughtful Engineering
Got my MDX about six weeks and 2,700 miles ago. Love almost everything about it. Great build quality. You can see the engineers, designers and marketers all worked together to really think through even the smallest details. The knobs and buttons all "feel" solid. Super quiet. Smooth ride. Just a great car. My wife loves it. (btw, she is 5'2" and has no problems with the size of this car.) Mileage is around 22 mixed. Not what trip computer says. Love design and layout. Great stereo sound. Super space and storage, even in back. Rear camera is set too far out, so in rain, lens gets water and is unusable. First Honda product, but very pleased so far. No mechanical issues at all.
2014 MDX Defect Noticed
Hello Everyone, Tiffany Here in Canada. I purchased a new 2014 MDX two weeks ago. There is a noticeable defect with the rubbber weather strip around the windows of the rear passenger doors. There is a point on the 3 o'clock position of the window seal that bends roughly 30 degrees. At that point, the seal is popping out. Looks ugly and water can get inside. I examined all three 2014 MDXs on the dealership lot, they all had this same issue. Dealership doesn't know how to fix it, and Honda Canada is asking the design engineer in U.S. THe 2013 & 2012 MDX have the same 30 degree angle, but no such problem. I'm asking all affected owners to ask HONDA to fix this.
3 for 3
This is my third MDX and it has performed well! Trading for a 2019 this summer. Great ride and quiet.
