I would steer clear of this redesigned MDX. I looked at a few different Suv's before purchasing my "New "MDX". Was thrilled to have my first ACURA. What a rattle trap it has become. Noises from the front to back. Engine has strange noises. Interior trim coming loose. Made an appointment with the purchasing dealer only to have them tell me it needed tires.(21,000 miles) and alignment. Could not find the noises. Said if I came back and purchased a set of new tires $1300.00 they would look at it some more. Talked to Acura about this and they said it was a dealer issue and I would have to take care of it by working it out with the dealer. What happened to my warranty?? No more Acura's for me. Update : I have attempted to trade this vehicle but cannot reach any kind of fair trade, these MDX do not have good resale value due to the transmission! Problems and rattles.

After a few months an irritating wind noise developed in the driver's window, right next to my ear. Gets loud at >50mph. I took it in, dealer says it is a known problem for which Acura hasn't put a fix out for. They didn't want to try putting in rubber tape, etc and start messing with the window fit perhaps making things worse. Recommended I wait and see if Acura puts out a fix. Are you kidding me.. $55K for a loud noise in your ear. Not a sign of quality to compete with rivals. Stay away.

Brakes disks get damaged from heat, car vibrates when you brake, radiator leak after 30000 miles and Acura refused to fix under warranty saying it was damaged by a small stone hit from the road. I have news for you, Acura, Arizona is hot, cars radiator should be protected by design, and brake disks should not heat up and bend from normal driving.

Before i purchased the MDX, i test drove other SUV in or near this 7 seater class. From Explorers, Qx60 and Highlander etc. But it came down to two. The infiniti or the Accura. I went with the MDX. For the reason that it is more enjoyable to drive. Good suspension on minor bumps although the Adv Tech seems to be quiter that the other trims. It has A good Gas Mileage. I get 22 to 24 MPG Combined with more Bostonian/suburb driving than highway. The Interior does not feel cheap at all. Although the Center console looks outdated. It has pretty cool features like the flood lights and interior lighting are LED's. Safety is also good
Awful Customer Service - I will NEVER buy another!

This is an update of my review of the Acura MDX that I bought as a new car in 2014. I am firm in my belief that my ONE STAR rating over-states the value of my experience with ACURA. Simply stated the company does not care. The dealer from whom I bought this car lost its contract with Acura. Acura never contacted me to advise as to where I should take the vehicle for warranty work. The nearest Acura dealer is now a 2+ hour (one way) drive for me, and even thought a certified Honda dealer is 10 minutes away from me, ACURA refuses to authorize the Honda maintenance department to even change a bolt that was required due to a warranty recall. Acura sent me a recall notice informing me a part needed to be replaced. I went to the local Honda dealer to see if they could replace the defective bolt... they said they can do the work, but Acura will not cover and or authorize this work without prior authorization. Acura denied my request for authorization. This required me to undertake a 4-hour round trip to solve this recall. Oh... and it took Acura 4 weeks and multiple calls on my part to decide my request to deal with the Honda dealer would be denied. Never once did Acura return my call. I earlier described my experience with the blistering and pealing of the Pearl White paint. My first experience was covered under warranty, but this AGAIN forced me to make TWO 4-hour return trips to get the work done. Now the paint is again peeling in a different location that is not covered by warranty. And now the motor to raise or lower rear door no longer works. The repair for this item was quoted in the $3,000 range due to cost of parts and location to replace. But the Maintenance Department added that the part is on back order and will not be available for several months. Based upon their lack of caring, and lack of responsiveness, I WOULD NEVER PURCHASE ANOTHER ACURA !!! If you choose to purchase an ACURA, I wish you luck. May you have a much better experience than I have had. I am unwilling to give ACURA a second chance!
