Need know that this SUV comes with a loud and hard thumping in rear when going over any non smooth road. Please do a real road test not test track.

This is not a luxury car. Tech doesn’t work

I owned a Toyota sequoia prior to buying Acura. The handling of the car is excellent, especially cornering. However, the technology is half-baked. Whenever I am going from higher ground to lower ground the collision avoidance system kicks in. The collision system even kicks in when I make a turn and there is another car making a turn from the opposite side. The memory seat systems and folding mirrors works sometimes and sometimes not. Very frustrating! The Aha audio and Pandora doesn’t work. Replying to text through the entertainment system doesn’t work either. It is as if the manufacturers never tested the car! I am definitely going back to Toyota or Lexus. Very disappointed. I called acura in car tech and they always blame Apple. what a shame!!!

Nice ride but cheap backup camera

This car has a surprisingly blurry backup camera. Taken back for adjustment/replacement and the tech said "diagnostics" says its working fine. I asked them to use their eyeballs and look at the image and tell me its ok. They neither agreed or disagreed except to say they will replace it as a courtesy and if the camera is the same, there is nothing they can do since its an Acura issued camera. Well, it was replaced and it looks just as bad. I am relying on good old fashion eyeballs to back this car into parking. Very disappointed and frankly surprised that Acura would install such a "behind the times" old technology blurry camera from another decade into this high end car. I have had other cars that cost less and their cameras are far more superior and way sharper then this one. Fix the problem or recall it Acura!!! Its dangerous to rely on your blurry camera to back up. Its a lawsuit waiting to happen. Also, for this caliber of car, the steering wheel feels like hollow plastic, maneuvering with it takes some adjustment. It feels smaller then the car's handling. And it feels plastic-ky to the touch even though its wrapped with leather or pleather.

Our transmission gave up in 3500 miles and when complained to dealer he states that they are only sales and I need to take this up with the manufacturer. Very dangerously unsafe vehicle. Filed with HTSA #11003847

Just traded my 2014 for the new Advance Hybrid. I was seriously looking at two other highly rated luxury SUV's but when the decision came I couldn't pass up another MDX. The Hybrid was a risk I felt I was taking being a new model but so far it is a seamless transition. You wouldn't know its a hybrid other than the fact that the tachometer periodically go's to zero. Very quiet and has nice pick-up when changing lanes and entering highways. Comfortable ride and I love the new exterior design. I was never a fan of the "bagel Cutter". The advance rear seat package is very luxurious and tops all other vehicles in this department. One item that Acura gets poor marks on is their information systems...I don't get the criticism. These systems are all complicated yet once you learn the ropes they work great and are no problem. My wife drives a new Mercedes and its complicated at first too! So far (15000) I haven't seen super gas milage. I'm getting 28 city/hiway. This is about 8 miles more than my previous MDX Advance. The Hybrid does improve pick-up and I can drive around my pretentious University community with a hybrid badge on the side of the car :-) .
