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

Sweet Ride!
We bought this SUV for my wife who travels at least 4 days a week out of town. Her former Honda Accord Touring was nice, but left her tired and sore from the ride. The MDX is totally different. She arrives safely and comfy. We love this ride. The seats are very comfortable and made well. It handles corners like on a rail. It somehow detects turns and encourages outside wheels to travel faster the the others.

Steering Handling Extremely Poor
Just bought my 2017 Acura MDX. The steering wheel has a huge amount of play. Told service department about the problem, they told me that was normal in this model. When i test drove a similar model the steering was much tighter. Didn't test drive this vehicle b/4 purchase. I would expect something like this in a very low-end vehicle. This disfunction is going to hurt Acura and future sales.
