Smooth Sporty Everyday Driver

John in Omaha, NE, 06/29/2024
2024 Acura MDX Type S 4dr SUV AWD w/Advance Package (3.0L 6cyl Turbo 10A)

Have now owned 2024 MDX Type S Advanced for 3 months. Love the drive train. The engine leaves the line in traffic smooth and effortless but when needed the turbo changes the personality with a growl and snap. Getting used to the infotainment system and like it better than the one in my 2021 Lexus RTX. Interior is comfortable and roomy with mid level luxury. The seat coolers are marginal at best and the A/C could use more coolant. Overall, very pleased with purchase and would recommend.

ACURA HAS LOST THIER TOUCH

2023 mdx type s Loud engine, and not a good loud. Sounds like the engine has no oil in it and everything's just rubbing together, this is at idle If your driver door isn't fully closed the mdx will let you put it in drive, drive for half a second then slam you into park. Why let you put it in drive!?!?! The windshield wipers are so low on the shield that they don't stay warm, so driving in snow and ice becomes hazardous as the wipers constantly freeze up if not in use. Body lines are garbage. The gaps between my doors and quarters are uneven and so large a stick of ice managed to form in-between. The gap doesn't even look like it could be fixed, the joining panels are slightly different shapes. First new car and boy is it disappointing. Acura has turned into a North American car producer. Caring more about massage seats and high-tech nonsense then quality of cars

High pitch whining noise that Acura calls NORMAL

Owned 2 4th Gen MDX’s and each one have a different set of issues. First one is 2022 MDX Aspec which had issues with acceleration and weird vibration in the gas pedal. Acura did not cared to look into the issue and simply ruled out saying it’s normal. Since I could drive the car with the vibration in the gas pedal, traded in Aspec for 2023 MDX Type S Advance hoping that the Type S engine design is different and I’ll not have any weird issues. But, I was completely wrong. My 2023 Type S Advance have multiple issues - 1) high pitch whining noise which triggers at 45mph. This happens only when i slightly press the gas pedal to maintain the speed. Take the foot off the gas pedal and the noise stops. Again, feather the gas pedal, it comes back. My dealer did not even attempt to identify the problem but instead he test drove other type s in the lot which was having similar noise but barely noticeable while it’s pretty loud and annoying in my car. Opened a case with Acura and they took my dealership technicians word and ruled it as a normal characteristic of the car… which is BS! Many other MDX owners are experiencing same issue and Acura is not bothering to look into the issue at all. 2) Rattle noise from the cluster/HUD part of dashboard. My dealer tried to fix it but it just doesn’t go away. Type S Advance is the most expensive and sort of flagship vehicle for Acura. But, Acura decided to screw it up and do nothing about the issues that customers are having and simply saying it’s normal. Seems like Acura knows these issues and yet released a faulty product into the market and bagging the money. If Acura doesn’t take these issues into consideration and fix them, this will be my last Acura product and spread the word to my family and friends who are in the market for a new car and make sure they buy a better reliable car other than Acura who pays attention to customer issues and value them.

Crappy SUV

We bought the 2023 MDX brand new because we liked the upgraded body style. If we had known the MDX was a piece of crap, we would’ve left it on the lot. The first day of purchase, the seat panel came off. Then a few days later, the seat clips came off. Then we noticed part of the dash leather was beginning to bubble. We also noticed the back hatch was not centered. As the days went on, we began to notice how jerky the drive- train was. We thought it was only when it was on regular cruise, but it jerks constantly. We let Hall Acura know about these problems, especially about the jerkiness. They came up with many excuses and never fixed the problem. They did not like our responses and asked us to go to another dealership…. so much for customer service.

I love Acura’s and will mostly likely only continue to buy them. I traded in my 2019 RDX aspec for the 2023 MDX Aspec bc i needed more space as my 3 kids are growing. It’s the perfect size without being too big. The overall new design is a head turner.
