2025 Acura MDX SUV Consumer Reviews
Pricing
Music Options-Truly stink
Just bought a 2025 Acura MDX. Got into the vehicle to leave the dealership and learned that Acura no longer supports Sirius XM. You have to use your phone data and upload Apple CarPlay. Driving is great fun in this vehicle, its my fifth Acura but now its like doing an instrument check on an airplane before you can start the engine. Because I don't want to connect my phone to the car to listen to music my options are a 350.00 add on that supports Sirius, OR I can listen to FM radio. Great, a computer on wheels that costs 65K and I am listening to FM freaking radio. NOT A SMART UPGRADE ACURA.

New MDX is a downgrade
I recently traded in my 2022 MDX for the 2025 and can’t stand it! Somehow I didn’t realize Acura got rid of XM Sirius in 2025. Had I noticed it would have been a complete dealbreaker. You can get to the Sirius app through CarPlay, but it’s very clunky. Multiple screens to tap through to play music and no way to switch from one channel to another. Another issue with using apps is they work only if your service provider is good. Opening any apps has been painfully slow, pauses, or crashes for me. Furthermore it drains the battery of the phone. The connectivity of the phone and relay of text messages is also terrible. If you’re listening to music and a call comes in, it doesn’t come up on the screen to answer. I would imagine there is a way to remedy this problem, but I have yet to find it. All around it feels like they rushed this update and completely forgot the user experience. I’m counting the months until this lease is up and I’ve only had the car 3 weeks. Don’t recommend it at all!

We have enjoyed the MDX over the years. There are excellent options at the right price.
