Fran's 2 cents
I am a little disappointed in this car. Love the look of it but could use some improvements. Very disappointed in the gas mileage. Was advertised to get 28MPG. I have yet to surpass 22MPG. That is at the speed limit. Stereo needs a more SURROUND sound. The sound sounds like it is all coming from the front speakers. The interior lighting is a little inadequate. I am not a fan of the start/stop of the engine at lights etc. I understand that it is a fuel saving feature but takes a little getting used to. Not happy that the Tech pkg requires additional fees to use all of the features.

Lemmon
3000 mile and sunroof leaks. Been waiting a month for a replacement. I’m just going to tun it in under the Lemon Law. Apparently they have major problems with the sunroof weather stripping.

Better than MDX in driving experience!
Bought RDX over MDX and RX 350 F Sport a couple months ago. The comfort mode really changes to have the same manners as the Lexus. Only reason for 4 stars overall is because the gas mileage. However that is a great trade off for the driving experience. Drove the advance MDX but was not too thrilled. Of course it had more room. The RDX was more engaging driving wise and this trim has changed for the better in 2022. That was main reason why I ended up purchasing. Otherwise was going to wait another year or two. Have no issues with infotainment. Also the hater’s on having to wait to lock the car when closing rear hatch needs to know that all you have to do is touch rear door to lock the whole car even before fully closing. Also there is another button by handle that locks it once fully closed. Hope this helps. GREAT CAR! CORNERS BETTER THAN MOST SEDANS!

Great good looking car
I bought a tach package back in Feb. I gifted to myself for my birthday, is absolutely nice to look at and the interior is very stylish and modern. The problem it has is that, when the car is driving over irregular surfaces, its frame normally twist and, at that point it sound like the sheet metal is being bent, I took it to the dealer and I was told some clamps had to be tighten and it was done, the situation dissappear for awhile but it starting to coming back , second appointment for that issue has been scheduled. The second issue is that now, 17 month later started developing some rattling in the A colums, center console and dashboard. I don't think a car of that level should ever rattle, anywhere. I'm kind of disappointed. Other than that I love my RDX.
Update after 40,000 plus miles: Still don't buy!
I've now had this car just over 2 years. It now has 40,000 on it. Except for the continuing problems with Apple CarPlay the vehicle is a joy to drive. I've had nothing but routine maintenance performed on it except for one faulty wheel bearing that was covered by warranty. Apple CarPlay now works about 25% of the time even though the dealer replaced the computer once, acknowledging, however, that it probably wouldn't help - it didn't. Apple CarPlay in my 2021 RDX with about a thousand miles works less than half the time. This is not the same problem the 2020 RDX had that could be fixed with a periodic Factory Rest. Acura recognizes it has a problem and does not have a solution. Moreover, it does not have a timeline on when, or if, it will generate a fix. So, unless Acura demonstrates that the problem is solved and Apple CarPlay is important to you, don’t buy a 2021 RDX. I didn’t learn I had a problem until my second day of ownership. And did not learn it could not be fixed until several days later. I am screwed I fear. I now have over 20,000 miles on my 2021 RDX and have had the computer that operates Apple CarPlay replaced once. The replacement has not improved the performance of Apple CarPlay. It still works only about half the time. Acura acknowledges it is a software problem they are unable, or unwilling, to fix.
