My wife and I purchased a 2022 Acura RDX with the Advance package.Took some getting use to the touch pad controller and still having problems. It is hard to navigate especially changing the radio stations while trying to drive. I recommend turning off the Auto Engine Idle stop each time you get into the vehicle when driving because I get tired of the engine shutting off everytime I came to a stop. Also recommend using cruise control less as possible or turning the low speed following distance to minimum on the Adaptive Cruise Control Low Speed Follow which comes on by default when ever you use the cruise control, hate it to can not be turned off. These two features are marketed as safety features but I believe they create a safety hazard as well. This is a great car but wish I could have gotten a bigger power train but there are no options.The wife loves.

Collision Mitigation Braking System (CMBS)

I HATE the Collision Mitigation Braking System (CMBS). I’ve had problems with it braking when it shouldn't. It’s stops so abruptly that I get whip-lash and my seatbelt caused bruises. The cheaper Honda’s get a simple button to press to turn it off, but the expensive Acura’s do not have a button to simply press. You have to go through 4 different settings. There’s no option to keep it permanently off & it comes back on every time you start the car. In addition to the CMBS, I do not like the idle stop. Again no way to keep it permanently off. At least it has a button I can press each and every time. And why no rain sensor? My 15 year old car has zero features but has a rain sensor.

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.

I love the sound system but trying to use the touchpad and navigating around setting up your favorites etc is impossible and time consuming. Just leased have it for 2 weeks and I am going to dump car because of the radio system.

I love my 2022 Acura RDX A Spec! My only negative is an intermittent noise it makes when backing up! People stare and will see why a seemingly new car makes such a noise! Acura says it’s a normal noise that they make! Nope had a 2019 RDX for 3 years. Never made this noise!!! So Acura, figure out what is causing this please! My car is still new with low mileage and it has made this noise since it was a month old!!

I recently purchased an Acura RDX Aspec Advance and it’s the best vehicle In owned. It’s gorgeous, quick, and just all around comfortable. Absolutely no regrets!

The charging station " DOES NOT " work for APPLE phones ! The lens on Apple phones raises the angle - so the "flat" charging station does not work ! Dead Battery !
