HATE the Touchpad

I like my Acura but I absolutely hate the touchpad. I hate it so much that I am looking at trading my car in for a different car with a touchscreen. Also the auto trunk doesn't work great. Sometimes it will open when I sweep my foot under and sometimes it won't even though it is set up to do so. I love Acura this is my 3rd Acura but unless they change the touchpad for touchscreen it will be my last.

I've had this car about a month and 1000 miles. I have the Tech trim. It replaces my 2012 Acura MDX. So far I like it. It is comfortable and quiet. It took me a while to get used to the tech and the differences from the old car. The highest MPG I've seen is 28 MPG. I live in a rural area so I am not in heavy stop and go traffic. My opinion on the touchpad that everyone seems to hate. Honestly I am fine with it. I move it with my thumb, I don't have to take my eyes off the road. I test drove a different car with a touchscreen and I like this better. The things I don't like about the car: 1) I like having a key instead of the push,button start, 2) I miss having a cd player, I'm not a big phone person, I do not have music on my phone. I put some on a thumb drive, 3) The car shutting off and restarting at a stop light or stop sign is annoying and stupid. Yes I can turn that feature off but there is no way to permanently keep it off, everytime you restart the car you have to turn it off. 4) The small accessory screen has no way to lock the image that you want to see. All I want to see is the clock and it is gone everytime you restart the car. It does not default back to the last setting. 5) There is an update to the maps on the built in navigation. Time to load the updates is stating 6 hours.I am doing this in bits and pieces. I wish I could select the states or regions of the country to update. Naturally the updates started in the part of the country farthest away from me. Things I surprisingly liked: 1) the button shifters instead of a traditional shifter. I thought I would hate that but it is fine. 2) The big, obtrusive screen mounted on the dashboard, while not being very asthetic is fine, it is not in the way of your line of sight. 3) So far I have not missed the smaller cargo capacity as compared to my old MDX. I lile the car. I get a lot of favorable remarks from people when they see it.

Handles well, Great ride. Looks good, I was waiting for the new Murano, but I'm glad I selected the RDX instead. I'm getting around 27mpg Hwy 22 local. You need to learn all the tech features once you do, pretty good by comparison. Love Advance package plenty of upgrades worth it, HUD (heads up display) one of my favorites

Not really an upgrade from Mazda CX-5 Turbo

I lost my old 2021 CX-5 GT-Reserve during an accident, after I test drive Lexus NX350(where did all the space gone?), audi q5(80% people lease, and trim with vent seat too expensive to lease so dealer don't carry them), bmw x3(........uuuuuuugggggglllllllyyyyyy), Acura RDX was ok.... feel very same as my old car, with little bit better suspensive, so after a week driving it.... 1. infortament system is way worse than Mazda, touch pad bad, answer call button confusing(on AA screen, answer is at left, hang up is right, but on car, push wheel to left is hang up, push right is answer.....). On mazda, 2 buttons... easy simple and no confusing. 2. The Cargo cover was ....... not smart.... my Old CX-5 has the retractable cover and hook directly to the trunk door, so when you open truck, it automatically life the cargo cover..... come on.... on the RDX, I have to manually retract it every time otherwise I can't see what I have in it.... 3. Manual shift is joke, 10 gears.... 9 for forward.... you never find good gear manually.... Mazda have 6 speed, 5 forward.... old school and works great. 4. Brake hold and hand brake are on the left hand side, gear shift is on right hand side... Keep forgetting to turn it on. Mazda's buttons is all next to the shifter, you shift and push buttons right next to each other...... 5. Mazda have a constant ON ciger power in the center console, which is perfect for DashCam parking mode..... RDX only have 1, and it's off when car is off...... 6. Storage is joke, no place to put stuffs.... bottom one is 'wireless charger' which so hard to put phone there, don't even think about using it while you driving, u need go down so much to reach it and you may crash the car, upper center console storage is so small..... Mazda have very traditional style, not big but everything easy to grab and charge all at same place. 7, RDX have NO place for phone mount, even the air vent shape weird, Mazda have so many places you can mount phones, they even have one that hook on top of hazard warning button and you can mount phone on top of hazard button and still accessable to the button!!!! much much much easier. RDX have big glass roof, better suspension for ride...... everything else....... not that much better compare to CX-5. In conclusion, Mazda designed their cars with driver in mind, whatever they have, much be easy for driver to access and to use!!! Acura..... fancy design but so confusing to use, they design for show, not for driver to use. Even the horse power, 272 HP but slower than CX-5 240 something because transmission and low torque.

Super disappointed in the infotainment & more

I came out of a 2024 Pathfinder Platinum that Nissan bought back as a lemon because the infotainment system and AC compressor failed. I got into a 2025 RDX and am incredibly disappointed to be experiencing SO many infotainment issues in this vehicle as well. Not only is the touchpad stupid/useless/dangerous while driving, but the stereo occasionally cuts to silence with a loud beep then slowly fades back on. Sometimes you cannot connect a phone via Bluetooth no matter what you do until you power cycle the car. Many other random glitches as well. Now the problems have spread to the start button, which occasionally refuses to start or stop the engine. Plus a horrible (factory) brake squeak in reverse that started when the car had 8k miles on it. The car drives like a dream when its going forward with the radio off. That's about it. Can't wait to turn this lease back in.
