2025 Acura RDX SUV Consumer Reviews

Nothing but problems
Have had the car since March 18th, about to be taken back to dealership for 5th time, but hey, I have 493 miles on it. Driver's seat makes a ticking noise during slow speed turns, dealership cannot get the issue fixed. The moonroof wind visor rattles, the dealer could not duplicate the problem though it started on the way home after I took it in for the rattle. The surround view camera stopped working, took it in the first time for this-dealer (shockingly) could not replicate that same day upon returning home the surround view camera stopped working when I was pulling vehicle into garage. Now besides the ticking noise from drivers seat, surround view camera not working and oh I forgot the driver's side rear seat rattling (which appears to now be fixed-for now), the android auto randomly produces an error message on the main screen on the dash. Other than that, I can't tell you how much I like the car as I have not reallly been able to drive it for an extended time. I am being told that a new camera has been order for my car, so I guess I get to take it back to the dealership again when that comes in and when they can squeeze me in (as Acura and Honda service dealers are overwhelmed with recalls). I do like the Urban Gray Pearl for a positive. Oh and it gets no where near the EPA mileage estimates, however that could be that the car just goes back and forth to the shop. Acura/Honda corporate to date has done nothing, but they have left 2 voicemails, one to let me know about my open ticket and the other directing me to call a rep back, which I did, left her a message and have not received a return call.

Touch pad everything is nearly impossible to use. Owner's Manual is absolutely worthless, who wrote that pile of junk? $50K car comes with navigation but no nav. manual. I'll get mine in 3 to 5 weeks. Thanks Acura. The more I learn about it, the more I hate it, and I worked at AHM for 24 years. Should have bought Chevy. Update, seven weeks into it and still no Nav. owner's manual. I contacted Acura again to order the manual, I was told, in writing, that they are experiencing an unusually high amount of traffic and that I may be contacted soon, but to not contact them again because it will just make them more busy.

Disappointed with the interior features
Why have auto makers eliminated the traditional gear shifter? After driving for over 35 years, it's frustrating to have to retrain what had become intuitive. Push a button in to park, depress a button (down) to reverse, push another button in to drive. Definitely takes away from the driving experience. Remote start on the tech package trim level is only available through the app, which regularly stalled, could not "communicate" with the vehicle, and had to be uninstalled and reinstalled. It's faster to walk to the vehicle and start it manually. The touchpad feature to toggle between items on the display screen (no touchscreen feature) is either jumpy or laggy. I've taken to not using those features at all. The handling is a bit bumpier than expected, given that this is a luxury brand. It feels quite similar to the Honda CRV I had previously. I'm 2 weeks into a 4 year lease and am happy to ride along with someone else in their own vehicle since this vehicle has been a disappointment from the start.
