The car is giving external right head light issue. The light turns off suddenly at night which we need to turn on again after 2 minutes. This happens frequently and we have to turn on the lights very often. The dealer examined the issue and he expressed regret in repairing the vehicle and estimated price of $2.500.The Service Manager though stated that the issue is same as it pertains to the rear lighting issue for Acura 2014 to 2020 Models. We paid $100 just to examine the lighting issue to the dealer. We are senior citizens at advanced stage and it is becoming increasingly difficult to take out the cars at evenings for fear of proper and reliable lighting in the car.

The 2013 Acura MDX has a problem with the pistons in the engine which causes excessive oil consumption.

I changed the oil in my car with synthetic 4k miles ago. About 1k miles ago I started getting an error that said low oil level. I went back into the lube shop to see what was going on, they said there was no leakage or issues there but there was hardly any oil in my car and that it was probably burning oil. I searched for issues with my 2013 MDX burning oil and an issue in 2019 with clogged oil control rings came up but said that the warranty extension would only be good to 2021. I found out this will be $5k to fix. I was never alerted of this issue and would like to submit a complaint about not being notified that this was even an issue in my car. I would like Acura to fix my vehicle since I never received the alert that this was a known issue in my car.

During driving, Collision Mitigation Braking System (CMBS) will activate and "BRAKE" light will blink, indicating that you should apply brakes. This happened multiple times. Finally the CMBS warning light came on permanently. I took my car to Acura Dealership for repairs. They informed me that it was a software issue and update of the software should resolve this problem.

I have a 2013 Acura MDX with an estimated 87k miles. Over the past 3 months, the engine will cut off while I'm driving and the steering wheel and brakes lock up. This has happened about 5 times in a three-month period. There are no warning lamps on my dashboard and no codes appeared during the diagnostic tests. My mechanic is unable to reproduce the issue. I have two young sons and am terrified of driving them in the MDX. The engine failure happens very randomly as it's cut off while driving at varying speeds.

I called acura and they said they are aware of the issue but can not do anything since our vin IS not part of the recall. This can be a big safety issue since people have experienced cars stopped mid road due to no power. Please help since acura IS ignoring safety of their consumers!

I received notification of excessive oil consumption affecting my vehicle from acura (2013 MDX) I took the car as instructed to bridgewater acura and they performed an oil consumption test. According to the manufacturer the car had to consume at least 1 quart of oil per 1,000 miles. The dealer stated that my car showed that my car consumed 1 quart at the first 1,000 miles, and 1/2 quart each time at the following 3 -1,000 mile mark. So acura would not pay for the repair necessary to correct the problem. After this I had an new oil change done and after traveling 4,260 miles and before I was due for another oil change the low level indicator came on. Sure enough the service department of dch honda in old bridge, nj verified that my car was out of oil. The dipstick was not registering any oil on it. I had at that time an oil change done to save my engine even if according to manufacturer's recommendation and car computer I was not due for one for another 3,000 miles. My car IS obviously burning more oil than expected at 77,000 miles on the engine. I am not an aggressive driver and don't idle the car. I suspect the test was not documented correctly since I am consuming close to 5 quarts of oil per 4,260 traveled miles. I would like to have a new test done and properly witnessed by me this time.

Backup camera has extremely poor performance in low light or night time settings if there IS no other ambient light like street lights. Reverse lights are not sufficient to be able to see obstacles or dangers in the backup monitor. Body panels produce a blind spot requiring the backup camera to see behind you. The backup camera has shifted angle slightly causing the markings intended to allow backup into parking spaces to be off center and guide the vehicle to an inappropriate parking angle. This low light performance issue has been known to owners for some time, in light of acura's new recall related to backup cameras this warrants investigation as well.

As I pulled the car into the parking lot slowly and was about to put it in park I realised the car suddenly accelerated and jerked up on the curb/walkway. As there was no place for me to manouver I tried to turn it to the left and hit a wall to stop the car. During this whole process the engine never stopped.

I believe this car has several issues and should not have been sold to me. the car had just come in (as I was told)an d it had not gone through the process requirerd for used cars before being sold. I initially went there to trade my KIA and buy a used car.

Purchased this a at a used car from acura of los gatos an picked the car up late on jan 27TH 2016. At noon on feb 5TH (just about 7 days) the car suddenly stop when trying to pull up to the drive way of my friend house. The entire car IS in the middle of a small street, blocking cars from moving. Car can't get started even with jumper from a towing company. The car was towed back to los gatos acura and few hours later we were told the the entire engine IS gone. We purchase this used car because it's such a new car just about 2 years old and driven just above 25,000 miles and supposed to run through almost 200 points check from los gatos acura, but it failed in our face and we are fear for our lives due to the reason that we are lucky enough that the car broke down in a middle of the road in a light traffic area. If the engine did break down in the middle of fast and high traffic freeway, our lives could be in serious danger.
