NHTSA Complaint #10339174 — 2005 ACURA MDX

DRIVING ON CITY STREET 1 BLOCK FROM ENTERING FREEWAY I FELT A STRANGE GRABBING AND VIBRATION TYPE SENSATION FROM MY 2005 MDX. A FEW FEET FURTHER THE CAR FELT LIKE I HAD STEPPED ON BRAKES AND GAS AT THE SAME TIME AND LITERALLY STOPPED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STREET. THE CAR BEHIND SWERVED AND BARELY MISSED ME. I MANAGED TO GET THE VEHICLE TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND CALLED ACURA ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE. HAD I BEEN ON THE FREEWAY THIS WOULD HAVE CAUSED A MULTIPLE CAR COLLISION THE ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE WAS WONDERFUL BUT I FEEL THAT SINCE I ONLY HAVE 70,000 MILES ON THIS CAR; THIS SHOULD NOT HAVE HAPPENED AND THE LOCKING OF THE WHEELS AT ANY SPEED IS UNACCEPTABLE. THE REPAIR WAS A REPLACEMENT OF THE MODULATOR ASSEMBLY ABS/VSA AT A COST OF $$1653. I JUST KEEP WONDERING WHAT WOULD HAVE HAPPENED HAD I BEEN ON THE FREEWAY DRIVING 70 MILES PER HOUR. *TR
