NHTSA Complaint #10400534 — 2007 ACURA MDX

WHILE WAS DRIVING THE CAR, IT SHUT DOWN COMPLETELY - .NO LIGHTS, NO MOTOR, ..COMPLETELY DEAD IN THE MIDDLE OF THE FREEWAY. I WAS SIMPLY DRIVING AND HAD NOT TOUCHED ANY BUTTONS OR DIALS. I WAS (LUCKILY) ABLE TO DRIFT TO THE BREAKDOWN LANE. APPROXIMATELY 45 MINUTES LATER, THE INSIDE LIGHTS TURNED ON AND I WAS ABLE TO CONTINUE DRIVING. THIS MORNING, WHEN I TOOK THE CAR INTO THE DEALER FOR SERVICE, I WAS TOLD THAT ANOTHER CUSTOMER HAD THE SAME PROBLEM, RECURRING EVERY THREE WEEKS OR SO. AT OTHER TIMES, WHEN THE CAR WAS STATIONARY, THE CAR WOULD ALSO FREEZE ON ME, AND AGAIN, AFTER WAITING APPROX. 45 MINUTES, IT STARTED UP. THIS WAS, FOR ME, THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED WHILE I WAS DRIVING. MILEAGE ENTERED ABOVE IS APPROXIMATE.
