Consumer Description

THE CAR HAS PERIODICALLY SHOWN AN ALERT INDICATING AN IMMINENT ACTIVATION OF THE AUTOMATIC BRAKING SAFETY SYSTEM WHEN NOTHING HAS BEEN IN FRONT OF THE CAR. TODAY, IT DID IT THIS MORNING, AND THEN LATER IN THE MORNING, WHILE DRIVING 30 MPH, THE CAR CUT OFF, MAKING IT INOPERABLE AND IT STOPPED IN A TRAVEL LANE OF A BUSY ROAD. WE WERE ABLE TO RE-START IT LONG ENOUGH TO NAVIGATE OFF THE ROAD TO A SAFE LOCATION, AND IT PROMPTLY CUT OFF AGAIN. AFTER THAT, IT WOULDN'T RUN FOR MORE THAN 30 SECONDS. EVERY WARNING IMAGINABLE (POWER STEERING PROBLEM, LANE KEEP ASSIST PROBLEM, EMISSION SYSTEM PROBLEM, VEHICLE STABILITY ASSIST PROBLEM, HILL START ASSIST PROBLEM) WAS DISPLAYING ON THE INFORMATION PANEL IN SEQUENTIAL ORDER. WE HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO AN ACURA DEALERSHIP FOR INSPECTION/REPAIR. *TR
