Consumer Description
ACURA RDX HAS REMOVED THE MINI SPARE AND PROVIDED A SMALL AIR COMPRESSOR. THIS IS FINE IF YOU ARE LOW ON AIR. BUT IF YOU HAVE A BLOW OUT, SHRED THE TIRE, OR BREAK A RIM YOU ARE STRANDED INDEFINITELY. I BELIEVE THAT THIS CAUSES UNNECESSARY RISK TO DRIVERS AND A MINI SPARE SHOULD BE PROVIDED AS A MINIMUM. ALSO THE SPARE STORAGE SHOULD ACCOMMODATE THE FULL SIZE TIRE AND RIM FOR THOSE OF US THAT BELIEVE A MINI SPARE ALONE IS A DANGER TO TO THE DRIVER SAFETY BECAUSE DEGRADED BRAKING AND HANDLING DURING USE.
