NHTSA Complaint #10994232 — 2016 ACURA MDX

THIS ISSUE INVOLVES THE FWS(FORWARD WARNING SYSTEM) ON THIS VEHICLE THE FWS OPERATES INTERMITTENTLY AND ERRACTICALLY. WHEN DRIVING HOME IN THE RAIN TODAY IT FLASHED ON AND OFF WITHOUT ANOTHER VEHICLE NEARBY. IN MANY CASES IT HAS FAILED TO WARN WHEN I AM APPROACHING ANOTHER VEHICLE AT CONSIDERATE SPEED. IN MOST CASES IT HAS FAILED TO WARN. THIS INTERMITTENT AND APPARENT OPERATION HAS SERVED AS A DISTRACTION AND HAS BECOME A SAFETY ISSUE, THE SALESMAN AND SERVICE MANAGER HAVE INTIMATED THAT THIS CAN BE CONSIDERED "NORMAL" FOR THIS SYSTEM. FOR ME THIS PROBLEM RESULTED IN A NEAR COLLISION AND AM CONCERNED FOR OTHER DRIVERS EXPERIENCING THE SAME PROBLEM THIS PROBLEM OCCURRED IN CITY AND HIGHWAY DRIVING (ROAD TRIP FROM WEST COAST TO CHICAGO AND BACK) ONLY OCCURS WHEN IN MOTION WHETHER TURNING OR NOT.
