NHTSA Complaint #11057254 — 2014 ACURA MDX

VEHICLE WOULD NOT START INITIALLY AND DISPLAYED SEVERAL ERROR CODES ONCE IT FINALLY STARTED. ONCE I BEGAN DRIVING IT DID NOT HAVE NORMAL STEERING CONTROL AND SEEMED AS THE TRANSMISSION HAD PROBLEMS. IT WOULDN'T ACCELERATE NORMALLY AND THE RPMS RAN HIGHER THAN USUAL. THERE WAS NO DIFFERENCE WHEN I SWITCHED BETWEEN NORMAL AND SPORT MODE LIKE USUAL. THE N ORLANDO AUTO NATION ACURA STATED THE ISSUES WERE CAUSED BY A BAD BATTERY BUT IT WAS SERVICED A WEEK PRIOR AT AUTO NATION HONDA AND THE BATTERY TESTED GOOD (SEE ATTACHED IMAGE). THEY REPLACED THE BATTERY AND CLEARED THE ERROR CODES BUT IT SEEMS LIKE THE STEERING IS STILL LOOSE AND STILL HAS POOR ACCELERATION COMPARED TO BEFORE THE ISSUE WITH THE ERROR CODES. I AM VERY CONCERNED ABOUT THESE ISSUES FOR THE SAFETY OF MY FAMILY. IT HAS BEEN TWO DAYS SINCE THE BATTERY HAS BEEN REPLACED AND PLAN TO RETURN TO ADDRESS THESE ISSUES SOON AS POSSIBLE. PLEASE SEE ATTACHED PHOTOS.
