Consumer Description

THE BRAND NEW SUV (2017 ACURA MDX AWD TECH PACKAGE) HAS ABOUT 7000 MILES AND FOR THE LAST 300 MILES IT IS HAVING PROBLEMS WHICH ARE CRITICAL SAFETY ISSUES, WHEN THE GAS IS SLIGHTLY PRESSED TO INCREASE SPEED IN A MOVING VEHICLE. THIS ISSUE IS SEEN AT LEAST ONCE A DAY OR ONCE IN 2 DAYS. THE SUV HAS AUTO BRAKING FEATURE AND IT IS DEFINITELY NOT RELATED TO THAT. 1. THE CAR BRAKES BY ITSELF (SLIGHTLY SLOWING DOWN FOR 1 TO 3 SECONDS) 2. THE CAR SPEEDS UP UNEXPECTEDLY AND THEN BRAKES BY ITSELF. I TOOK IN THE CAR FEW TIMES TO THE ACURA DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID THEY DID NOT SEE ANY ISSUES IN THE COMPUTER. SO NOW I AM VERY CONCERNED AND WORRIED TO PUT MY FAMILY IN THE CAR.
