NHTSA Complaint #11195860 — 2017 ACURA MDX

DANGEROUS LOSS OF POWER WHILE ACCELERATING ON THE HIGHWAY! THERE HAVE BEEN THREE SEPARATE INCIDENCES OVER THE LAST 2 YEARS. WHILE I WAS TRYING TO ACCELERATE ON THE HIGHWAY, THE CAR SEVERELY LOST POWER AND THE "CHECK ENGINE" LIGHT STARTED FLASHING. THE CAR SEEMED TO OPERATE NORMALLY AFTER TURNING OFF AND ON THE ENGINE. THE DEALERSHIP CLAIMED THAT THERE WAS NO COMPUTER RECORDS OF PROBLEMS AFTER EACH INCIDENCE. ACURA JUST ISSUED A RECALL OF THE FUEL PUMP ON THIS MODEL YEAR MDX. HOWEVER, ACURA AND THE LOCAL ACURA DEALERSHIP REFUSED THE REPAIR DUE TO THE LACK OF COMPUTER RECORD OF FAILURE.
