2005 ACURA MDX Steering Problems

When making a sharp turn on hot days the car makes a grinding noise like something is grabbing the tire. It slows the car, hands the steering wheel and then the VSA hazard light comes on. It is a recurring issue and mechanics have not been able to diagnose.

IN ADDITION, ON OTHER OCCASIONS IT WAS HARD FOR THE CONTACT TO MAKE TURNS. THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT IT WAS VERY SELDOM WHEN THE STEERING FUNCTIONED NORMALLY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO BARBER FORD (640 E 8TH ST, HOLLAND, MI 49423 (616) 396-2361) WHERE THE MECHANICS STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS FINE AND HAD NO FAILURES. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED.

TAKATA RECALL, MY AIR BAGS HAS BEEN MALFUNCTIONING TURNING OFF AND ON. I CHECK IF MY VEHICLE IS BEING RECALL BUT MY VEHICLE IS NOT IN THE DATABASE ? MY ACURA MDX 2005 NEEDS A RECALL

THE ISSUE AT HAND REGARDING THE VSA (VEHICLE STABILITY) FOR WHICH A RECALL HAD ALREADY BEEN ISSUED. MY VEHICLE WAS TAKEN IN AND RECEIVED THE RECALL. THIS HOWEVER DID NOT RESOLVE THE ISSUE WHICH IS A SERIOUS ISSUE MANY OTHERS I HAVE SPOKEN WITH FACE. THE "YAW RATE SENSOR" MALFUNCTIONS CAUSING SIMILAR BUT MORE DANGEROUS SITUATIONS THAN THE "WIRING HARNESS" ACURA CLAIMS TO HAVE RESOLVED THE VSA ISSUE. THERE IS A LOUD GRINDING NOISE, THE LEFT FRONT TIRE SEEMS TO BRAKE VERY HARD PULLING MY VEHICLE INTO ONCOMING TRAFFIC AND NEARLY FLIPPING THE VEHICLE THE ON 7/28/15 AT 65 MPH. THE SITUATION IS EXTREME AS OTHERS ARE EXPERIENCING. IT IS NOT A BRIEF AND NON DRASTIC PULL. IF BOTH HANDS ARE NOT ON THE WHEEL AT THE TIME OF MALFUNCTION THE VEHICLE MAY VERY WELL FLIP OVER. I TOOK MY VEHICLE INTO THE DEALERSHIP EXPLAINING THE ISSUE FIGURING THE ISSUE...

THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 186,000.

THE DRIVER SIDE FRONT BRAKE RANDOMLY APPLIES EVEN IF YOU DON'T TOUCH THE BRAKES. IT PULLS INTO ONCOMING TRAFFIC. THE VSA! LIGHT COMES ON EVERY TIME SIGNALING AN ISSUE WITH THE TRAFFIC CONTROL. THERE WAS RECALL THAT WAS SUPPOSED TO FIX THE ISSUE HOWEVER IT DID NOT. IT CAN OCCUR AT 70 MPH OR 5 MPH, THERE IS NO RHYME TO WHY IT OCCURS HOWEVER I FEAR FOR MY WIFE AND MY CHILDREN WHEN IT IS DRIVEN. *TR
