The hazard warning switch on my 2011 Acura MDX Technology & Entertainment Package VIN [XXX] sticks. It is due to a manufacturing defect and not because of normal wear and tear. That is a safety concern because when it is pressed and sticks, such as when giving the right of way to an emergency vehicle, or in bad weather, it not possible to make it unstuck while driving, and requires a screwdriver to pry it back to unstuck position, and if that option is not available then the stuck hazard switch will drain the battery when the vehicle is shut down. Please refer to enclosed Acura ServiceNews Article B15070C. On 8/9/2025, for my service at Hendrick Acura, I requested this known safety issue be fixed. I demonstrated by pressing the hazard switch that got stuck and required a screwdriver to unstick it. But the dealer unreasonably wanted me to pay...

Moonroof / Sunroof glass spontaneously exploded as while driving on Interstate at approximately 65mph. This caused many small peices of glass to break inward some of which entered into the cabin and onto passengers including the driver. The glass exploding was very loud and caused me to jerk my steering wheel. It scared the passenger as well. Also small slivers of glass can be felt in the skin.

SUNROOF GLASS EXPLODED SPONTANEOUSLY WHILE DRIVING ON HIGHWAY ABOUT 80MPH WITH LITTLE TRAFFIC AND CLEAR SKIES. LUCKILY, THE SUNROOF INTERIOR SLIDE COVER WAS CLOSED PREVENTING THE GLASS SHARDS TO FALL INTO THE VEHICLE. TOOK CAR TO A LOCAL ACURA DEALER AND THEY DID NOT MENTION A RECALL AND NEEDED TIME TO ORDER A NEW PART AND SCHEDULE SERVICE. DECLINED THEIR SERVICE AND WENT TO AN AUTO GLASS SERVICE FOR PENDING REPAIRS. I BELIEVE THIS WAS NO FAULT OF MY OWN AND I WASN'T AWARE OF THIS SUNROOF ISSUE. IF THE GUARD WAS NOT CLOSED MYSELF AND PASSENGERS WOULD MOST LIKELY GET HURT.

I WAS TRAVELING ALONG AN INTERSTATE AND HEARD A DEAFENING SOUND. I LOST CONTROL OF MY VEHICLE, LEFT THE INTERSTATE AND WAS HEADING DOWN AN EMBANKMENT WHEN I FINALLY REGAINED CONTROL OF MY VEHICLE. I MADE IT BACK TO THE INTERSTATE AND PULLED OFF AT THE NEXT EXIT. I HEARD THE SOUND AS IF SOMETHING THAT WAS PERTAINING TO MY ROOF. WHEN I PULLED BACK THE INSIDE SUNROOF COVER GLASS STARTED COMING INTO MY CAR. I LOOKED AND MY SUNROOF HAD A LARGE HOLE IN IT AND FROM THE LOOK OF THE GLASS PUSHING OUTWARD IT EXPLODED. THERE WAS NOTHING AROUND ME AT THE TIME AND I WAS NOT UNDER AN OVERPASS OR UNDER ANY TREES WHICH ELIMINATED ANYTHING FALLING ON THE SUNROOF. THE QUESTION STILL REMAINED WHY DID THE GLASS APPEAR AS EXPLODE INSTEAD OF AN IMPLODE? I WENT TO A BODY SHOP AND THEY SAID THEY HAD HEARD...
