2001 ACURA MDX VIBRATIONS LEAD TO DEALER/ MANUFACTURER TO FOCUS ON OTHER COMPONENTS THEN THE TRUE ISSUE. WERE DIFFERENT FINDS STATED TO DIVERT ATTENTION OF KNOW PROBLEMS, TO MINIMIZE FINANCIAL AND REPUTATION? (LEMON LAWS OR POOR DESIGN RUN AROUND?) I'M NOT THE PRIMARY DRIVER AND THEN WHEN I DROVE IT (MY WIFE IS THE PRIMARY DRIVER), SAME PROBLEMS WERE FELT AND IT ONLY HAD DEALER SERVICE SINCE PURCHASING IT IN 2001. I INVESTIGATED THE NOISE MYSELF ON 7/15 /2007 AND NOTICED THE MOTOR MOUNTS WERE BROKE. HOW LONG WERE THEY LIKE THIS, WHO KNOWS, BUT A NOTICEABLE ENGINE VIBRATION IS GONE AFTER I POINTED THIS OUT TO THE DEALER/ MANUFACTURER AND HAD IT REPAIRED. I ASKED FOR REIMBURSEMENT FOR THE MOTOR MOUNTS FROM THE MANUFACTURER SINCE IT IS A DOCUMENTED PROBLEM. THE MANUFACTURE, ACURA/ HONDA, WOULD NOT REIMBURSE DUE TO THE AGE AND MILEAGE. I PAID FOR THE REPLACEMENT OF THE MOTOR MOUNTS. A VIBRATION WAS OCCURRING AROUND 30 - 40 MPH, DEALERS/ MANUFACTURER STATE IT WAS A EGR VALVE NOT ALLOWING TRANSMISSION TO SHIFT SMOOTHLY, AND IT WAS DUE TO RUNNING BELOW GRADE GAS. PREMIUM HAS AND WAS RAN, YET THE TRANSMISSION WAS 1.5 QUARTS LOW OF TRANSMISSION FLUID, WHERE IS IT GOING? IS IT HEATING UP AND PUSHING BACK THROUGH THE EGR VALVE IN GASEOUS STATE AND THEN COOLING, CLOGGING THE INTAKE, THENCE EFFECTING THE SHIFTING? THERE IS KNOWN ISSUES WITH THE TRANSMISSIONS AND THE DEALER/ MANUFACTURER SHOULD REPLACE IT AND STEP UP TO THE KNOW ISSUE. LASTLY, THE SWAY BAR HAS BEEN LOSE AND I'VE BEEN TOLD IT WAS THE A/C COMPRESSOR TO A STRUT. I GOT UNDER THE VEHICLE AND WAS ABLE TO IDENTIFY IT THE FIRST TIME. IS THE MANUFACTURER HIDING KNOW ISSUES ON THESE ITEMS STATED ABOVE? *JB

Official recalls
4Jan 17, 2020
Honda (American Honda Motor Co.) is recalling certain 1998 Acura 2.2CL, 1998-1999 Acura 2.3CL, 1998-1999 Acura 3.0CL, 2001 Acura 3.2CL and Acura MDX, 1998-2000 Honda Accord Coupe, Accord Sedan, Civic Sedan, Odyssey and Acura 3.5RL, 1999-2000 Acura 3.2TL, 1996-2000 Civic Coupe, 1997-2000 CR-V, 1997-1998 EV Plus, and 1998-1999 Isuzu Oasis vehicles. These vehicles were equipped with Non-Azide Driver air bag Inflators (NADI) and do not contain phase stabilized ammonium nitrate (PSAN) propellant. Due to a manufacturing issue, the NADI inflators may absorb moisture, causing the inflators to rupture or the air bag cushion to underinflate.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: In the event of a crash necessitating air bag deployment, an inflator rupture may result in metal fragments striking the driver or other occupants. An underinflated air bag cushion may not properly protect the occupant. These scenarios increase the risk of serious injury or death.
Remedy: Honda will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the driver frontal air bag inflator, and replace it if necessary, with an inflator of a different design, free of charge. The recall began October 1, 2020. Owners may contact American Honda's Customer Support & Campaign Center at 1-888-234-2138 or Isuzu customer service at 1-800-255-6727.

These vehicles may have received a replacement driver frontal air bag module as part of a vehicle repair. Due to a manufacturing issue, the replacement NADI inflator may absorb moisture, causing the inflator to rupture or the air bag cushion to underinflate.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: In the event of a crash necessitating air bag deployment, an inflator rupture may result in metal fragments striking the driver or other occupants. An underinflated air bag cushion may not properly protect the occupant. These scenarios increase the risk of serious injury or death.
Remedy: Honda will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the air bags in the vehicles, replacing the driver frontal air bag inflator with an inflator of a different design, as necessary, free of charge. The recall began October 1, 2020. Owners may contact American Honda's Customer Support & Campaign Center at 1-888-234-2138.

IN AREAS WHERE LARGE QUANTITIES OF ROAD SALT ARE USED, THE FRONT SUSPENSION COIL SPRINGS HAVE INSUFFICIENT CORROSION PROTECTION, AND MAY BE SUSCEPTIBLE TO CORROSION.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: EXCESSIVE CORROSION CAN CAUSE SPRING FAILURE AND A BROKEN SPRING COULD PUNCTURE A FRONT TIRE, WHICH INCREASES THE RISK OF A CRASH.
Remedy: DEALERS WILL REPLACE BOTH FRONT SPRINGS WITH IMPROVED SPRINGS. THE RECALL BEGAN ON OCTOBER 11, 2005. OWNERS MAY CONTACT ACURA AT 800-382-2238.
Apr 15, 2004
ON SOME MINI VANS, SPORT UTILITY AND PASSENGER VEHICLES, CERTAIN OPERATING CONDITIONS CAN RESULT IN HEAT BUILD-UP BETWEEN THE COUNTERSHAFT AND SECONDARY SHAFT SECOND GEARS IN THE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION, EVENTUALLY LEADING TO GEAR TOOTH CHIPPING OR GEAR BREAKAGE.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: GEAR FAILURE COULD RESULT IN TRANSMISSION LOCKUP, WHICH COULD RESULT IN A CRASH.
Remedy: ON VEHICLES WITH 15,000 MILES OR LESS, THE DEALER WILL UPDATE THE TRANSMISSION WITH A SIMPLE REVISION TO THE OIL COOLER RETURN LINE TO INCREASE LUBRICATION TO THE SECOND GEAR. ON VEHICLES WITH MORE THAN 15,000 MILES, THE DEALER WILL INSPECT THE TRANSMISSION TO IDENTIFY GEARS THAT HAVE ALREADY EXPERIENCED DISCOLORATION DUE TO OVERHEATING. IF DISCOLORATION EXISTS, THE TRANSMISSION WILL BE REPLACED IF DISCOLORATION IS NOT PRESENT, THE DEALER WILL PERFORM THE REVISION TO THE OIL COOLER RETURN LINE. THE RECALL BEGAN ON APRIL 21, 2004, FOR PILOT, ODYSSEY, AND MDX OWNERS. OWNERS OF THE ACCORD VEHICLES WILL START RECEIVING LETTERS ON JUNE 28, 2004, AND ON JUNE 29, 2004, FOR OWNERS OF THE TL AND CL VEHICLES. OWNERS SHOULD CONTACT HONDA AT 1-800-999-1009 OR ACURA AT 1-800-382-2238.
