2019 Acura Rdx

I have owned my RDX for four years and have 60,000 miles on the car. I was driving on a two lane road when a car was coming from the opposite side into my lane. I hit the horn and nothing. I repeatedly hit the horn and no sound came out. I was almost killed because I could not warn the other driver. I have probably used my horn a few dozen times since I have owned this car. This is a known problem and there is a service bulletin. My horn was replaced as it was defective. There was no warning. This could be a life and death issue and should be recalled by Acura.

My rear glass shattered and the broken glass went into the tailgate. Due to its design flaw, it's impossible to completely remove the shattered glass from the tailgate. This is a safety hazard as broken glass can fall out from the small holes on the tail gate. This is a known problem in our model, and the design flaw has been confirmed by an auto glass repair professional.

When I was approaching my vehicle from the rear, I noticed my back window had chunks of glass missing and it appeared cracked. As I got closer, I noticed the entire back window was shattered. Pieces of glass were on the ground, meaning this occurred here, at the store. I would have noticed this earlier when leaving work because I approach my vehicle from the rear and the window was fine. Even looking through the rear window while driving it was clear. I went back into the store I was at and asked the store management to review the cameras to see if a person did this. I contacted the police. Management of the store stated no one approached my vehicle. They did see “a weird occurrence of the glass just shatter, no one was near the vehicle”. The police showed up, reviewed video and said there was nothing they could do because no crime was committed. I contacted my insurance to have it repaired. I had to drive the vehicle home and then to Safelite to have it repaired, all while my rear view vision was obstructed by having shattered glass. The way the glass shattered, pieces could have struck a person walking by. If I were in the vehicle or had people in the backseat, they would have been struck with glass. Glass was scattered all throughout the back of the vehicle. I believe the tint I had on the window kept it from completely falling into the trunk. If this would have happened while being driven, it could have caused an accident. Safelite replaced the window, but was unable to remove the glass that had fallen into the tailgate. I now hear glass moving around when I drive and also when I lift and lower my tailgate. This is going to depreciate the vehicle value and also prevent me from selling the vehicle. I have also noticed while doing research, many other owners of RDX are having the same issue, yet no Recall. Acura has not considered this to be a problem.

I was driving on the interstate at 75 miles per hour. The back window literally exploded. There was a very loud boom. Upon pulling over, I discovered that the window had shattered. Part of the glass fell down inside the car. We were not going under an overpass and did not hit anything that would have caused the glass to suddenly shatter. Acura has issued a Technical Service Bulletin (TSB) but not a recall. Since the car was out of warranty, the repair is not covered. The internet is full of posts about unexplained glass shattering on 2019 Acura's. This is a safety issue.

Rear glass window shattered out of nowhere. Thankfully the car was parked when it happened. It’s bound to happen on these cars and when reported to Acura they did nothing. My car was parked in front of my house all night with a camera recording it and there was nothing else that could’ve happened to it. Also, when inspected, you can tell the glass was not impacted in anyway. It shattered from the inside out. There was no warning lights or anything prior to the incident. On a side note, I believe this problem is covered under warranty in Canada but not in the US, which means Acura knows about the problem but isn’t doing anything about it here.

2019 Acura RDX Advance - Upon entering driver side and closing driver door, rear hatch glass shattered. Vehicle was stationary in my closed garage in Upstate NY after being parked overnight and was then remote started to warm up. Approx. overnight temps were in the teens. There was no evidence of any prior damage to the glass. Damage to the window is more in the lower center above the rear wiper mount.

The rear (trunk) window of my 2019 Acura SUV shattered upon entrance into the vehicle after I closed my driver side door. The vehicle was parked at my place of employment and when I approached the vehicle, the vehicle looked fine, and window was intact. In addition, there prior to the incident, there is no visible crack on the window or indication of attempted theft. There were no lights warning issues. The vehicle has always been serviced by the dealership and never was I informed of any issues with the rear window. This is a safety issue as the window could have shattered while I was driving the vehicle and the sudden shattered cause have harm passengers in the back seat. I was fortunate that I was not driving which may have caused an accident not knowing what could have occurred on the road especially on a freeway.
