The contact owns a 2019 Acura RDX. The contact stated that while the vehicle was parked, the rear windshield shattered without impact. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic, who was unable to diagnose the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. After investigating the failure, the contact related the failure to Service Bulletin: 22-014. The manufacturer was notified of the failure but did not assist. The failure mileage was 35,000.

The back glass shattered without anything hitting it or any visible cracks prior to incident. The lift gate was opened via the automatic function and then closed with the automatic function. The trunk was empty and nothing was touching the glass. While closing the glass shattered and spidered the entire back glass. The temperature was about 45 F. The problem appears to be consistent in the 2019 to 2023 models according to Acura forums.

I’ve had this happen 4 times now with my 2019 RDX. The latest Is on 12/10/23. Low speed braking and the tac revels to over 5000. Vehicle lurches forward with both feet on the brake peddle nearly hit a car broadside that was moving perpendicular to me., Three times under warranty to the dealer who could find anything. They even had the factory rep , in who after keeping the car for 5 days replaced an abs sensor. Now that the warranty is up they want 120.00 an hour to diagnose the problem that they couldn’t before .. But this is a dangerous vehicle that.I’m scared to drive. After reviewing several forums this appears to be a know problem Acura won’t address.

Transmission intermittently gets stuck in a gear while driving and will not shift until car is powered off and on again. Brake system, LKA, power steering, vehicle stability/traction control, hill assist, cruise control, collision mitigation, and road departure mitigation intermittently stop working and error. Infotainment and audio intermittently error or get stuck on after powering off vehicle. Trunk randomly opens when no one is in range of the vehicle. Horn randomly sounds for approximately 30 seconds on hot days after vehicle is stopped. Engine cylinder heads, transmission, and horns have been replaced without resolution. MOST bus system has been replaced twice without resolution. All issues have been recorded on video and documented with the local Acura dealer and Acura Client Relations, but neither has been willing to help reach a resolution.

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.

THE BUCKLE STOPPED LATCHING ON THE DRIVER’S SIDE SEATBELT IN SEPTEMBER 2023. IT WOULD NOT ‘CATCH.’ I WAS NOT ABLE TO USE THE SEATBELT AS IT WOULD NOT LATCH. I TOOK IT TO MY ACURA DEALER WHO REPLACED THE DEFECTIVE BUCKLE. I WAS AT RISK AS I WAS DRIVING WITHOUT A SEATBELT UNTIL MY APPOINTMENT. THERE WERE NO WARNINGS. TODAY I DISCOVERED THAT THERE IS AN ACTIVE RECALL 23V158000 DESCRIBING THIS SAME ISSUE FOR BOTH DRIVER’S SIDE AND PASSENGER SIDE SEATBELT BUCKLES. MY CAR, IDENTIFIED BY ITS VIN, IS NOT LISTED FOR THE RECALL.HOWEVER, THE BUCKLE ISSUE AS DESCRIBED IN THE RECALL IS IDENTICAL. I BELIEVE MY PASSENGER SIDE BUCKLE SHOULD ALSO BE REPLACED AND I SHOULD BE REIMBURSED FOR THE COST OF MY REPAIR TO THE DRIVER’S SIDE BUCKLE. MY VIN SHOULD BE INCLUDED IN THE SAFETY RECALL. I HAVE CALLED THE DEALER WHO VERIFIED THAT MY VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED, ALTHOUGH MY PROBLEM WAS IDENTICAL TO THE RECALL DESCRIPTION. 2023-03-2023 23V158000

I was driving on the highway and it was raining. I tried to pass another car so I started to accelerate. But during my attempt to accelerate, my 2019 Acura RDX would not respond to throttle response. So I slowly started to loose speed the car. The engine warning light started to flash and the car came to a stop on a dangerous road construction area with no medians. I had to turn on my hazards and wait ON THE ROAD at night. I quickly turned off the engine and tried to turn the engine on again. When I turned the engine on it no error codes were shown and the check engine light was gone. I started to drive again and was able to get to a service road. After a while I decided to try to keep driving so I could get home and when I was merging into the highway, it happened again. The same situation, I was accelerating when my engine decided to stop accelerating and flash the check engine light (it didn’t stall but it wouldn’t respond to throttle response). I stopped on the side of the road and turned the engine off before turning it on again. Again the check engine light was not on, and the car acted like nothing happened. It seems like accelerating to higher speed in the rain is a huge safety issue…
