My 2001 acura mdx has a defective airbag (srs) system. Three times in the last 12 months, it has disabled itself when driving on the freeway in heavy rain. It has failed in exactly the same very dangerous conditions each time. It stays disabled until i can get an appointment with an acura dealer to reactivate it, which is a real hassle. The dealer says they have no way to fix it. They told me that acura is aware of the problem and can't figure out what to do, and are refusing to replace the apparent defect unit. The dealer's solution to this serious safety defect: "change your driving habits". This solution is very unacceptable.
Horn assembly location is in a bad place for blowing the horn.dealership is aware ofproblem.deale r toldconsumer that it was thedesign for that particular vehicle.
The truck was stopped at a light.suddenly, the vehicle began to jerk forward.we took off from the light and the truck began to violently jerk as if someone was jamming on the brake.the engine light and 4 wheel drive light came on.the truck became undriveable and had to be towed to the tischer dealer.the truck was repaired and we were told it was the air intake valve.i'm issuing this complaint because obviously a brand new luxury truck should not experience this type of problem so soon in its life.it is also, obviously, a defect in the part.the defect may extend beyond just our truck so we are alerting nhtsa to track.
Fuel tank overflows on gas filup - even after gas shuts off, gas comes up and out of tank at the filler hole spilling onto side of car and rear wheel and real wheel brake rotor.happened twice on 4 fillups (so far), without topping off, using different gas stations/pumps.
2001 acura mdx transmission failure, needs another transmission, 1st transmission replaced at 63k, needed a 2nd transmission at 125k, now a 3rd transmission at 175k.
Transmission failures this may be a safety hazard. If the transmission failure occurs while driving the vehicle, the vehicle sometimes slows down abruptly, especially when the driver is accelerating. For example, when trying to pass someone, the transmission will suddenly leave the engine revving high, but the car won t actually accelerate and actually slows down, sometimes very noticeably. This can cause someone to rear end you if they re coming up from behind you not expecting you to suddenly come to halt for no apparent reason.
It took over a month to have car repaired, resean being - over 50 transmissions were on back order. That gose to show that there are many more who are having this same problem.thank-you for your time and help...zia yusuf
Driver's side seat belt fails to retract after being in use. Would be onfloor after being unbuckled. 2nd time put in new retractor, 1st time an adjustor.
Front rotors warp due to metallic brake pads under normal use resulting in increase of normal braking distance
At freeway speeds i can hear a loud wind noise at the top of the driver's door. I have taken the car back to the dealership on several occasions but nothing has been done to correct the problem.

Design flaw: driver side mirror can not be adjusted outward far enough to eliminate dangerous blind spot if driver seat in rearmost position.
