2 Wiper problem of the 2020 Acura ILX

Failure Date: 03/30/2025

I live in a colder climate, we’re were experiencing temperatures in the 20’s with ice storms. While driving the rear window completely shattered, the rear defroster was on during the time of the incident. I contacted the manufacturer for a remedy, they informed me there is no remedy for my particular vehicle. They suggested I pay out of pocket at a certified Acura dealership to get a dignostic and to get the window fixed. I decided to have the window replaced by safelite. There is a very big and well known problem with the 2020 Acura rdx for this same scenario happening. There was warning light or indication something was going on with the window. Acura needs to address the problem with the rear defroster as this poses a huge public safety risk when this happens while the vehicle is being driven.

3 Wiper problem of the 2020 Acura ILX

Failure Date: 03/11/2025

The back glass burst for no reason; no impact.

4 Wiper problem of the 2020 Acura ILX

Failure Date: 08/18/2022

The factory original windshield wipers caused micro scratches in the glass. Dirt cannot be thoroughly cleaned from the scratches and collects more dirt during driving. When facing the sun, dirt particles in the scratches reflect in the scratches obstructing clear vision. Changing windshield wipers after just two years of use from new did not correct the problem. This particular vehicle is garaged.

5 Wiper problem of the 2013 Acura ILX

Failure Date: 08/09/2019

I'm motion the wiper blades will either stop or start without prompting. The motor is dying . There is no replacement at this time which poses a threat to wipers not be accessible during driving in rain or snow causing little to no visibility.
