I own a 2004 Acura Mdx and 3 out of the 4 air vents (clips) in the front area of the car are broken. They are very cheaply made and fall into pieces when you try to adjust the flow of air. I did some research and found out there is a lot of other people also out there with this problem. Many forums, such as edmunds, has many people complaining about the same thing. They either need to be recalled or Acura needs to start selling replacement clips instead of the entire air vent.
The headlights fog over to the point of significantly diminishing effectiveness. The problem has been reported to the Acura dealer who only offers to charge excessive amounts for a non-guaranteed solution and claims this is not something they see in this car. However, it is clear from regular daily driving that significant numbers of these cars suffer from this problem. The headlights have been cleaned as recommended in the instructions without success. This is an ongoing problem from 2013 to current 2019.
