general problems of the 2004 Acura MDX

I was in a parking mode and was leaving the parking lot. I reversed my car lo leave, and the car went out of control and was not until it crashed on two other parked cars that came to a stop. Then, after reversing my car, when trying to put it into drive, it would not move. When I tried to turn it off, the engine (re) started again and it worked so I could clear the path for other cars and wait until the police came. I had major maintenance at Acura hopkins 2 and 3 years ago, I had a new steering pump and hoses changed 5 months ago and new front and rear brakes 3 months ago. Many people who are familiar with cars tell me that it was probably the rings. I don't know it may be the transmission? there was a police report as there were two other cars involved and both with severe damages. State farm considered my car totaled despite the large amount of money spent to bring this car to almost new condition.

Sunday 2/42004 the car just shut off on me brakes stop working could turn could stop.

Was driving to the store and the vehicle lost all power it will crank and idle but. When u push the gas pedal it will not accelerate all the dash lights are flashing or staying on as of right now the vehicle is on the side of the road I had to walk 15 miles cause I left my phone at home so I couldn't call no one and. My 11 year old daughter was with me so she had to walk as well.

This vehicle has been scraped and is no longer in service. Please stop sending me notices. The title was surrendered to the salvage company.

I saw my car listed on the airbag recall on tv, I called and gave the lady my VIN# she said it's not on the list ! she told me to ck this due and put my VIN in so some one can let me know if there is a recall for anything or any part.

Purchased new in 2004. During maintenance I found the rear frame behind the bumper covering to be severely rusted. Not surface rust but chunks that I can easily pull off by hand. Concerned about the structural integrity of the vehicle and my safety I contacted Acura consumer relations. Spoke with someone who just said they can't help because my vehicle is out of warranty. I feel that something is probably wrong with their materials used to allow such severe rust to occur and eat away at the frame.

Inside rear bumper, frame rusted through. Not surface rust but large chunks easily pulled off. Contacted Acura. Was told it was out of warranty.

I discovered severe frame rust under my rear bumper cover. Large chunks of rusted metal are easily pulled off by hand. I'm concerned about the ability of the bumper/frame to prevent serious injury to my family in the event of a rear collision. The pictures I've submitted are at least three years old. I suspect the situation has deteriorated since then. These were the pics I submitted to Acura at that time, when they informed me they could do nothing as my vehicle was out of warranty. I've since found reports of others with similar rust problems on their Acura Mdx as well as Honda pilots, which I believe share the same frame assembly'.

Hi I'm seeking guidance my mom purchased a used 2004 Mdx and she she only drives it to and from work about a five min drive and one morning after she arrived to work ten min later her car caught in flames fire fighter investigators stated it was an electrical issue what can I do. About this VIN # 2hnyd18714h508309 2004 Acura Mdx incident date of April 1,2016 around 630 am in the parking lot of lompoc hospital CA 93435 we received recall notice three weeks later saturaday April 23,2016.

My Acura Mdx 2004 has had the window regulators replaced three times and now both windows are broken again. When the window slams down into the door frame it makes a terrifying noise which has caused me to nearly wreck twice. The worst incident was when a regulator failed and I caught a piece of plastic road debris in the face (couldn't close the window) going approx 70mph on the freeway. I have a scar on my forehead and was covered in blood. I thought that I had bad luck for a while, but have researched it, and this is not just me. Thousands of Honda and Acura drivers have the same problem. Most have replaced regulators many times in the same vehicle. Please please do something to make Acura/Honda provide a free and reliable solution to this massive problem. I can't pay another bill for this and am using cardboard and a garbage bag over the windows now.

The airbag light warning continues to come on and stay on. Sometimes is goes off, but comes back on later. This was reported to the dealer in charge of airbag recall and the only solution offered was paying a hefty fee to diagnose the issue without guarantee. This was reported in 2014 and has been an ongoing problem before this and currently, 2019.

I was moving out of a parking space and bam!. . . The drop of tranny fluid and radiator fluid on the spot. When I took it to a mechanic, they told me this was the 4th Honda car they have had with same problem, they found out in all cases it was the pressurized hose connecting these two important parts had corroded to the point of failure. I have been hearing more about this and it is now disturbing to me. In my case my tranny is fine and all I needed was a new radiator and all new fluids. The car was not able to move and that may have saved the tranny. Got it towed and fixed the next day by trusted shop even though it was almost 800 dollars.

Reproducibly at automatic transmission shifting speeds between 20-25mph, 30-35mph and 40-45mph there is an audible and palpable shudder as the transmission hesitates prior to shifting. Have brought vehicle to Acura dealer 3 times over the past 5 years, every time stating the same complaint, and every time referencing a convincing multitude of Acura Mdx owners noting a similar problem. Every time Acura service states they could not reproduce the problem and nothing is wrong with the vehicle. The last time I even drove the car with their chief mechanic, who verified the problem and stated it must be the torque convertor, but Acura only performed an automatic transmission flush and reset the transmission computer settings that they charged me for, and neither solved the problem. This is a serious dangerous problem and eventually someone is going to get seriously hurt. . Read more...
