general problems of the 2016 Acura MDX

The contact's daughter owned a 2016 Acura Mdx. The contact stated that while her daughter was driving approximately 70 mph on an interstate, another driver crashed into the rear passenger's side and the front passenger's side of the vehicle, causing the vehicle to spin clockwise. Several unknown warning lights were illuminated. The driver hit her shoulder and lower back against the driver's side door. The driver later received medical assistance and was being treated for lower back and shoulder injuries. No police report was filed. The rear tires were damaged and became flat. The vehicle was towed to the dealer, and the vehicle was later towed to the dealer's auto body shop, where it was totaled. The dealer was notified of the failure. The manufacturer was not contacted. The failure mileage was approximately 92,900.

Front driver side airbags spontaneously deployed while driving.

Air bag alert light came on with red airbag and steering wheel sign. Taking it to dealer tomorrow, and will update tomorrow. This happened while I was driving strait on freeway.

Brand new Acura Mdx 2016 was purchased from weir canyon Acura Honda in anaheim, California on March 18th 3/18/2016. It has 40k bumper to bumper warranty per paperwork and dealer plus purchased extended 100,000 8-year warranty for any defects, etc. Again bumper to bumper. Within one week on 3/25/2016 within only 190 miles on the odometer on this brand new $60k vehicle glass windshield defect was noticed with cracking despite not seeing or hearing anything hit the windshield. It was driven on California freeway home from anaheim to north san diego county (120 miles. ) upon noticing the defect the dealer was contacted but they said anything can hit the glass and said will do nothing about it. (contacted eli sales manager and paul swim general manager of weir canyon Honda Acura) then performed a search on the internet and noticed many other Acura owners have glass breakage and cracking issues and there are blogs and entries from Acura owners on the internet's google search of Acura glass cracking breakage and it seems to be a common trend. So I proceeded to contact dealer again to discuss it some more with the dealer and explained to them this is brand new vehicle purchased with new auto warranty plus additional $3000 extended warranty from your dealership so why are you not performing customer care and care about defect in your vehicle's safety component (windshield) but they hung up the phone or used profanity when called back. Paul swim general manager even commented that even one of his own loaner dealership vehicles has a crack break on the windshield glass despite being new. Opened case with Acura headquarters in torrance CA on 3/29/16 case# 4559849 but talking to their manager (juan) and district manager they refused to be accountable and ignored complaint as well. The front windshield is basically weak fragile and unable to provide reasonable safety.
