1 Other Fuel System Pump problem

Failure Date: 02/18/2019

2016-2018: noticed car occasionally hesitant like not �getting� into gear but no stalling. Wife driving car and stalls while stopped at a light. Simply restarts car with no issue. February 2019: wife driving car and stalls but when restarted, all lights in dash are on and car will only move forward at idle speed and throttle completely not responsive (e. G. , can press gas pedal to floor with no acceleration). Regal Acura (2615 lakeland hills blvd bldg 2, lakeland, FL 33805, (863) 262-4238)) visit 1 (March 2019): matthew in service. Regal service does full check and reports �nothing wrong. � March 2019: vehicle continues with hesitancy and stalls. Regal Acura visit 2 (March 2019): bring back to matthew and they repeat check and finding nothing wrong. I insist on fuel line flush which I pay for. April 2019: vehicle continues with hesitancy and stalls. I call matthew in regal Acura service and let him know that there is a recall (p3w Mdx) on this issue. Regal Acura performs software update. Vehicle continues to exhibit hesitancy while driving. April 2019: I receive letter from Acura automobile division outlining the recall: 1. Safety consequence per recall: �reduced fuel flow to the engine combined with vehicle operation in high temperature conditions can restrict vehicle acceleration and/or cause an engine stall, which increases risk of crash. � 2. What will Acura do? �the dealer will update the software for the engine control unit�. If the diagnostic scan confirms a previous occurrence of engine stalling, the fuel pump will be replaced for free. � I have had multiple calls with regal Acura and Acura national and they will not replace fuel pump nor will they let me purchase a new fuel pump because there are none available due to the recall!!! I feel this car is unsafe to drive with current fuel pump as outlined in the attached recall letter.

2 Other Fuel System Pump problem

Failure Date: 09/26/2016

Nothing but trouble since I bought it. Purchased Jan 2016. Has replaced --- navigation, amplifier & fuel pump!!! owned 2016 Mdx for less than a week- vehicle jolts forward-gives itself extra gas even when your foot is on the brake! transmission not smooth. Been in for service over 40 days now (total). Hesitates sometimes- was stuck at 15 mph for a few minutes. Radio goes unresponsive- no buttons work gets stuck at station/vol can't turn off either. Navigation died- turned off, then flickered(was replaced) . Speakers went flat- amplifier died (was replaced). The engine idle feature doesn't work right. It doesn't keep my samsung phone charged. I've tried multiple cords including the original one that came with phone. Acuralink doesn't always work either. I sent a destination but it doesn't show up for a few hours or days! it tweets now. The window now squeaks (no, it is not tinted or anything). It makes a strange dripping noise when you turn it off. It eats gas! I fill it up and it's gone in a blink. . Not the appropriate miles. It beeps loudly and blinks that there is an object approaching for no reason- no one/thing there- nothing moving. It has a mind of it's own. I've been a loyal Honda/Acura owner for over 18 years and they have not helped. When they replaced the navi they said they'd give me $500 for my trouble- but didn't anyway. They say there is nothing wrong with it-- but just Monday said it needs a new fuel pump but is "so new" they don't have one so it had to be ordered. Disgraceful. I asked for it to be replaced- was denied. Acura client rep says- "at this time there is nothing we can do" I have a spinal condition and the jolting hurts me greatly. Somedays I can't drive my brand new vehicle bc I cant take the pain. They don't care. They don't stand behind their product either. Highly disappointed in vehicle and company.
