| Power Train problems |
When cruising or coming off a stop, my car is incapable of accelerating promptly if I am trying to get out of the way or even merge into oncoming traffic on a highway. There is a severe acceleration delay perhaps with the throttle body. I have seen online complaints but the dealership said there has to be an actual recall number to correct this. My car has been in several times to fix this. A computer reset did not work. My car is one year old.
The contact owns a 2024 Acura Mdx. The contact stated the messages, "parking sensor failure, see the dealer," and the "brake performance failure, (brakes may be reduced, see dealer" messages illuminated. The front collision sensor would alarm the driver when there was no cause for the sensor to activate. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, who reset the computer systems and replaced the front bumper sensor. After having the vehicle repaired while the brakes were applied, the brake hold would fail, and the brakes would release. The vehicle was taken to a second dealer, kearny mesa Acura, 5202 kearny mesa rd, san diego, CA 92111, who was unable to diagnose the cause of the failure. The contact did notice that the tires were out of alignment; however, as a result, the brake failure no longer occurred. While driving at various speeds, the vehicle would surge forward as if it were going from 1st to 3rd gear immediately, and while decelerating to come to a stop. While driving approximately 5 mph in a parking lot, the vehicle suddenly felt as if shifted to 3rd gear. The driver had to immediately press the brakes to stop the vehicle. The vehicle was taken to a third dealer, Acura of escondido, 1502 auto park way n, escondido, CA 92029, the dealer who was unable to diagnose the cause of the failures. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was informed of the failures and opened a case. The failure mileage was approximately 9,747.
