I own a 2007 Acura Mdx which has had a number of intermittent electrical problems over the years. I had to replace the handsfree link module a few years ago at the dealer. The yellow check oil level light has come on for no reason for years. It goes on for a second then off. A few months ago the entire electrical system �fried� and I had to buy a new battery and new alternator. Recently I hear a buzzing sound when I use the turn signals and the hazards do not work at all. Last night the car died on the interstate- the instrument panel went dark, the engine would not accelerate, and I was lucky to be able to get onto the shoulder. I turned off the car and then started it again. When it works there is no problem with the operation but this car is now unreliable and dangerous. I see there have been over 40 complaints for the same thing noted on carcomplaints. Com referring to the NHTSA website, about the car dying for no reason while in motion and that no Acura dealer seems able to fix it and Acura refuses to acknowledge the problem or do a recall the car is now at my mechanic to see if he can find out what is wrong but all the comments I saw on carcomplaints. Com indicate there has not yet been a definitive diagnosis made by Acura or anyone else, and there is no active recall either this is extremely dangerous as the other complaints also indicate that the doors and windows do not operate when the car stalls out and occupants can be trapped inside the car.

The car overheated and was leaking blue fluid, started smoking and had a weird chirping noise coming from the engine. The car was parked and was jumping another car with a dead battery.
Hearing grinding/buzzing sound toward left front-side / engine area when driving between 20+ miles per hour. This noise is intermittent but occurs during every commute. Noise occurs quickly then goes away. When driving 2-hours in traffic, heard over 30 grinding/buzzing noises at various speeds. Noise can be subtle to audibly clear from the back-seat. This has been occurring for past month and half, and grinding / buzzing noise is audible at ever commute. At first warranty repair, dealership service rep said that this is coming a common issue for 2014 Acura Mdx and it's a bulkhead cover strikers and latches issue. Replaced the part without further diagnosis. Took back to dealership second time and test drove with mechanic. Mechanic confirmed the grinding / buzzing noise. Repair did not fix the issue and grinding / buzzing noise is still occurring. Found on youtube and online 2014 Acura Mdx forums that other 2014 Mdx owners are having same issue.

This is the fourth incident of unintended engine revving with this vehicle. This fourth incident occurred at 7121 miles. Was in "reverse," positioning the vehicle to pull into a parking space. The engine suddenly accelerated while I was in "reverse" and my foot on the brake pedal. Had to firmly press on the brake pedal to hold the car from running into people and other vehicles behind our vehicle. Shifted into "neutral". The engine sounded like one third of full throttle. I pressed on the gas pedal and the engine returned to idle. My wife was with me during this incident. She was with me in the vehicle during three of these four similar incidents.
Motor mounts going bad and breaking in Mdx Acura 01-current. Replacing between 40k-80k. Intake system clogged (airport) gives bad gas mileage and to unclogg runs $200 at dealership. Makes vibration and noise as if you are going over a speed bump heading towards a toll booth.
