While driving at approx. 75mph one rainy evening the engine lost power, and would not maintain speed. After mitigating oncoming traffic from behind I was able to get over 3 lanes to the shoulder and turn the vehicle off. After restarting the ignition, the vehicle resumed with normal power.
I drive a 2020 Acura Rdx having 1,840 miles. While driving on the highway on two separate occasions (approximately several months apart), my car had suddenly decelerated. My foot was not on the break at all. The car would not accelerate when applying my foot on the accelerator. Fortunately there was still enough forward motion in the car for me to be able to pull over to the side without incident. After a few seconds, I stepped on the accelerator again and the car had returned to normal operation. I brought the car in to the dealership for service. They could not find or duplicate the problem related to my experiences. I gave them copies of my internet searches showing other drivers' complaints having similar "limp mode" experiences. The dealership claimed they are not aware of this problem and of any complaints. I find this response absolutely frustrating because the safety of my family and friends are at stake. For now, I am limiting my driving to what is only necessary until this defect is resolved. I am also considering other options.
