And it went limp on highway at 70 mph, continue to decelerate rapidly and did not respond to gas and went limp, engine did not rev up with any amount of gas.

The vehicle stalls out (limp mode) when accelerating past 60 mph. It will not go above 3000 rpms. Once that happens, it is difficult to accelerate at all, even at very low speeds. I can press the pedal to the floor and nothing happens. The vehicle shakes considerably when idle.

My 2019 Acura Rdx experienced a total, unexpected loss of engine power while attempting to pass a truck on a 2 lane highway. All propulsive power suddenly disappeared just as I expected the turbocharger to kick in for safe passing. I firmly depressed the accelerator a couple times with zero response from the engine. This was accompanied by a sense of the engine misfiring. My belief is that this propulsion failure is related to a turbocharger activation issue. Please note that while my dealer has found no ongoing engine problem in my car, the dealership has ordered turbocharger related parts and intends to install them next week. Also, while stranded, we searched online and found references to seemingly similar Acura failures that occurred in wet and rainy conditions. We were driving in cool and rainy conditions at the time of this failure. Fortunately, we avoided a crash and coasted to a stop on the left shoulder. Engine was still running and the car put itself into creep mode, which allowed movement to the right shoulder. A very dangerous and potentially fatal accident was luckily averted. The vehicle was hauled 130 miles to my local Acura dealership which reported an engine misfire indication from the car's computer but no further indication of prior or subsequent issues.

My Acura has "stalled" twice now while passing (once at about 4800 miles and the other at about 5600 miles on odo). Both times the car was in cruise control and lane keep assist and traveling on a highway at about 60mph. Both times I was overtaking a large vehicle that was to the right of me. Both times, I put the pedal to the floor, the car accelerated for only a split second, then lost all power, the engine light started blinking and went into limp mode. I had to cut across several lanes of traffic with no engine power to get the shoulder. (very dangerous. ) both times, when I shutdown and immediately restarted the car, it then ran normally. However, both times after this happened, the car's idle start/stop function stopped working (the engine never shut off at stops). So far, I have not been able to purposely recreate the problem when I try to do so in safe driving conditions. The first time I took it to the dealership, they didn't find any code or anything wrong with it. However, whatever they did caused the idle start/stop function to start working again. This time it has been 6 days and the idle start/stop function hasn't activated once (I have not returned to dealer yet). Acura client relations claims they will have a field technician test my car, but I may have to wait weeks or months for that to happen. . Read more...
