This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
While driving some lights in panel start lighting up, gps turns off, engine running but wont accelerate and after few seconds will go back to normal. Took to Acura they ran diagnostictest but can't find no issue. This is life threatening. Need Acura to act on this.
While driving my car surged forward on its on then I lost rpms. My car then cut off on a busy interstate during rush hour. I took to the dealership they said I needed a new transmission. Ironically I had work done on my converter that the dealership recalled and now it has failed and almost had me killed.
Random nav reset followed by non-acceleration until rpms reach over 3000. This has happened multiple times since purchasing this vehicle in July 2012. Navigation/radio system resets. Soon followed by problem of non-acceleration. Ex: following reset, stop at traffic light, stop sign, etc. Light turns green. Car feels as though it is stuck in 1st gear. Will not accelerate over 1000 rpms. Extremely slow movement thru intersection then car slams into gear and rpms top 3000. After rough shift car performance is mostly normal, sometimes hard shifting. Next red light repeat performance. If put into park and then back to drive transmission seems to "reset" and may or may not repeat above action. If car is turned off and left to sit for a short time it usually does not repeat but for how long is anyone's guess. Lately nav reset happens so often I lose count, I just wait for the car to shift into what feels like first gear. Dealership has not been able to recreate this issue. No computer codes show up in system. Multiple complaints to dealer but they claim to have no record and to have never heard of this problem.

My father was just in an accident today. MDX was street parked and when he tried to reverse out the car suddenly accelerated and crashed in to the car behind him and pushed it back about 20 feet.
