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.
Vehicle stops accelerating while driving and loses power without warning. Multiple engine lights go off: Check engine, emission system problem, all wheel drive system problem, power steering system eps problem, vehicle stability assist vsa problem, hill start assist problem, trailer stability assist problem. Car starts smoking excessively. Returned to the dealer several times in just a few days and they have not been able to diagnose the problem. Problem appears to resolve and then returns after driving no more than 10 miles. Incidents have occurred while operating the vehicle in 45 mph speed zones where we had the ability to pull over and get out of traffic. This will be catastrophic if driving on the highway as the effect of this malfunction is equivalent to hitting the breaks while traveling at high speed. Car is currently back with the dealership for the 3rd time in 4 days. Acura MDX drivers should be alerted to this problem immediately - it happens with no warning.
