ACURA MDX 2010 car safety problem was reported on Dec 21, 2012.ACURA MDX 2010, manufactured by Honda (American Honda Motor Co.) had a problem with SERVICE BRAKES . i was driving and prior to hitting my brakes, several alert messages popped up and a voice started reading them out. the messages are still saved on the acura's computer, but since the car is in the shop right now, i don't have access to recall them exactly. the only one i remember said that the vehicle stability assist and tcs may not operate and it tried to direct me to find the nearest acura dealership. there was also a message about abs. when i pressed the brakes, there was minimal resistance, and the car didn't stop whatsoever. it didn't skid or slide, there was no brake pressure at all. i had a few seconds to decide if i wanted to: pull into a ditch and probably flip the suv, pull into oncoming traffic, or hit the car in front of me that was stopped at a red light. i ended up choosing the latter and hitting the car, after my car didn't decelerate or brake whatsoever. the alert messages remained accessible on the computer of the car after the accident and i can retrieve them after the car is repaired. there was significant damage to the front of the suv, but i am obviously most concerned about the safety of the car being that the brakes were not functional during to the accident whatsoever. the brakes were functional after the accident and the car had been restarted, so the problem is concerning for sure, but intermittent. *tr.Vehicle was involved in a crash. 0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 50000 miles.

Acura Mdx 2010 Exterior Lighting

Acura Mdx 2010 Exterior Lighting Review #10640238

ACURA MDX 2010 car safety problem was reported on Nov 15, 2011.ACURA MDX 2010, manufactured by Honda (American Honda Motor Co.) had a problem with EXTERIOR LIGHTING . acura's mdx has insufficient back-up lighting, which makes it impossible to safely back up at night. it also renders the back-up camera useless. the acura service department was unable to advice on a solution; as they tell you to move the navigation dial to brighten the light, but that did not solve the problem. it is important to note that this problem only exists if there is no additional street lighting that could assist with illuminating the area behind the vehicle. therefore, drivers who live in a well-lit community (city) may not notice the problem. but backing up on a country road, or somewhere with no other artificial (street) lighting, there's no safe way to back up my acura. the backup lighting is simply insufficient and does not offer a way to safely back-up the vehicle..0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 2000 miles. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):2HNYD2H75AH. Acura Mdx 2010 problem was reported in ATHENS, OH. Vehicle was not using ANTI-LOCK BRAKES. Vehicle was not using Cruise Control. VEHICLE SPEED: 15 mph.
