Acura RDX Change Vehicle

"In beige color, screen can't be brightened to see choices"

"Numbers and letters on display screen were jumbled and not readable. Received prompt and corrective action from ACURA dealer"

"Occasionally (but not frequently), the radio control channels do show correctly on the entertainment screen."

"The screen would freeze and or show jibberish"

"The pre-set channels came up blank, wrong, or late. The dealer replaced the unit and it works ok now"

"When I go into reverse the backup camera does not always come on. I have taken it in and they say that is the way they are and that you have to immediately put the car in reverse after you turn it on. Don't take a few seconds to fix mirrors etc. Unfortunately I still have the problems sometimes even when I immediately put it in reverse. Then once I back up without the camera and put it into drive the backup camera comes on and is very disruptive. It almost makes you dizzy."

"The screens would fill with random gibberish or go blank. A new unit was installed."

"I've taken the RDX in numerous times, but nothing has been done to stop the issue. I provided photos and a video of the screen going black. The bottom line is this- planning on trading it"

"I had some issues continuing the SIRIUS XM on the car past the free period. It also loses my speed dials and contacts"

"Interface with iPhone does not work - requires a Pandora app that doesn't work. USB regularly cuts out with iphone and disconnects. Blue tooth is very slow reaction"

"Pandora connection is very poor. Interface does not sync consistently with current selection"

"Nav has numerous errors such as incorrect street names, exit names and numbers"

"You need to learn Acura language, it is totally useless when driving using voice commands and not much better when stopped and using on screen controls. Only way I can even begin to use it without wasting time is through Acura Link which I can then forward to the vehicle, then it works. In contrast I rented a 2017 Ford Escape, that took me 30 seconds to learn, it understood my voice commands even when I wasn't very clear!"

"Nav system does not work with toll roads even though there is an option for it"

"NAV is a joke, completely useless. I use it as entertainment comparing it to WAZE which is flawless"

"The Navigation is completely useless. It is supposed to route you around traffic but it does not. i takes you on convoluted routed to your destination. There are numerous errors min the maps. Acura dealer reinstalled software to no avail. I don't use it anymore, I use Waze"

"Most of the time having trouble with incoming and out going phone calls"

"Android phones keep dropping and reconnecting on conversations"

"Occasionally I have to pair my phone to the Bluetooth. It should stay paired al the time. not worth going back to dealer for"

"You have to reset it every once in a while (Pairing)"

"Sometimes radio would show information in what looked like Japanese characters versus English"

"Screen displayed unknown characters/symbols instead of the station call numbers, i.e. 92.9 FM etc"

"Radio display response was very slow and sometimes the display was in Japanese"

"Intermittently, all stations except one disappear and SiriusXM doesn’t work. Then everything's okay the next time the car starts."

"Channel screen fields on the screen would remain blank"

"The voice control feature is near worthless, as it rarely identifies the commands we are giving to it the first time (or at all). It's quite frustrating, especially since it makes the in-car navigation system essentially not worth using."

"the system often does not follow commands"

"Same issue as Navigation system, needing to use Acura language - useless!"

"Acura RDX mostly driven in the city, brakes seem to be undersized for the size/weight of the car."

"Back right brake locked up and wore pad down to nothing for second time in life of vehicle. No warning; no noise until squeal of metal-on-metal; brake had been recently inspected. First time was repaired under warranty. Second time was still under warranty but had to pay myself because unwilling to drive 2.5 hours to Acura Service Center with bad brake. Mechanic questioned whether Acura's prior warranty repair had been properly performed."

"Became a problem within weeks of purchase of certified vehicle and resolved in less than 6 months when I had to pay full retail price for replacement upon my first routine inspection. Neither the dealership or Acura provided relief."

"service team detected a scratching on the brake pad and replaced them at no charge"

"Was a recall issue"

"Rear caliper had locked up and worn pad down until almost gone. Not detected by car. Took for service due to pulsation in pedal."

"the dealer replaced the rotors and pads under warranty on a premature wear concern"

"Heard some wheel noise when turning to the right. Brought the car to the dealer. They told me that the front breaks were worn out and that the change was covered by Acura Warranty"

"Pulsation on braking when the car had its first 19000 km"

"Started shortly after purchase and resolved upon replacement of rotors, pads and tires. The vehicle was certified and Acura offered no help in resolving the issue and the dealer ship accepted on ly partial responsibility ."

"Brakes had some vibration and mild noise during routine breaking."

"Pads to small? Causing increased wear on the rotors?"

"Has twice gone out of round."

"Rotor Pulsation on braking when within the first 19000 km"

"Made a clunking noise when braking. They replaced the pads and rotors"

"After numerous attempts by Acura to fix the squeaking problem they now say there's nothing more they can do until manufacturer comes out with a fix. This issue is annoying given this is brand new car!"

"Approx every 5,000-7,500 the brakes start sound squeaking and grinding type noise. First time, the dealer said brakes were glazed and they resurfaced them, second time they replaced front rotors and pads, have not returned for recent noises yet"

"Was a recall issue"

"Some mild noise when routine breaking"

"Drivers side brake caliper clip was causing squeaking noise when making left turns going uphill. Had dealership deny that this is an issue. Replaced brake pads (paid for it), but issue reoccurred in few months. Googling on internet led to suggestion to replace retaining clips and now issue is resolved. Again paid for it myself. Disappointed at dealership / Acura service since apparently this happened to enough RDXs."

"Front breaks were squeaking. In September, the company replaced the clips under warranty, In April, it started to squeak again and they replaced the pads and relined the rotors. All this was under warranty."

"Factory issue with squeaking brakes. Dealership completely repaired at no charge."

"Vehicle began squeaking when turning left. When the dealer serviced it, the were able to replace a bearing in the brakes and it was covered uder warranty."

"There was a rattle in the dash. It was eventually fixed at the dealership the 3rd time we took it in"

"There is a loud squeak in the Dash for the past 30 days. I have not had the vehicle serviced yet to see if Acura can diagnose the issue"

"Squeak around the dashboard"

"It was fixed by Acura dealer but once in a while we hear the rattle again."

"Rattle from rear of vehicle over rough roads."

"car is noisy going down the road. hear noise from tires to body"

"This has been consistent since purchase. Outside wind noise at certain speed"
