Defect. Honda is recalling certain model year 2005 Pilot vehicles manufactured July 29, 2004, through August 29, 2005; model year 2005-2006 Acura MDX vehicles manufactured September 16, 2004, through September 22, 2005; and model year 2005 Acura RL vehicles manufactured March 1, 2004, through June 29, 2005. An electrical capacitor may have been damaged during the manufacturing of the Vehicle Stability Assist (VSA) control module causing intermittent, automatic, minor brake application. However, if the driver applies the brakes while the VSA is malfunctioning, the vehicle may come to an abrupt stop. Additionally, due to a loose ground connection, certain model year 2005 Pilots have a VSA system that may apply partial brake force, without the illumination of the brake lights, whether or not the driver is using the brakes.

Risk. Sudden inadvertent braking, especially without illumination of the brake lights, may increase the risk of a vehicle crash.

Remedy. Owners will be notified and instructed to take their vehicles to a dealer of their respective brand. The dealer will install a partial wiring harness containing a capacitor for the VSA modulator, free of charge. The affected model year 2005 Pilots will have their ground connection tightened. The recall began on April 22, 2013. Honda owners may contact Honda Automobile Customer Service at 1-800-999-1009, and select option 4 or go to www.recalls.honda.com; Acura owners may contact 1-800-382-2238, and select option 4, or go to www.recalls.acura.com.

Defect. Honda is recalling certain model year 2003 and 2004 Pilot and Odyssey and 2003 through 2006 Acura MDX passenger vehicles manufactured from November 26, 2001, through August 30, 2006. The interlock lever of the ignition switch may deform, which can allow the interlock function of a vehicle with an automatic transmission to be defeated.

Risk. Removal of the ignition key when the gear selector of a vehicle with an automatic transmission has not been shifted to the park position can allow the vehicle to roll away, increasing the risk of a crash.

Remedy. Honda will notify owners and instruct them to take their vehicle to a Honda or Acura dealer. The dealer will install an updated shift interlock lever and, if necessary, replace any necessary part of the ignition switch, free of charge. The recall began on February 22, 2013. Owners may contact Honda at 1-800-999-1009.

There is a paracytic battery drain causing new batteries to fail. Troubleshooting says Hands Free Link system may be reason for drain/ dead battery. Or, the Navigation system. There are endless electrical issues within 5 fuse boxes. I’ve done this manually, it’s slow. I know a diagnostic meter would help! So, I’ve installed a battery switch inside car. Must turn off each night! You’d think I’d have a mobile battery charger by now. But thankfully road side service has been a life saver. Although, I was not permitted to sign up for ERS with my insurance after so many battery calls for a year or more. AAA same! It’s ridiculous. Today, had to call ERS again. Ugh. Fortunately I’ve been reinstated. Its been slow-like-molasses-paced.. One fuse disconnected after another. This leaves the vehicle operating without the necessary compenents, helpful features. Examples: x miles per gallon of gas driving city/freeway. . The stereo system completely out, no back up camera, and no Navigation system. All disconnected fuses. No, I don’t have the resources to buy a diagnostic or pay a mechanic $200-300. I’ve been dealing with this nightmare for the last year++. Thankfully, YouTube shows 2006 Acura MDX, Touring series w this drain problem. A huge help! It’s an older car with 240K miles, needs 4 new tires, alignment, both headlamps replaced, . Plus, somehow the rear view mirror got unhooked, torn off, consequently, I’m without the rear back up view. It’s stupid, I realize. Looking at it in hind

Car battery constantly draining resulting in having to jumpstart the car now every time to turn it on. Had the hands free system disconnected by the dealership over a year ago due to them stating it was drawing on battery however it has not changed and went from occasional need to jumpstart to every time you need to turn on car. Have had two new batteries installed and car looked at by dealership and only issue they found was hands free link drawing on battery so disconnected it.

The contact owns a 2006 Acura MDX. The contact stated while driving 40 MPH, the brake pedal was depressed and became stiff. In addition, the vehicle stalled, and the brake lights failed to illuminate. The contact stated that the instrument panel warning lights illuminate on and off. The gear stick would not shift gear as needed. In addition, the vehicle stability assist (VSA) warning light was the only warning light that remained illuminated. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 281,800.

UNKNOWN VEHICLE WILL NOT TURN ON

On several occasions the vehicle will come to a stop and from that stop will begin to stall-at that point almost completely loosing power and an indicator light on dash indicates that an undefined problem *exclamation mark* Each time, the car almost completely slows to almost a stall out, and the car behind me comes dangerously close to hitting me from behind.

I'M LOOKING OVER RECALLS ON KELLEY BLUE BOOK SITE

AS I WAS DRIVING IN A PARKING LOT, I WENT TO APPLY MY BRAKES AS I AM TURNING MY CAR. THE BRAKES FELT HARD ALL OF A SUDDEN EVEN THOUGH I BARELY APPLIED PRESSURE. THE BREAK PETAL HAD A GRINDING SOUND AND APPLIED EXTREME PRESSURE TO BREAK MY CAR BY ITSELF. IT FELT AS IF MY CAR WAS BEING THROWN FROM SIDE TO SIDE. THIS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES IN PARKING LOTS. THIS HAS ALSO HAPPENED ABOUT 3 TIMES ON THE HIGHWAY. WHILE DRIVING AND GOING DOWN A SMALL HILL ON THE HIGHWAY I BARELY APPLIED THE BREAK BUT THE CAR BREAK FELT HARD AND WEIRD AS I BARELY PRESSED IT. IT FELT AND SOUNDED LIKE A GRINDING LOUD NOISE AND CAUSE MY CAR TO PULL VERY HARD TO THE RIGHT AS IF IT WAS GOING TO THROW ME OFF THE HIGHWAY. THANKFULLY EACH OF THOSE FEW TIMES I WAS DRIVING AROUND 30 MPH. EACH OCCASION THE VSA LIGHT CAME ON AND/OR STARTED BLINKING. I HAVE TAKEN MY CAR TO THE GARY FORCE ACURA DEALERSHIP IN BRENTWOOD, TN ON AUGUST 9, 2019. THEY PROCEEDED TO DO BREAKDOWN OF MY CAR AND TOLD ME I NEEDED A NEW WIRING HARNESS AND CAPACITOR THAT WOULD COST OVER $1500. THEY TOLD ME MY CAR WASN'T INCLUDED IN THE RECALL THAT WAS ISSUED ON MARCH 13, 2013. MY VSA LIGHT CONTINUES TO STAY ON AND I STILL AM EXPERIENCING THESE PROBLEMS. I CAN NOT AFFORD THESE PARTS FOR MY CAR AND FEEL THAT ACURA SHOULD INCLUDE MY VEHICLE IN THIS RECALL. I FEAR FOR THE SAFETY OF MYSELF, MY HUSBAND, AND MY 17 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER AS SHE HAS STARTED DRIVING AND USING OUR ACURA MDX 2006. NHTSA RECALL 13V-092 MFR CAMPAIGN ID S89 RECALL DATE 3/13/2013

VSA STOPPED WORKING AND WHEN YOU PRESS ON THE BRAKE IT DOESN'T LIGHT UP. THE VSA LIGHT TURNS ON WHEN PRESSING THE BRAKE SOON AFTER DRIVING A SHORT DISTANCE.

ON 3/9, I WAS PARKING MY 2006 MDX IN AN INDOOR PARKING GARAGE. ABOUT 15 FEET FROM A WALL, IT TOOK OFF REAL FAST. I PRESSED HARDER ON THE BRAKES, BUT IT SLAMMED INTO THE WALL SO HARD. THE AIR BAG DEPLOYED, SMOKE CAME OUT & THE ALARM WENT OFF UNTIL A PASSERBY DISCONNECTED THE BATTERY. I COULDN'T STAND UP FOR A FEW MINUTES. MY INSURANCE CO. DECIDED IT WAS TOTALLED & HAD IT TOWED TO OUR HOUSE INSTEAD OF A BODY SHOP, THEN ONLY GAVE ME ITS BOOK VALUE. I STILL HAVE MANY BRUISES ALL OVER MY BODY AND MY NOSE BLED FOR A WHILE AND WAS SWOLLEN FOR A WEEK. THE SEAT BELT CUT INTO MY NECK AND ITS IMPACT LEFT SEVERE BRUISES ON MY CHEST. THE IMPACT MADE BOTH MY REPLACED KNEES BRUISE AND HURT. I HAD LOWER BACK FOR MANY DAYS. POHANKA ACURA DEALERSHIP TOLD ME THIS IS AN ACURA COMPANY ISSUE. GOOGLE DIDN'T SHOW ANY RECALLS ON ACURA MDX ACCELERATORS. BUT, MANY PEOPLE HAVE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM I HAD WITH THEIR MDX. WHILE BRAKING, THE CAR GOES FASTER INSTEAD. ON 3/11, AND AFTER MANY LEFT MESSAGES TO ACURA, ACURA FINALLY CALLED. I REQUESTED THAT SOMEONE WILL CHECK THE ACCELERATOR, B4 IT WAS TOWED AWAY. HE SAID I NEEDED TO FIX THE CAR AND BRING IT BACK TO ITS ORIGINAL NEW STATE. AFTER THAT, ACURA WILL THEN LOOK AT IT AND DETERMINE IF THE ACCELERATOR HAD ISSUES. I'M VERY RELIEVED I DIDN'T DIE. I'M STILL NOT SURE IF I MIGHT DEVELOP ANY PERMANENT PHYSICAL PROBLEMS FROM THIS ACCIDENT. THE SHOCK, TRAUMA AND INJURIES WERE UNNECESSARY. I'M ALSO VERY GLAD I DIDN'T KILL ANYONE. I WOULD NEVER HAVE BEEN ABLE TO L

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 ACURA MDX. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THERE WAS A FAILURE WITH THE ELECTRIC POWER STEERING AND POWER STEERING PUMP. ALSO, THE POWER STEERING RACK HAD AN INTERNAL LEAK. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED BY DAVID MCDAVID ACURA PLANO (4051 W PLANO PKWY, PLANO, TX 75093, 972-964-6150) UNDER THE CONTACT'S INDEPENDENT WARRANTY. AFTERWARDS, THE HIGH PRESSURE HOSE HAD AN INTERNAL LEAK. ALTHOUGH THE STEERING WHEEL FUNCTIONED NORMALLY, THE SAME DEALER DIAGNOSED THAT THE HIGH PRESSURE HOSE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURES. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 87,650.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 ACURA MDX. THE CONTACT PARKED THE VEHICLE, REMOVED THE KEY FROM THE IGNITION, AND EXITED THE VEHICLE. MOMENTS LATER, IT WAS NOTICED THAT THE VEHICLE HAD ROLLED BACKWARDS APPROXIMATELY 50 FEET. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE CAME TO A STOP WHEN IT CRASHED INTO A BARRIER POLE. NO INJURIES WERE SUSTAINED AND A POLICE REPORT WAS NOT FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING OR REPAIRS. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE.

ACURA A DIVISION OF HONDA HAS KNOW FOR MANY YEARS NOW ABOUT A DEFECTIVE DRAW ON THE BATTERY FROM THE HANDS FREE BLUETOOTH IN THIS VEHICLE EVEN WHEN THE VEHICLE IS SHUT OFF WITH THE IGNITION KEY OUT OF THE IGNITION. I HAVE READ NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS FROM THE 2004 TO 2012 MODELS OF ALL TYPES OF ACURA MODELS. I HAVE INSTALLED TWO NEW BATTERIES IN THE LAST TWO YEARS. VEHICLE SETS MORE THAN TWO DAYS AND THE BATTERY IS DRAWN DOWN ENOUGH THAT VEHICLE NOT ONLY NOT START, BUT YOU CAN'T EVEN GET VEHICLE OUT OF PARK POSITION SO YOU CAN BE TOWED OR PULLED OFF THE ROAD SAFELY UNLESS YOU DRAG IT LOCKED UP. AND YES THIS HAS HAPPENED IN A DANGEROUS SITUATION. WHAT IF YOU LOSE BATTERY POWER FOR SOME REASON GOING DOWN THE ROAD? VERY DANGEROUS TO YOU AND OTHERS ON THE ROAD. I THINK THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL ON ACURAS, HONDA AS MANY YEARS AS THIS PROBLEM HAS PERSISTED AND AS MANY TYPES OF VEHICLES THAT I'M HEARING THIS PROBLEM IS BEING REPORTED ON. I ALSO HAVE READ ONE ARTICLE ABOUT A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT AGAINST HONDA MOTOR COMPANY FOR THIS VERY PROBLEM FROM A INDIVIDUAL IN THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA. ITS TIME IN MY HUMBLE OPINION THAT ACURA - HONDA MOTORS OWN UP TO THIS MISTAKE WHEN WHEN IT GOES BACK SO FAR AND SO MANY TYPES OF VEHICLES WITH THIS ISSUE.

VEHICLE STOPPED ON THE ROAD BECAUSE TRANSMISSION FAILURE, BATTERY WAS REPLACED TWICE BECAUSE OF BLUETOOTH BOARD FAILURE, ALWAYS HAVE RANDOM MISSFIRE CODES ON ENGINE, CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON.

I AM THE OWNER OF THIS AUTOMOBILE & HAD THIS MATTER TAKEN CARE OF SUMMER 2016. I TOOK IT TO SUPERIOR ACURA OF DAYTON; 60 LOOP RD. CENTERVILLE, OHIO 45459. BUSINESS # (937)435-5115.
