  GPS and Bluetooth are unsable- get a base model - 2015 Acura MDX
  By jesseg2 - June 14 - 11:14 am

  I have had my tech package MDX for over 6 months now and can confidently say that a $100 tomtom GPS beats the in-dash hands down. Boot time takes about 60 seconds. Sluggish input. Passenger cannot input an address while moving. score 0 of 10. The Bluetooth phone is horrible. People ask if I have the windows down or if they are on speaker phone. My $100 Plantronics voyager works perfectly. Also cant press any digits on touchscreen when vehicle is moving. But can use the iPhone to press # for conference calls, etc. 0/10 Save your money and get the base MDX. I do love the ride and 28mpg highway that I average. Probably the most comfortable front seats on any SUV out there. 10/10

  Thermometer/AC problem - 2015 Acura MDX
  By avv - June 3 - 11:59 am

  I havent seen anybody else mention this, but its probably my only problem with the car since I bought it last December. If I drive the car awhile, and then park it for an hour or so, the next time I take it out, the car thermometer will read about 10C to 14C degrees higher than what it should be. As a result, the AC will then blow full blast for about 5-10 minutes until the thermometer gradually adjusts itself to the correct temperature as I drive around. For instance, it could be about 17C degrees out, but when I take the car out later, the temperature might read about 29C degrees for a little while. If it stay less than 1h there is no problem at all.

  A Nice SUV ripe with electronic issues - Too bad really - 2015 Acura MDX
  By goddo - April 14 - 7:35 am

  I feel like a guinea pig. I was sold a vehicle and I am the one testing it. This SUV is an amazing highway cruiser and family hauler when its not in the garage for electronic issues. My vehicle has been in the garage for multiple two-week periods trying to fix an electrical issue and now the newest issue is the keyless entry/start system doesnt work. I cant even unlock the doors without removing the key from the fob, and I have to hold the fob next to the button just to start the car (even then you wonder if it will work). I have rattles, knocks, and electronic issues that you would expect from a $15K car but not from a luxury brand. I want to like this car, I really do.

  beware the 19 in wheels - 2015 Acura MDX
  By Carrie Shaheen - April 2 - 12:45 pm

  very happy with my new MDX with 2 exceptions, one serious, the other just annoying. the serious issue, the 19 in wheels are a huge problem if you need to replace a tire anywhere but a large city. NO ONE carries the 19 in tires. i had a flat in Lake City, Fl. My choices Macon or Tpa. 200 miles in either direction. 2 closer Acura dealers did not carry the tire. 200 mi on a donut is too much. worse yet the dealer says a full size spare wont fit. Until these tires become more available Id stay away from them. The annoying issue: the voice controls for navigation, radio etc are just flat hilarious. Call home pretty routinely either adjusts my AC or finds the closest drug store.

  My last Acura - 2015 Acura MDX
  By bhuddle - January 12 - 11:56 pm

  I have owned several Acura products over the years. I traded a 2011 MDX for this new model. I cant believe how much they have cheapened up the new model. The seats are very uncomfortable, covered with low grade leather. The HD screen of the previous model has been replaced with two sub par displays. The infotainment offering is horrible, unintuitive, hard to navigate. It doesnt even have tailpipes, replaced with faux lookalikes. I have to take the key fob out of my pocket and hold it up to the handle to unlock. Overall, a very unsatisfactory vehicle.

  Poor visibility in rear - 2015 Acura MDX
  By mdx514 - January 2 - 10:44 am

  Overall, I have been very pleased with my 2015 MDX AWD with tech package. After driving the car for a couple of months, I have become familiar with programming the nav and radio. My biggest concern with the model is the rear visibility. When crossing a four lane highway, stopping in the median to continue a left-hand turn, visibility is completely blocked by the rear window brace. I have experienced this a few times when the car is sitting at an angle and look to the right, you cannot see anything--very scary and dangerous.

  2015 MDX with Tech - 2015 Acura MDX
  By aparichithan - December 18 - 11:04 am

  I recently purchased a brand new MDX-Tech. Its a good car in many respect for a middle class family like me who can at most shell some 45k towards a 7 seater. But ACURA being a so called luxury brand, I would expect them to use some reasonably good plastic inside. My car seat hinge cover broke apart in one pull... that did not speak about the quality.

  Buyers remorse - 2015 Acura MDX
  By drjaykorsen - November 16 - 4:37 pm

  I had my MDX for just a few weeks and the warning lights started going off for tire pressure, check engine, and a few other things. Brought it in and it had a computer reset. That seemed to help but come on! The computer, nav and radio voice commands are not very intuitive. You have to memorize a text book to make it functional...no thanks! I just got a "recall" notice in the mail I have been waiting for and it is just for the radio, nav and phone, not to address the other computer problem. Lastly, I get flashed every time I drive at night because the headlights Blind Every Oncoming Car...What a 50K dollar pain in the Butt!

  Almost got everything right - 2015 Acura MDX
  By mrso718 - July 24 - 10:11 pm

  My first car was the 2013 RDX so when a 2014 MDX redesign was coming out, I knew I had to get one. Because of the over design and value of this vehicle, two years down the road we (my wife and I) traded in our RDX, which was great, for the 2015 MDX. Fell in love with the vehicle immediately, BUT not a minute longer of driving off the lot, we started to discover little things that the quality of this vehicle is REALLY lacking. Loud adjustable seat motors, scraping noise coming from the steering wheel louder, louder then normal engine, a paint job gone bad, bad outside temperature gauge and the list goes on! Acura what have you done?

  Not sure what others are complaining about - 2015 Acura MDX
  By Alesh - March 3 - 6:50 pm

  Well i had BMW and Audi and trust me except for acceleration, horsepower...nothing else beats Acura or lexus. You always look for efficiency, value for money, quite drive etc... So if other are complaining please drive german cars for 2 years then you will understand what you miss.. My only complain is acceleration but agreed that mileage is top class in this luxury segment...
