    I downsized from a GMC Yukon Denali for better gas mileage, and wanted a dependable newer car as my 04 was aging. I am getting better than the 14/miles/gallon but not happy with car at all. In the first month, already had AC go out during 90+ degree heat. Was told it was low on freon. A brand new car low on freon? The navigation system is beyond frustrating and I end up using my smartphone or my TomTom. The integrated voice command is not user friendly, despite spending many hours programing and watching videos on youtube as to how to "learn" the system. As far as handeling, I know this is not a Denali or a BMW, but the handeling was very disappointing. The first time I drove on wet roads I went through a very shallow puddle and I was nearly pulled off the road! The interior is asthetically pleasing and comfortable, but I am very disappointed with the confusing set up of the bluetooth and voice commands as well as navigation. I really would rather have my non-tech Denali back! Car overall feels like a cheap SUV that has luxury interior. The jewel headlights are GREAT and really light up the road at night. LOVE those!

  • Again......Acura gives you value for the money!! - 2016 Acura RDX

    Traded in a 2006 Acura TL that was really a great car and tremendous value. Would have kept but needed an all wheel drive vehicle due to moving north into snow areas. The RDX is a high quality ride and as always with Acura....reliable and great performance. The ride is smooth with tight handling. Mileage around town is 23-24 and on the road 31-33 depending on terrain. Interior fits well with a normal size person and everything is within reach easily to see and operate. You wont be disappointed with this vehicle.

  • Upscale SUV - 2016 Acura RDX

    Great look. Drives very well. Very disappointed that at this premium price for an upscale SUV the sound quality is mediocre. The Bluetooth keeps on dropping the calls and the phone sound quality is poor.

    Dont waste your time even looking at the other SUVs.

  • 2016 RDX Died in just 22 Days - 2016 Acura RDX
    By -

    Had my new RDX for 22 days and the instrument cluster blew out. Was driving at night and the dash just went dark. Got home but once I turned the car off it would not restart. Just cranked. No instrument lights, doors would not lock and the rear view camera display would not turn off. Had vehicle towed to the dealer on July 15 and there it still sits as of July 29. They replaced the cluster and that did not fix it. Now they traced it to a wiring harness. The dash of my new car has been disassembled and will never be the same nor will I ever be able to trust it. I can already hear all the rattles. I have owned Honda vehicles for 23 years and never had to have one towed. Huge disappointment.

  • Another disappointment - 2016 Acura RDX

    This is my second RDX. I had a 2013 Base AWD drive model which was a very nice car but lacked the technology options. Now I have an Advanced AWD and the technology looks promising but disappoints again. The Nav system has only level of directions; no verbose or minimal. The instructions do not override the radio . I would like to have the radio go silent so I can hear the instructions. Yes I can turn the instructions off which is nice. The speed limit is not shown (nicer would be if the speed would go red if I above it - either 1 mph or some amount I specify). The nice folks at Acura could not help me move my addresses from my Garmin to the Acura Nav system. Wonder if Acura will ever truly think through the tech on their cars?

    Great ride. Dont take that as its a sports car, its not. Just a great cruiser and if you want some fun slip it to sport and use the paddle shifters. Biggest complaint is the voice regonition. Only had it a month but it takes some work to master, and i havnt , and not sure i ever will. Best way is to put in an address before you leave, trying to find a certain restaurant etc on the go gets frustrating. I get better mileage than stated which is a nice surprise. Love the blind spot detector and the backup camera is awesome, really gets a wide view which is great. I am not disappointed with this suv at all, just the oppisite. Best bang for your dollar by far. Oh yeah the seats, especially the cooled option are the most comfortable of all the higher end SUVs, at least for me. Everyone has a different butt and back but for me its like sitting in my lazy boy.
