I brought my car in for recall for the shift interlock 7250a2. A repair or replacement was done by pohanka acura service. After the recall fix, I could still pull the key from the ignition while the care is in drive. I called the dealership and they are trying to fix it again today. I am complaining that the initial fix performed by the dealership was insufficient. I can forward a youtube link of the video if needed.

This complains pertains to my 2005 mdx acura. While driving up a slope close to my home at 50mph, the dashboard suddenly shuts down and the wheels locked up. I took it to dch acura dealer in tustin, ca, and they could not detect any problem or replicate the problem.
Have booming sound coming from the sub-woofer in the rear. Sounds deafening, quite loud and booming. Took it in because I had a warranty and they did nothing- didn't notice they didn't fix it till I got home as I didn't pick up the car. Took it back and they said they replaced the sub-woofer. On saturday driving home and had the car running, went to back to remove something and heard this crazy noise. I though it was coming from the tail pipe, that's how loud it was until I opened the back and realize it was the sub-woofer again! I have seen that a lot of other people are having the same problem, and not sure why there isn't a permanent fix from acura regarding this. The dealership, will imply its your cd's etc, but its not, it sounds crazy whether its the radio or even if you have the bass lowered to help with the noise.
Tl* the contact owns a 2005 acura mdx. While driving approximately 65 MPH she heard a loud noise outside of the vehicle. The "vsa" and "exclamation mark" warning lights illuminated on the instrument panel, and then the vehicle began to jerk violently. The vehicle was taken to an authorized dealer for diagnostic testing. The technician detected a power surge in the battery, but no repairs were made. There was a separate occasion when an identical failure occurred accompanied by a loss of vehicle control. However, the driver was able to gain control. The failure mileage was 49,900. The current mileage was 49,950.
Dt*: the contact stated the vehicle's electrical system went down 5 times and it has had 5 different repairs relating to the electrical system including the battery, gears being shifted without changing gears, the transmission and stalling.
Dt*: the contact stated while driving 20mph the airbag light illuminated without warning and the engine stalled. The engine would not restart and the battery was discharged. Afterwards, the airbag and tire mounting light illuminated. The vehicle was seen by the dealer and the battery was replaced. The dealer determined the navigation unit was draining the battery. The engine stalling persisted and the vehicle lost all power. The engine was restarted but continued to stall. The vehicle was towed to the dealer who determined there was a short within the airbag SRS module wiring. Although the airbag problem was corrected, the stalling continued. The vehicle was taken to the dealer for further inspection, but the dealer was unable to duplicate the stalling problem.
