The vehicle is showing LOW SPEED BRAKING CONTROL and BRAKE SYSTEM PROBLEMS, it is also throwing DTC Codes B2600-97; B2627-96; B2630-96; B2637-11; P2583-76 and P2583-97, as I consider the vehicle unsafe to drive or operate and it is a leased vehicle I took it to the same Acura dealer I leased the vehicle from, in order to have it repaired and put back to a normal operating status and make it safe to drive and operate. I took it to the dealer, advantage Acura of Naperville, on Friday October 9, 2026. The dealer is refusing to repair the braking failure under the manufactures warranty, as the vehicle only has 31thousand miles on it, and it still is within the manufactures warranty period.

The windshield on this 2024 MDX must be replaced because of the rear view mirror coming loose from the windshield. Acura is dragging their feet on correcting this dangerous situation of preventing the ability to see or use the rear view mirror.

I am reporting a potential safety defect involving the rear windshield glass on my Acura MDX. The rear windshield unexpectedly shattered while the vehicle was stationary, with no known impact or contact with an outside object. I was present when the glass shattered and immediately took multiple photographs and videos before the vehicle was moved. Based on what I observed, the glass appeared to break outward rather than from an outside object striking the vehicle. I later drove the vehicle from my home to the Acura dealership after being advised to do so. By the time the vehicle was inspected, portions of the shattered glass were understandably missing.

Went to get into my 2024 Acura MDX parked car this morning temperature around 68 degrees and noticed the back window of my 2024 MDX had shattered out. There was a large section of glass missing and the glass looks as if it was pushed from the inside out. The vehicle had not been driven or started since the last evening. It seems as though this was a problem with prior Acura models in previous years. Went to the dealer and talked to the technician who said it is not covered under Acura warranty. This is definitely a safety issue as I could have been driving down the interstate when this happened putting my life and others in danger. I can only assume this is an issue Acura is aware of with…

Our infotainment system stopped working and when we took it one of Acuraâs authorized dealers they told us that back half of the car is flooded and that has shot down all the electronics including the infotainment system. They also gave me a bill of $10K USD to fix the leak and replaced damaged electronics. Their argument is that the car was parked outside and that caused this issue. This has never come up in any of our previous maintenance visits where Acura certified dealerships always check our car and tell us that everything is okay.
