HFL MODULE # 39770-STX-A011-M1 STOPPED WORKING PREVENTING CONNECTION TO MY CELL PHONE. 2009 MDX WITH 92,004 MILES. CALLED ALL THE DEALERSHIPS IN MY AREA AND OTHERS ON THE INTERNET AND NO ONE HAS THE MODULE. I WAS TOLD BY THEM IT'S ON NATIONAL BACK ORDER FOR SONE TIME NOW ( 2/5/2020 ) . DOING FURTHER RESEARCH BROUGHT TO LIGHT THERE IS A 2016 OR 2017 CLASS ACTION SUIT ON THIS HFL MODULE/SYSTEM FAILING AND DRAINING POWER FROM THE BATTERY, CAUSING PREMATURE FAILURE OF SAID BATTERY, WHICH ALSO HAPPENED TO ME AS WELL AS NO START CONDITIONS WHICH ALSO HAS HAPPENED TO ME. SO FAR NO STALL OUTS WITH THE VEHICLE MOVING. I CURRENTLY HAVE A HFL MODULE ON ORDER FROM ACURA AND WAS TOLD BECAUSE THEIR ON BACK ORDER IT COULD BE SEVERAL MONTHS BEFORE THEY GET THEIR ORDER. ALSO THEY WANT MY OLD MODULE WHICH THEY ADDED A $50.00 CORE CHARGE TO THE PRICE. THOUGH THERE MAYBE JUST A FEW OFFICIAL COMPLAINTS LISTED HERE JUST CHECK THE WEB. THERE IS OBVIOUSLY A FAULT IN THESE MODULES AND THE MANUFACTURE IS EITHER DOING REVERSE FAILURE ANALYSIS ON THE RETURNED MODULES OR WIRSE YET FIXING THE BROKEN ONES AND SENDING THEM OUT AS THE REPLACEMENTS. EITHER WAY THEY OBVIOUSLY KNOW IS WRONG WITH THESE MODULES. THIS MODULE IS NOT WHAT IS CONSIDERED A NORMAL ATTRITION PIECE LIKE TIRES, BRAKES, LIGHT BULBS , BELTS , HOSES. WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME YOU PLANNED ON REPLACING A BROKEN RADIO IN YOUR VEHICLE, YOU DON'T. I SHOULDN'T HAVE TO PLAN OR PAY TO REPLACE MY HFL MODULE, QUALITY CONTROL AND MANUFACTURE LOYALTY TO THEIR CUSTOMERS IS ABISMAL.

THE BLUETOOTH MODULE DRAINS THE BATTERY WHEN THE VEHICLE IS TURNED OFF AND I AM AFRAID THAT MY VEHICLE COULD BE TURNED OFF BY DRAINING THE BATTERY WHEN RUNNING CAUSING A SAFETY ISSUE. I HAVE REGISTERED THE CASE WITH ACURA CUSTOMER SERVER AND HAVE NOT HELPED ME WITH THE FREE REPLACEMENT. THE ACURA CASE NUMBER IS [XXX] 2009 ACURA MDX AWD VIN: 2HNYD28679H[XXX] [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TT

ON JUNE 30TH 2019 AFTER LEAVING FROM WORK I WAS ON MY WAY TO PIER 1 WHICH IS APPROXIMATELY 2 MILES AWAY. I TURNED INTO THE PARKING LOT PARKED IN FRONT OF PIER 1 AND ALL OF A SUDDEN MY CAR ACCELERATED OUT OF CONTROL. IT JUMPED THE CURB CRASHED THROUGH PIER 1 WINDOW INTO THE STORE AND DIDN'T STOP UNTIL IT HIT A WALL. AT THIS TIME I'M IN SHOCK GLASS IS EVERY WHERE AND I COULD MOVE I HEAR PEOPLE IN THE BACKGROUND TELLING ME TO GET OUT OF THE CAR BUT I WAS FROZEN FROM WHAT JUST HAPPENED. I JUST WANT TO HOLD ACURA ACCOUNTABLE BECAUSE I SEE THIS HAS HAPPENED TO SEVERAL PEOPLE

BLUETOOTH HANDFREE LINK (HFL) IN MY 2009 ACURA MDX WAS DRAINING MY BATTERY. I HAD TO CALL TOWING SERVICE A FEW TIMES TO START THE VEHICLE. WHEN I OPENED THE COMPARTMENT WHERE HANDS FREE LINK DEVICE IS LOCATED, I NOTICED THAT THE DEVICE WAS EXTREMELY HOT (FIRE HAZARD). FINALLY, IT GAVE UP AFTER A WHILE. THIS HAPPENED AFTER MY EXTENDED WARRANTY EXPIRED AT 100K MILES. MY STATE (STATE OF ILLINOIS) REQUIRES USING A HANDS FREE LINK WHILE DRIVING, SO, I FEEL ACURA SHOULD RECALL THE HFL UNIT AND REPLACE THIS FREE OF CHARGE TO COMPLY WITH THE STATE LAW. WILL APPRECIATE IF NHTSA LOOKS INTO THIS CASE AND REQUIRES ACURA/HONDA TO ISSUE AN IMMEDIATE RECALL. THIS IS A VERY COMMON ISSUE IN MANY ACURAS BASED ON MY GOOGLE SEARCH.

AFTER 4-5 YEARS OF USAGE, THE BLUETOOTH DOESN'T WORK ANY MORE. THE ACURA DEALER SAID IT COSTS MORE THAN $600 TO BE REPLACED WITH NEW ONE. I CHECKED UP THE INTERNET, AND LOTS OF ACURA MDX OWNERS HAVE ALREADY ACKNOWLEDGED THIS PROBLEM AND LOOKING FOR A SOLUTION ON THE INTERNET. EVERYONE HAS EXACTLY SAME PROBLEM AND IT EXACTLY HAPPENED 4 -5 YEARS AFTER PURCHASE.
