DROVE THE VEHICLE (22,000 MILES) ON THE HIGHWAY THROUGH DEATH VALLEY IN SEPTEMBER WITH TEMPERATURE ABOUT 105 F. ON THE DOWNWARD SIDE OF A PASS ON HWY 395 AND WAS DRIVING ABOUT 45 MPH, CAME INTO A VIEW AREA AND USED THE BRAKES. THE VEHICLE VIOLENTLY SHOOK WITH A LOUD NOISE ENGAGED ALSO USED THE EMERGENCY BRAKE AND IT CONTINUED TO ROLL FORWARD. I DID GET IT STOPPED AND IT SAT FOR ABOUT 15 MINUTES WHILE I WAS OUT TAKING PICTURES. GOT BACK IN AND SLOWLY STARTED DOWN THE ROAD AND THERE WAS A VERY SMALL FEEL OF VIBRATION WITHIN THE NEXT 10 MINUTES AND THEN IT WAS NORMAL AGAIN. SINCE IT WASN'T AN IMMEDIATE ISSUE AFTER I GOT BACK DIDN'T IMMEDIATELY TAKE IT TO THE DEALER AS IT WASN'T BEEN USED. THE DEALER IS 115 MILES AWAY SO IT TAKES A SCHEDULE TO TURN IT IN. ON 3 DECEMBER DID TAKE IT IN AND REPORTED THE PROBLEM THEY CAME UP WITH THE PROBLEM AS BRAKE PULSATION WITH ROTORS THAT NEED TO BE RESURFACED. WHAT OCCURRED WAS MORE THAN PULSATING BRAKES SINCE IT HAS NOT HAPPENED AGAIN AND IF IT WAS JUST THAT IT SHOULD STILL STOP, AS NECESSARY.

FIRST, I HAVE HAD THE VEHICLE FOR A LITTLE OVER A YEAR. I HAVE DRIVEN TO FLORIDA AND NC WITHOUT ISSUE. TODAY WILL BE THE 4TH TIME TAKING MY CAR TO THE ACURA DEALERSHIP IN LESS THAN 3 MONTHS. TODAY THE CAR STARTED TO KICKBACK WHEN I REACH 20MPH. ALSO, AT 80MPH THE CAR IS JERKY WHEN I ACCELERATE OR DECREASE AND GO AGAIN. ALSO WHEN I RELEASE THE GAS, THE SPEED DECREASES QUICKLY AS OPPOSED TO GRADUALLY. AROUND 60MPH THE CAR TENDS TO HAVE A SLIGHT JERK WHICH IVE NOTIFIED ACURA BUT THEY SAID I NEED A WHEEL ALIGNMENT WHICH IVE DONE. THE ISSUE PRIOR WAS ALL THE LIGHTS IN THE DASH CAME ON THE THE DRIVE FUNCTION WAS ALMOST PAUSED WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION. ACURA CLAIMED THE ISSUE WAS MINOR YET I AM GOING AGAIN TODAY. PRIOR TO THAT ISSUE, SOMETHING NEAR THE TIRES WAS SCRATCHING OR SOMETHING WHICH THEY CLAIMED THE ISSUE WAS FIXED. WHAT LED ME TO THE DEALERSHIP THE FIRST TIME WAS THE VEHICLE WAS JERKY AT DIFFERENT TIMES WHILE ACCELERATING. ACURA PERFORMED A SOFTWARE UPGRADE WHICH FIXED THE ISSUE FOR A COUPLE DAYS. AT SOME POINT, THE VEHICLE NEEDS TO BE RE-ASSESSED AND POSSIBLY TOTALED OUT OR SOMETHING. I HAVE 3 KIDS AND ALWAYS ON THE RUN. I USED TO TRUST ACURA AND THE RELIABILITY BUT THE ISSUES SEEM TO GET WORSE AND WORSE.
