2018 Acura Rdx

On [XXX] while traveling around 70 mph on [XXX] approximately 30 miles south of Florence, SC, I heard vehicle glass explode. The loud pop nearly caused my wife, driving at the time, to veer violently to the left lane. I requested her to pull over slowly so I could determine what happened. I looked around the entire vehicle and finally found the sunroof glass had imploded. There were no vehicles around us at the time of the implosion and we didn't see or hear any objects hit the vehicle (i.e. rock). Also, I looked over the entire vehicle to see if a rock impact or something had hit the car, but couldn't find any evidence of an impact by an object. This is a severe defect and should be considered for safety recall. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

Honda Motor Co. is recalling certain 2017-2020 model year Acura vehicles. The fuel pump impeller was improperly moulded, resulting in low density impellers. Over time, the low-density impeller can deform and interfere with the fuel pump body, rendering the fuel pump inoperative. If the fuel pump is inoperative, the engine may not start or can stall while driving, increasing the risk of a crash or injury. NHTSA #23V-858. Recall #KGD Acura fuel pump motor. Recall expansion stop sale. STATUS: Remedy not yet avaiable. This information was on the CARFAX Vehicle History Report

Not sure where to direct this, so please redirect if this is the wrong inbox.  I recently went into a local service appointment to have our passenger seat belt buckle replaced at Acura Concord.  We had noticed that the belt was not seating securely in the buckle, and could be removed with minimal-to-moderate effort (would guess 15-30 lbs of force) - certainly not safe in a collision.  It started to stick intermittently, and slowly got worse over time until it got to a point that it was clearly unsafe. We were concerned and I proactively paid to have it replaced.  The service technicians suspected that something might have entered the belt and was preventing the mechanism of working correctly.  However, upon replacing the buckle, the service technician reported that the belt buckle had no foreign objects inside it, and appears to have been mechanically failing. This was alarming, and I quickly searched online to find the current seatbelt recall.  However, my vehicle is not a part of that, but maybe should be given the technician's findings.  The technician's report can be found through Acura of Concord, and has a reference number of RO#203423 / Tag# 172B. I asked the technician for the faulty belt and currently have it in my possession (pictures of it sticking are attached, this is the first and only time I've touched it since the appointment).   Please let us know, we'd like to make sure these vehicles are as safe as they can be for all purchasers.  Appreciate your time and attention here. 

Vehicle began hesitating when starting, but not all of the time. One day after refueling it would not start. Lights on the dashboard flashed and flickered and the keyless start button made a clicking sound, but the vehicle would not start. Vehicle was towed to the nearest mechanic. The next morning the mechanic started the vehicle and found nothing wrong. Mechanic kept the vehicle for a couple days and the problem reoccurred. Vehicle will not start. Computer diagnostics shows the 2018 Acura RDX Control Unit part number 38320-TX4-A31 is faulty. This part is backordered and likely will not be available in the near future. The intermittent starting failure poses a safety risk and could leave a driver stranded.
