2020 Acura Rdx

The sunroof/moonroof was closed and it exploded/shattered going down a major interstate highway doing 65mph. It sounded like a bomb or someone shot a gun at me. Glass is everywhere and its not cleaned up. Nothing was thrown at vehicle. There are no recalls on this vehicle. No warning lights or messages when it happened. I was very lucky I didn't receive injuries from the falling glass/getting cut. After it happened I closed the visor of the moonroof due to the hole. Now its seems visor is damaged too. I have a call into my dealership--waiting to hear back. Vehicle is sitting in my garage. Its available for inspection. I don't want to drive it. There are more photos than what is uploaded.

While driving on I-95 north, the check engine light began flashing on and off. We had been driving in a thunderstorm for approximately 100 miles, when it began flashing. Then suddenly the car began slowing down. There was no response to repeatedly stepping on the gas pedal. As the car slowed down I was able to get over to the shoulder, and put the car in park. Again trying to get a response by stepping on the gas pedal, but there was no response. I shut the engine off, then restarted the car. The car ran fine, after I restarted it. I continued my drive from Florence SC to NY, and then returned from NY to Florida without any further incident.

Upon rapid acceleration, pushing the gas pedal down, the engine light started blinking and the car went into limp mode losing all power. This was a serious concern because we had just got off the interstate and if we had been full speed attempting to pass a vehicle, we could have been in a serious accident due to failure of power.

Under heavy acceleration, the vehicle began "bucking" and then lost all power. The check-engine light began flashing. The engine was still running but did not provide power. I Had to pull off the road, shut the engine off and then restart to clear the problem. This has happened twice in two days. The Acura dealer says it is an issue with moisture entering the turbo-charger but did not have any suggestions to correct or prevent this from happening again.

There is an issue with the windshield. When driving into direct sun the total windshield appears to be pitted and visibility is hampered. I reported this to Southern Motors in Savannah and the service manager photographed the windshield and said he would follow up. I went back about a week later and was told that Acura had him photograph all RDX's on the lot. All of them had a similar issue, including his personal vehicle. I called Acura and they did not appear to be concerned. It appears as the issue is with the material sandwiched between glass layers that is defective (my opinion). On a recent road trip I found it extremely difficult focusing on the road due to the reflections off of the little "pits" all throughout the windshield. I believe combined with normal road hazards (bugs) could cause temporary loss of visibility and potential accidents at highway speeds. I feel that Acura needs to recall and repair these windshields.

It was raining and I was accelerating hard to pass a slow vehicle when the engine malfunction light started blinking and I lost power and could no longer accelerate. I had to pull over into an empty driveway. Had I not been able to pull over into a driveway, I would have been stuck on a 2 lane road with a 55 mph speed limit and no way to get the car completely off the road, endangering myself, any passengers, and others traveling the road. The car has only 28,000 miles on it and is at the dealership right now being inspected. The only warning light turned on when the problem started, blinked a few times, and then turned itself off, but I still had no acceleration and could not get the car above 10 mph.

Got into the RDX, closed the driver door and rear glass shattered. Called Dealership and spoke with salesman and service manager and both said they never heard of this before. Reading online this has happened several times. Acura in Canada has acknowledged that this is a defect and repairs are done under warranty. What can be done in USA?

Hi, I have a 2020 Acura RDX, and it haves a popping and cracking sound on the speaker even wend the radio is of.

The contact owns a 2020 Acura RDX. The contact stated while driving at 70 MPH in the rain, the vehicle upshifted and downshifted independently. The check engine warning illuminated. The vehicle continued to downshift. The accelerator pedal was depressed however, the vehicle failed to respond, and the vehicle continued to decelerate. The contact veered to the side of the roadway and parked the vehicle. The contact then turned off the vehicle for 30 seconds. The contact stated that as he restarted the vehicle, the check engine warning light was no longer illuminated. The vehicle then operated as needed while driving. The dealer was notified of the failure and an appointment was scheduled. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 36,000.

The vehicle is a 2020 Acura RDX Advance, with 12,600 miles and was purchased new 17 months previously. On March 4, 2022 the MOONROOF EXPLODED. While driving I heard a "pop" from above my head. Fortunately the inner roof cover was closed such that the shattered glass did not enter the cabin - had the inner roof been open driver and passengers would have been endangered due to the broken glass. Vehicle was taken immediately to the Acura dealer for inspection. They took pictures (not available to me) and submitted to Acura corporate. After waiting for over a week the dealer finally contacted me stating the moonroof would not be covered under warranty. I submitted claim to my insurance and the roof has been repaired. The moonroof explosion happened suddenly and unexpectedly, no object hit the roof.
