    Bought a brand new ADX that had all kinds of dings & scuffs. It also had gaps on the bumper. This was sold as brand new. I worked with Acura in the San Fernando Valley for 15 years and knew this kind of damage on a brand new car never happen. I spoke with Bruce, sales manager, and Dennis, GM. Both very unreasonable & didn’t care to listen. I will take this up with my lawyer. I very strongly not recommend this dealership. Just hung up with the very rude/unreasonable GM there! Good luck with doing shady business there. The next communication will be from my lawyer to Honda Finance. Thanks.

    I own a 2019 Acura Tlx. The car was terrific but lately the car random shows a mute on the screen, takes over my radio and hands free and starts telling me this feature requires an active subscription to Acura link. Read owners manual or contact Acura. Sometimes it dials Acura. I took it to DCH Acura Montclair who told me to contact Acura link. I tried twice and both times was told they aren't mechanics and to contact the dealer. No one wants to help and it is a distraction and dangerous. I have managed to take some videos but no one seems interested. At wits end. This is my 4th and last Acura.

      I am filing a formal consumer complaint regarding an ongoing and unresolved failure of the remote start and AcuraLink connected services on my 2021 Acura RDX, purchased from Bloomington Acura on March 22, 2024. At the time of purchase, I was informed that the vehicle included remote start and connected AcuraLink features. These features functioned during the complimentary three-month trial period. However, once the trial ended, the remote features ceased functioning and have not worked since. Despite repeated service visits and extensive communication with both the dealership and the manufacturer, the issue remains unresolved nearly two years later.

      Dealership Involved

      Bloomington Acura
      7801 Lyndale Ave. S
      Bloomington, MN 55420

      (952) 881-6200

      Manufacturer Involved

      American Honda Motor Co., Inc. (Acura Division)
      Acura Client Relations / AcuraLink
      Case #: **

      (888) 528-7876

      Service History and Repair Attempts. I have brought the vehicle to Bloomington Acura on the following dates regarding this issue:
      May 13, 2024
      November 14, 2024
      January 6, 2025
      December 5, 2025

      December 15, 2025

      There may be additional visits not currently documented. Each visit required approximately 150 miles of travel each way, totaling at least 1,800 additional miles placed on the vehicle. I estimate approximately $300 in fuel costs, in addition to significant lost work time. Although the service department has been professional, the issue remains unresolved.

      Manufacturer Response Pattern. I have contacted AcuraLink/American Honda Motor Co., Inc. on numerous occasions — at least 30 documented email communications. Each time, I have received substantially the same response: “Currently, we are still reviewing your AcuraLink concern with our internal team. We will follow up when a fix is applied or an update becomes available.” No corrective action has been implemented, and no timeline has been provided.

      Legal Concerns. I believe the circumstances raise concerns under the Minnesota Prevention of Consumer Fraud Act (Minn. Stat. § 325F.69), which prohibits misrepresentation, false promises, misleading statements, or deceptive practices in connection with the sale of merchandise. The vehicle was sold with remote start and connected AcuraLink services represented as functional features. The subsequent loss of those features, combined with repeated unsuccessful repair attempts and the absence of a meaningful resolution, may constitute a misrepresentation or deceptive practice under Minnesota law. Additionally, the repeated failure to repair or restore represented functionality may implicate Minnesota warranty and consumer protection statutes.

      I would suggest that anyone that is thinking of purchasing an Acura run from this brand. I have spent 38 years in consumer products in high level sales and consulting for major Fortune 500 brands. From a consumer point of view we have owned 5 Acura’s between my wife and my own purchases. My son has owned two. Now imagine this process with this brand. We professionally contacted Acura on 2/12/26 with a request to seek out a part for my son’s car. I was asked to help my son because he is traveling and I am retired. His wife Acura was hit by a drunk driver who left the scene of the accident while it was parked. Fully documented by law enforcement.

      Fast forward our bodyshop indicated that the rear quarter panel was out of stock and that we needed to call Acura Customer service to help expedite the matter. We called on 2/12 and followed the procedure, communicated the issues along with the fact that my daughter in law is pregnant and has no means of transportation when my son is traveling, we are 90 mins away in the event of an emergency. The Acura policy stated a response in 24 to 48 hours of the report. After 72 hours I called and no response or progress. So I waited 6 days and the CS person at Acura said “sorry your case has not been assigned to anyone”. Wow great customer service from “precision crafted performance” lol, in what area would you say this is precision crafted at anything? 38 years in CPG and I have never seen such a failed business model in any brand let alone a so called luxury brand and on a repeat customer.

      So today I am writing this expecting nothing, because as of today 2/24 I have had no response from Acura. So the only please I can receive is now take this to every possible social media outlet and to influencers that want to repost along with paid trade press. I am beyond frustrated over the lack of CS from Acura and have never been this disappointed in a brand that I use to have so much trust in. Trust me when I tell you, this review will not create any action, so my best efforts are to spread the word in the CPG community and those that provide company cars, car allowances and rental contacts with this brand.

      I have had a good experience with Acura till today. We own a 2019 Acura TLX and it has run well, except for battery issues on 3 occasions. Our first battery issue was in late Dec 2022, at which time it was determined that our battery was faulty at three years of age, and also thankfully was within the warranty period. The local Roswell, GA Acura dealer, as well as a 2nd local Acura dealer (Marietta, GA), told me that a warranty battery that requires replacement within the warranty period HAS NO WARRANTY. Have you ever heard of such?

      Our local mechanic nearby advised me to call Acura corporate to verify what the 2 Atlanta local dealers had told me (my present replacement battery from Dec of 2022 included no warranty at all), and Acura corporate verified this policy was true. My husband and I feel that our 3 year old Acura TLX battery should have been replaced by Acura (or AT LEAST prorated); however we, at our full expense, paid from our own pockets $215 for our new battery purchased today through our local mechanic.

      I am sharing this experience so other consumers understand what they may face when dealing with Acura and American Honda Motor Co. under California Lemon Law. My daughter and I leased a 2024 Acura RDX from Acura of Oakland. On the day of purchase, the dealer already had issues pairing my phone to the vehicle, and we were required to leave the car for service. While the phone was eventually paired, the vehicle was not properly placed into service or inspected for the underlying problem.

      After my daughter drove the car home, it became clear the vehicle had serious electrical and infotainment defects. The same issue has led to multiple repair attempts and 37 total days out of service. The vehicle has been serviced at Acura of Pleasanton. During our most recent visit, we showed the service manager videos clearly showing the infotainment system malfunctioning. Despite this evidence, we were told the car could not be checked into service and that we should bring it back when the problem occurs. The issue is intermittent, making that response impractical. This was especially concerning because the vehicle is still under factory warranty with approximately 15,000 miles, yet service was refused.

      Because the problem continued, I hired an attorney and filed a Lemon Law lawsuit. After an attorney was involved, American Honda Motor Co. asked that the lawsuit be withdrawn so the matter could be handled directly. Trusting that this would lead to a fair outcome, I withdrew the lawsuit. Afterward, AHM made an offer that was far below what my attorney said the case would have settled for and far below what California Lemon Law is intended to provide. I am now forced to pursue small claims action.

      The ongoing electrical failures include infotainment crashes, flashing screens, sensor issues, and phone connectivity failures. These are not minor inconveniences and raise serious safety concerns, especially because my daughter drives the vehicle. My advice to anyone dealing with Acura or Honda Lemon Law claims: Do not withdraw your lawsuit and do not rely on AHM to make a fair offer once legal pressure is removed.

      I purchased an Acura and had the bank pay it off through my notary when I refinanced my home. About a month later, I received a call from them saying that a payment of $98 was missed due to interest charged by the time the cheque reached them so I paid them the amount requested. I received a letter from them saying my account was up to date and the car was paid off. After three months I get another call and a registered letter saying I now owe $283 and that they are putting me in collection if I don't pay it in 10 days. I have a perfect credit rating and they are threatening to blemish it if I don't pay up. So even if I do pay that money to get them off my back, there is nothing stopping them to hitting me up for more money as they have already done that twice. I am very frustrated and have no confidence in their finance department.

      I loved my 2013 Acura Rdx until my headlights went out a couple years ago. I've spent thousands of dollars trying to repair them with no luck. Unfortunately we cannot afford the $3000 quote we received from Acura in Huntsville Alabama. We've researched and found there is a known issue with the headlights that Acura is aware of however they will not recall it due to THEM feeling it's not a safety concern.

      Last night around 930 pm I was driving and I began to smell something burning. We immediately pulled over and popped the hood to find the passenger headlight had smoke coming from it and for the 2nd time now, the pigtail was MELTED and the bulb was not functioning. I've even purchase 2 brand new headlight assemblies and had those professionals placed prior to this issue. I am officially fed up with my Acura and even more disappointed in the lack of recall notice being put out by Acura! See photo of smoke as it would not allow me to share the video.

      I have 2022 Acura MDX and a few days ago my AC compressor broke - no AC in my car. I called Acura service and apparently, this compressor is backordered and there's no way to fix my car in the near 1-2 months! And it's more than 100 degrees outside... So I went to Midas and they were able to replace the compressor. I called Acura headquarters, but boy, are they useless... I explained to the representative that I had no choice but to go to the third-party shop to get it fixed because no Acura in the area has this part. It looked like the representative couldn't care less about my explanation and the only goal she had is to close my case as soon as possible. I've been a loyal customer for many years, but if that's the way they treat their customers... this Acura will be my last one because of the customer service.
