What owners wrote
Car stalled while driving. Towed it to the dealer the dealer repaired the instrument panel following is the statement from dealer 'found instrument internal defective causing vehicle to stall remove and replace gauge recheck operation'.
Bluetooth stopped working and a few weeks later, my car wouldn't start. I replaced the battery and a few days later the car stalled on me as I was pulling out of my spot!!!!! I went to the acura dealer and explained to the guy that my battery kept draining. He asked me if my bluetooth stopped working, I was shocked because I hadn't mentioned any issues with my bluetooth but I let him know that in fact, the bluetooth had stopped. The rep said it's a common problem in my vehicle.
