What owners wrote
Tl* the contact owns a 2016 acura mdx. The contact stated while driving 20 MPH, when driving over a speed bump the vehicle accelerated independently and impacted the vehicle in front. The contact stated no warning light was illuminated. Air bags did not deploy. The contact stated she was not injured. The contact stated the driver of the other vehicle sustained unknown injuries but was not aware if medical attention was required. A police report was filed.
The letters on the shifting controls are wearing off with normal use creating an unsafe condition as it is becoming unclear which shift buttons put the vehicle in park. This has occurred on both my 2016 honda vehicles. Honda has acknowledged this issue but only offers to pay one half of the cost of correcting this dangerous issue.
