What owners wrote

Squeaking and shaking brakes since car was purchased. Has been to dealer 3 times. Acura says this is a known issue on all 2019 rdxs yet has not provided a fix. This is unsafe and needs recalled

April 2019

From march 2019 to present: when driving at speeds above 55MPH, the vehicle slams on it's brakes automatically and comes to a complete stop. I then have to put the rdx in park, then back into drive before I can accelerate again. This happens when no other cars are around the front of the vehicle. This has happened a total of 10 times. A couple of the times it has happened, other cars have had to swerve around me to miss rear ending me. There is no warning lights or noises before the car slams on the brakes.

Reported at 12,000 miles, July 2019
