It’s a great car. We own a 2019 model and have had 0 issues. It’s big enough for our family to have comfortable road trips, fun daily driver to work with that quick turbo engine, it does good on mpg’s (we use premium 91 which we feel it helps) and for owning a base model, it comes with luxury features that other competitors do not offer unless you get an upgraded model. Although it’s not perfect All in all we are very happy with this vehicle
I have a 2019 RDX with 24,000 miles on it , it's been 5 years and the the car has never been in the shop for a repair. The quality and reliability has been excellent my wife and I are very happy with it.
@@ChesterSm-ge1hb I’m pretty sure I can buy any car I want. The problem is most of the new cars are overpriced junk I’m afraid to touch. No I’m going to buy and old truck and have it completely rebuilt from the ground up with aftermarket engines, drivetrains interior and suspension. It will be cheaper and the quality will be better ten time what I can buy new!! And did I mention cheaper to do it this way??? New car dealers are thrives and outward crooks I refuse to deal with
I have 99 problems but my rdx isn't one. My wife and I love our Acura products and Honda products including our rdx a spec and 2023 integra. Our only real issue is fuel economy especially because it's so fun and means fuel ⛽️. Love our Integra too but in different ways.
The touch pad doesn’t bother me anymore. Find it now easy to use. Still not happy with the fuel consumption - get only 17-18 with mostly city driving, and I try to drive in the most efficient way. It’s a great car and I’m happy I have it, but the miles are something that needs to be improved.
@@msgosiaand the acura mdx don't have that much horse power only 272 I'm surprised the suv is burning alot of gas it's suv's with more horse power and got better fuel economy.
I just got a 2023 tlx last night! Traded my 2020 bmw 330i. It had 80k and I was getting wary of the unforseen issues it would have. Nothing like driving a bmw but I'm in love with my tlx. Definitely going to take some getting used too. Mu h more comfortable and spacious. Better sound system, adaptive cruise, man you can't go wrong. Finally have a car I will gladly keep for years to come.
Acura and Lexus are the best they both should have a 10 year 100,000 miles warranty standard. With an optional 20 year 200,000 miles warranty for an extra fee.
I currently drive a 2012 Subaru Outback with 198,000 miles. It has been serviced by the best independent mechanic that I have ever had. I asked him point blank who makes the best engine in the world. His immediate response, Honda.My next vehicle will be an RDX.
Acura RDX users what are your thoughts on the trackpad?? ?? Seems likenit would be cumbersome. Also like your thoughts on the infotainment sysytem. Seems tiny all those buttons look too busy vs the sleek exterior of the car
The infotainment trackpad is rubbish when trying to use on bumpy roads and in heavy traffic. The CarPlay and AA integration is very poor as the Acura true touch system is not replicated and it is a swipe swipe swipe til you get the right icon to highlight and (hopefully) activate. You canuse voice commands and steering wheel for many things, but not as easy to use as regular touchscreen
I'd be in an RDX now if it wasn't for the infotainment system. Can't bring myself to trade in my Accord Sport 2.0 for a luxury car with an inferior infotainment system.
I heard there were reliability issues which I was a surprised to hear having had Acuras in the past. Has that been worked out for the more recent model years?
I’m sure there are, most of the brands using Turbo engines are going to have reliable issues. It’s simply not sustainable in the longterm. Then add the plastic parts holding it together and disaster.
Had an Acura RDX ASPEC 2020 love it and would buy it again, unfortunately it's an easy target for car thieves apparently cloning the Smart Key is child's play for them. Hence that's why I don't have my Acura anymore.
U talking about the touchpad for the infotainment? If so, that’s the safest way to manage ur infotainment having to reach a screen is way more distracting
@Eric P If I'm understanding the pad vs Lexus old pad: Acura's touch pad is 1:1. Top left is top left of screen, bottom right is bottom right etc. Where as Lexus old touchpad was a mouse that had a cursor to keep track of. Think of Acuras more like an electronic artist pad, rather than a cursor. Once you learn it, you don't have to look down or focus too much on the screen to get it to do what you want
have a 2019 rdx no panoramic roof issues, i had a 2016 lexus rx and the panoramic sunroof frame needing replacing, no brand is immune to panoramic sunroof issues
I have a '21 RDX Aspec and so far the roof has not cracked but it always makes a popping sound when pulling out of my driveway or when I go over uneven pavement.
The two biggest negatives that swayed me away from the RDX is the infotainment center and the 4 cylinder. The Lexus RX350 could come with the classic 3.5L v6 and still get the same gas mileage. Had that engine in my Camry and that thing goes!
The screen is in a location where it would be unsafe/uncomfortable to touch/use while driving. The track pad isn’t so bad after you get used to it…it was confusing for me at first but it’s easy to use for me now
I was a acura person for over 15 yrs.. now they have raised prices in the bmw, Mercedes level. Lots of problems except to be in the dealer every month!! Kia/hy.. better prices, better warranty and quality 10yrs warranty not acura/honda. .. never buy until they lower prices and get there act back to japan quality. . 2023.. do not buy !!
@@msrainlady5515I traded my RDX for a hybrid CRV. RDX is a nice vehicle but 10 speed AT is not smooth in stop n go traffic, mpg is poor and infotainment trackpad is horrible with Carplay. RDX is a fun car on open road, but not a good daily driver for me
It’s a dated mess. 🤮 No hybrid. No EV. Brutal fuel economy. Awful infotainment system. 👎🏼 Wait until 2025. We’ll see a new model, rebates and discounts. 6/10.
Jp powers the acura is at the lower bottom.. not able to beat the kia.. do not buy!! Acura is gone down hill!! You will be better to buy A Kia/hy models better warranty also.. stay away from acura..
IF you live where it snows, know this: the RDX front wiper blades CANNOT be lifted beyond a few inches. They cannot "stand" if you wish to clean your windshield for example. EDIT: you CAN lift them up, but it requires to get in the car, stop it if running, do a short version konami code and THEN you'll be able to lift them. Not great but doable.
Hello! They can but you have to put them in maintenance mode to put them to where you can lift them up. I had to figure that out the hard way with my RDX.
