2005 Acura MDX Complaints

DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEED 60MPH RIGHT SIDE CURTAIN AIRBAG,RIGHT FRONT SEAT AIRBAG AND RIGHT SIDE FRONT SEAT BELT PRE TENSIONER DEPLOYED. WHEN THE AIR BAG DEPLOYED A PIECE OF THE RIGHT SIDE GRAB BAR HIT THE DRIVER IN THE FACE. THE FRONT PASSENGER HAD ABRASION ON HER FACE FROM THE AIRBAG HITTING HER. ON STAR CALLED RIGHT AWAY AND WE GAVE THEM INFO AND AFTER THEY WERE SURE WE WERE OK HUNG UP.WE TOOK THE VEHICLE TO SMITHTOWN ACURA SCANNED FOR CODES AND FOUND CODE F4-11. ACURA INFORMED ME THAT A REP FROM ACURA WOULD INSPECT THE VEHICLE. AFTER THE REP INSPECTED THE VEHICLE THEY SAID THAT THEY FOUND NO MANUFACTURER DEFECTS BUT THEY COULD NOT SAY WHY THE AIRBAG DEPLOYED. AFTER A FEW WEEKS GOING BACK AND FORTH WITH CLIENT REALIONS FOR ACURA THEY SAID THERE LEGAL TEAM SAID THEY FIND NO MANUFACTURER DEFECTS AND TO CALL MY INSURANCE COMPANY.THANKS FOR TAKING A LOOK AT THIS.

GOING 65 MILES AN HOUR ON THE HIGHWAY VEHICLE BRAKES SUDDENLY VSA LIGHT COMES ON ALMOST THREW ME IN THE DITCH UNDER SNOWY CONDITIONS AIRBAG LIGHT ALSO CAME ON

MY 2005 ACURA MDX HAS BEEN DRIVING GREAT SINCE WE PURCHASED IT OVER A YEAR AGO. RECENTLY THE VSA LIGHT CAME ON WHILE DRIVING AROUND TOWN AND THE VEHICLE STOPPED VERY ABRUPTLY WHEN LIGHTLY APPLYING THE BRAKES. THE LIGHT GOES AWAY AND APPEARS TO RESET WHEN YOU TURN OFF THE VEHICLE. NOW EVERY TIME THAT THE VEHICLE IS DRIVEN I HAVE TO DRIVE EXTRA CAREFUL BECAUSE I NEVER KNOW WHEN THE VSA LIGHT WILL COME ON AGAIN CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO COME TO AN ABRUPT STOP. I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE THIS CAR ON THE FREEWAY BECAUSE DRIVING AT HIGH SPEEDS OF THE LIGHT WERE TO COME ON AND THE WHEELS WERE TO LOCK UP LIKE THEY HAVE BEEN WOULD BE EXTREMELY DANGEROUS BECAUSE IT WOULD BE DIFFICULT TO CONTROL THE VEHICLE SKIDDING AT FREEWAY SPEEDS.
