2006 Acura MDX Complaints

AS I WAS DRIVING IN A PARKING LOT, I WENT TO APPLY MY BRAKES AS I AM TURNING MY CAR. THE BRAKES FELT HARD ALL OF A SUDDEN EVEN THOUGH I BARELY APPLIED PRESSURE. THE BREAK PETAL HAD A GRINDING SOUND AND APPLIED EXTREME PRESSURE TO BREAK MY CAR BY ITSELF. IT FELT AS IF MY CAR WAS BEING THROWN FROM SIDE TO SIDE. THIS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES IN PARKING LOTS. THIS HAS ALSO HAPPENED ABOUT 3 TIMES ON THE HIGHWAY. WHILE DRIVING AND GOING DOWN A SMALL HILL ON THE HIGHWAY I BARELY APPLIED THE BREAK BUT THE CAR BREAK FELT HARD AND WEIRD AS I BARELY PRESSED IT. IT FELT AND SOUNDED LIKE A GRINDING LOUD NOISE AND CAUSE MY CAR TO PULL VERY HARD TO THE RIGHT AS IF IT WAS GOING TO THROW ME OFF THE HIGHWAY. THANKFULLY EACH OF THOSE FEW TIMES I WAS DRIVING AROUND 30 MPH. EACH OCCASION THE VSA LIGHT CAME ON AND/OR STARTED BLINKING.

THE AIR BAG DEPLOYED, SMOKE CAME OUT & THE ALARM WENT OFF UNTIL A PASSERBY DISCONNECTED THE BATTERY. I COULDN'T STAND UP FOR A FEW MINUTES. MY INSURANCE CO. DECIDED IT WAS TOTALLED & HAD IT TOWED TO OUR HOUSE INSTEAD OF A BODY SHOP, THEN ONLY GAVE ME ITS BOOK VALUE. I STILL HAVE MANY BRUISES ALL OVER MY BODY AND MY NOSE BLED FOR A WHILE AND WAS SWOLLEN FOR A WEEK. THE SEAT BELT CUT INTO MY NECK AND ITS IMPACT LEFT SEVERE BRUISES ON MY CHEST. THE IMPACT MADE BOTH MY REPLACED KNEES BRUISE AND HURT. I HAD LOWER BACK FOR MANY DAYS. POHANKA ACURA DEALERSHIP TOLD ME THIS IS AN ACURA COMPANY ISSUE. GOOGLE DIDN'T SHOW ANY RECALLS ON ACURA MDX ACCELERATORS. BUT, MANY PEOPLE HAVE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM I HAD WITH THEIR MDX. WHILE BRAKING, THE CAR GOES FASTER INSTEAD. ON 3/11, AND AFTER MANY LEFT MESSAGES TO ACUR...
