BLUETOOTH HANDFREE LINK (HFL) IN MY 2009 ACURA MDX WAS DRAINING MY BATTERY. I HAD TO CALL TOWING SERVICE A FEW TIMES TO START THE VEHICLE. WHEN I OPENED THE COMPARTMENT WHERE HANDS FREE LINK DEVICE IS LOCATED, I NOTICED THAT THE DEVICE WAS EXTREMELY HOT (FIRE HAZARD). FINALLY, IT GAVE UP AFTER A WHILE. THIS HAPPENED AFTER MY EXTENDED WARRANTY EXPIRED AT 100K MILES. MY STATE (STATE OF ILLINOIS) REQUIRES USING A HANDS FREE LINK WHILE DRIVING, SO, I FEEL ACURA SHOULD RECALL THE HFL UNIT AND REPLACE THIS FREE OF CHARGE TO COMPLY WITH THE STATE LAW. WILL APPRECIATE IF NHTSA LOOKS INTO THIS CASE AND REQUIRES ACURA/HONDA TO ISSUE AN IMMEDIATE RECALL. THIS IS A VERY COMMON ISSUE IN MANY ACURAS BASED ON MY GOOGLE SEARCH.

AFTER 4-5 YEARS OF USAGE, THE BLUETOOTH DOESN'T WORK ANY MORE. THE ACURA DEALER SAID IT COSTS MORE THAN $600 TO BE REPLACED WITH NEW ONE. I CHECKED UP THE INTERNET, AND LOTS OF ACURA MDX OWNERS HAVE ALREADY ACKNOWLEDGED THIS PROBLEM AND LOOKING FOR A SOLUTION ON THE INTERNET. EVERYONE HAS EXACTLY SAME PROBLEM AND IT EXACTLY HAPPENED 4 -5 YEARS AFTER PURCHASE.
