We've owned several Acura's over the past 13 years, this is the first SUV. The past has proven their reliability as long as you maintain them. I mean the basic prescribed routine care every 5,000 miles. I've driven many different American made vehicles supplied by my Company over the span of the last 35 years and none can compare with how Acura's hold up or perform, even with the same routine care and still offer the resale value that they do. full 2012 Acura MDX review |

i have owned several acura passenger vehicles and the reliability is unbeatable in my opinion. as it turned out i did have some front end thunks in my MDX. at no time did the dealer ever admit defeat (they all do that) and always made me feel welcome. full 2007 Acura MDX review |

The sort of quality you'd traditionally expect from a Honda Motor Company product simply wasn't there. The audio controls were flaky from the beginning; changing the track might increase the volume. Lowering the volume might lower the volume or might raise it. Oil consumption started to become a concern. Squeaks and rattles galore. The hood opening sensor failed one night, setting off the car alarm every 20 minutes. full 2012 Acura MDX review |

This SUV is a dog! Engine mounts, transmission, AC, alternator, cooling fan have all failed catastrophically. I will not buy an Acura again full 2003 Acura MDX review |
