2003 Acura MDX review from North America
"Company does not stand behind their product"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I have very low mileage on my car (37,000 miles in 5 years), but I have to completely replace my engine now.
Head gasket blew at 37,000 miles.
General comments?
Comfortable seats, easy to get in and out of.
Sub par cd player, and you cannot put an aftermarket cd player in to get better. You can't play burned disks in the cd player without messing it up, and you may have to replace the whole stereo if you do (as I had to)
Acura has not stood behind their vehicle. The dealer lied to us, and Acura corporate customer service has not made things right. I am very disappointed in Acura, since a major reason for purchasing this vehicle was the excellent reliability and customer service that Acura is SUPPOSED TO provide (but didn't here)
