All of a sudden after starting my car up in the morning my adapative damper system warning light came on. I called the Acura dealer and they didn't know what I was talking about. I had to explain to the service representative who should know that Acura advance model has an electronic shock system that adjusts shocks for certain type of driving. I personally leave mine on comfort but now it's stuck in sports mode. I drove 4 hours to take it to the dealer and it took them literally 5 hours to diagnose that the wiring harness is bad. They said they will have to literally take apart all the internal console, seats, carpets, etc to remove that item and replace it. Now it's on back order for a month. The adviser said I can drive it without any issues for now but they weren't sure. So when I left the dealer we had a huge winter storm and my vehicle couldn't automatically engage the all wheel or snow driving options because the adaptive damper system is all interlinked to the issue with the wiring harness. Normally it would have take me 4 hours to get home instead it became an 8 hr ordeal. My vehicle was sliding side to side and slipping. I had a all wheel drive vehicle that could not engage the all wheel system and couldn't use the snow driving options. Instead was stuck in the sports mode..... a vehicle that is not even 1 years old having some major issues like this does not seem normal.

While the vehicle is in motion the suspension / front dampers are making clunking and popping noises every time you go over a bumps, potholes or turn on unleveled road. The suspension parts were replaced by the dealership and the noise has gotten more prominent.

RDX

On October 30, 2020 I leased a 2020 Acura Rdx (AWD tech) from springfield Acura, 243 route 22 E, springfield, NJ 07081. On November 11, 2019, I bought the car back to springfield Acura. I was hearing a scraping, crunching noise from under the front of the car when going over bumps. The technician diagnosed and discovered the noise was coming from the front suspension and made necessary repairs (a copy of service report is attached). A few days later the noise returned and again I bought the car to springfield Acura on January 6, 2020. According to the service report (a copy of which is attached):... 'there is no fix for the current issue...'. as of this date, the car still is making the same scraping, crunching noise. I purposely leased a new vehicle in order to avoid spending time and money on repairs. This vehicle is brand new and has been served twice and still not fixed. Taking time to bring the car back to the dealership has caused undue hardship the car I leased from springfield Acura has a known defect and was not disclosed to me at the time of my lease of the vehicle. Springfield Acura should be obligated to replace my current vehicle with another new 2020 Acura Rdx (AWD tech) after it has been deemed that the same problem does not exist.
