2024 ACURA ZDX Complaints

Upon pressing the on button the car would not go into drive or neutral from park. I noticed the red car light with an exclamation point staying on. After turning the car off/on it cleared and I was able to drive.

I am reporting a safety defect in my 2024 Acura ZDX, which poses a serious risk. The vehicle, purchased on 11/15/2023, has been in the shop for 35 days and has only 1,300 miles. It experienced recurring electrical failures, including blown fuses, door chimes, and ambient light and window malfunctions. After several weeks of diagnosis, the dealer discovered that a wiring bundle running from the engine compartment to the cabin, routed behind the steering column, was shorting out. The steering column assembly has a bolt that was rubbing against this wiring bundle, wearing away the insulation and causing several wires to cross and short. This short circuit was the cause of the blown fuses and other electrical issues. The dealer indicated that repairing the damaged wiring bundle would require extensive disassembly of the vehicle, suggesting this is a manufacturing defect. My concern is that, had this short circuit occurred while driving at high speeds, it could have led to a catastrophic failure, such as an electrical fire or loss of vehicle control. I have requested a Lemon Law buy-back, as the car has been in the shop for over 30 days and is still under warranty. Acura has acknowledged the request, and I am awaiting further action. Given the serious safety risk, I urge the NHTSA to investigate this defect and consider whether it affects other vehicles of the same make/model.

The contact owns a 2024 Acura ZDX. The contact stated after his wife had pulled out of the driveway and depressed the brake pedal, the messages "Complete Outer Brake Failure", "Top Speed 43 MPH" and "Stabili-trak Failure" were displayed. Additionally, several unknown warning lights were illuminated. The driver shifted into drive(D) to return into the driveway. The driver depressed the brake pedal, but the vehicle failed to respond. The contact stated that his son who was a passenger was in the vehicle at the time of the failure. The driver shifted to park(P), and the vehicle stopped abruptly. The contact's wife informed the contact of the failure. The contact then test-drove the vehicle and was able to replicate the failure. The contact stated that the warning messages and warning lights were no longer illuminated when the tow truck service arrived to the residence an hour later; however, the braking failure persisted. The vehicle was towed to the dealer, where the failure could not be replicated, and the cause of the failure could not be determined. The manufacturer was notified of the failure, and a case was opened. The manufacturer assigned an emergency technician to diagnose the vehicle. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The failure mileage was 390.

At 4100 miles our ZDX started showing the Service Brake Assist system warning, the auto-hold unavailable warning, and the one pedal driving unavailable warning. Took the vehicle to the dealership. Got the car back in 15 days and the problem persists. Dealership says no code was stored, yet the vehicle constantly clicks when the brake pedal is depressed. It also has a jerking sensation when coming to a stop. I'm concerned that there is a braking issue, so I avoid having my family use this vehicle.

I purchased the 2024 Acura ZDX, an EV SUV, three months ago with approximately 2000 miles. Both the front and entertainment displays (monitors) have ceased to function. Unfortunately, the user menu does not provide any guidance on repairing or resetting. I still could drive to my dealer to have it repaired with a black screen, which poses a safety concern. The ZDX was manufactured by GM under the GM platform. I conducted some research and found that this is not uncommon for all GM platform EVs, including Honda and Acura. I urge you to conduct further investigation. [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
