Excellent car that I will miss

After 19 years, and 190k miles this car never needed a tow! It's comfortable, easy, and simple. All our friends who then got Fords, GMs, a Subarus crossover in the same price range had to sell their car 8 to 12 years ago because of reliability issues... sometime for less that than what you could find one 19 yr MDX today. Of course, in 2020 the car does not look like a modern car, but its look is simple enough, and had been copied enough that the car will continue to age well. Maintenance is not cheap when performed by Acura, but the local one at least stood by their work and their car. When the tranny failed after 8 years, they replace it at no cost to us. My kids grew up with this car, and the interior barely shows wear and tear... Now the car has been totaled, I am sad to let it go....

I’m shocked

This car met all my needs; its spacious has three rows, AC runs cool, good on gas and it’s drives lovely... Way better than newer model cars I’ve been in and its more than what I expected for an older model car.

Most reliable and comfortable car I've owned

This car is amazing. Great legroom, third row seating option, comfort and style is top of class, incredibly reliable and comfortable. Audio is great quality, aux cord via cassette player, can charge phones, rear mirrors tilt down to assist with reversing, climate control for rear seats, front seats have seat heaters.

decent car,better than a mercedes

the seats are a somewhat uncomfortable and theres too many blind spots ,other than that i cant complain. im 6 ft 2 and im a bit cramped in the vehicle. always driven a full size van but you cant find them anymore so i settled for an suv [a mini van] doesn t look like fun to work on but so far i havnt done anything to it except change the oil. metal is a little thin and starting to get some rust.ill drive the car till it breaks.

BEST CAR I'VE EVER OWNED

I bought my MDX used with 70K miles on it. I now have 210K miles! The only problem I ever had was a water pump issue and it was covered under warranty. I have been very diligent with the maintenance; oil changes, wear and tear parts replaced, etc. This car is roomy buy very nimble to drive. I will be sad when it stops running. (whenever that will be ).
