2002 Acura MDX consumer reviews

I own a 2002 Acura MDX Touring SUV which I had purchased brand new. It now has 296,000 miles. The only major repair was a transmission overhaul at about 235,000 miles. I gave the car to my son who is only 4 years older than the vehicle. He uses the vehicle for short distance (under 30 miles of driving). It has been rear ended four times and side swept once. No one in the vehicle was injured. It is still giving 18 mpg on 89 octane gas, just like it did when it was new. Never even changed the spark plugs! I change oil (synthetic) every 10,000 miles. Never let me down!

I am the second owner of a 2002 Acura MDX I had the usual situation is when you buy a used car you get new brakes you change the fluids you change the belts you get a tuneup and you change the oil I found this car very reliable I’ve only had a few problems it is definitely a highway car not a city car when you’re on the highway it flies the miles go very quickly it’s beautiful for that in the city. It’s a real dog but I still love it. I’ve had the car now for five years I put about 50,000 miles on it we’re nearing 185,000 miles , I replace the tires only once because of dry rot recently. My catalytic converter and muffler system were stolen in a very well lit middle-class neighborhood in New York City. That was a major expense outside of that gas. As you know, it’s almost $4/ gallon so you have no alternative what to buy , This car is beautiful just takes a person to maintain it and watch out for it. Make sure you get cleaned and polished twice a year or so and do the oil change every 4000 miles.

Mine was used when I got it it looked good drove good but it had a lot of problems, it's got electrical problem right now it's had an electrical problem since I got it I think it's in the navigation system it's a great car really but I've had nothing but problems with it I don't know if it's just mine or what but that's pretty much how I see it I'm taking it in for a recall to Acura for airbags have got lots of lights on in the dash maintenance needed I can't afford to take it in so maybe they'll tell me what I need to do to it who knows maybe I'll get lucky and It will turn out to be a good car

Cannot believe it is so smooth a ride with such power and room Nothing like other SUVs and top of the line reliability Third row seating, all leather interior, sunroof, roof rack, new tires, steppe bars, Bose stereo and DVD player make it real luxury

This car has let me down in every way imaginable. At 85000 mi. almost every component on the suspension has been replaced. At 109000 mi. the transmission went out. and the warranty won't cover it. It's a comfortable car but that's about it.

AWD, decent MPG ranging from 19-24, nice ground clearance and great for road trips or exploring the local area. Safety and reliable three row SUV that does NOT look like a minivan. I think it looks nicer than even some of the newer models.

Reliable withstands car crashes parts are expensive gas mileage is fair but she flies the highways very comfortable high up car is solid Always reliable

No mechanical issues. Nice ride. 17 years old. Use it to pull a small trailer camping and as a 2nd vehicle. AWD has no trouble in snow, mud, sand, wet grass.

This car met all my need for last 1 year. It has plenty of legroom front and back. It can carry plenty of cargo also. Good car for a family of 5/6.

Perfect size for road trips and camping. Super luxurious, comfortable and easy to drive. Gas mileage is decent considering the age and overall weight of the vehicle. On average I get 11L/100km. Tons of convenient features ahead of its time such as heated seats, 4wd lock and high quality Bose speakers. Although the MDX is known for developing transmission issues, I believe its a great SUV more than capable of towing a boat or road tripping across the country.
