Acura MDX for Sale in Hartford, CT

We have purchased Honda vehicles for years and stepped up to the Acura. We compared to Mercedes, Audi and other high end cars. Standard features were typically add on at the other manufacturers that raised the price. Reliability of the MDX is legendary.

it met all of my expectations and i honestly love the ride, it was clean and kept well maintained by the previous owner the color was nice like i never been so happy to be driving, and isnt that the most important. im going to have this car for 5 years financed so i made sure i fell in love with it.

Have had to have it towed 3 times to dealer due to transmission problems. 2nd tow had new transmission put in with less than 5,000 miles on it. Transmission warning light came on again for a 3rd time and had to have it towed. Now waiting, while driving a rental, to see what Acura company is going to do about it. Very sad that this could happen with a new car. Wife likes the car but has fears when driving it that it’ll break down. The car has nice features but just isn’t very safe when transmission warning lights come on and tell you to pull over immediately and don’t drive it. Especially if it happens in a dark seedy area which is exactly what happened to my wife the 1st time.

I was specifically looking at the 2016 model because of the features it offered. The Volvo dealership gave me an opportunity to make my dream come true. In fact, I had so much confidence in them after my initial visit, that I came down to Florida from Wisconsin to purchase the car.

The current 2018 MDX is a very good and popular crossover. And in typical Acura form... they've managed to produce a vehicle that has versatility and value. One that has three rows for expanded carpooling, but is a bit smaller than many competitors; one that has a bevy of tech and safety features; and one that is incredibly smooth. For me, a single guy about to turn 30, I made the switch from the TLX sedan to this over 4,000-pound beast for a few reasons (none of which include needing room for 7 haha). But in making that switch, I knew things were going to feel different in terms of driving dynamics. And overall though, I can say it's been fairly seamless and that the MDX was a very familiar feel... highly typical when sticking with the same brand. And while on occasion it feels a tad big (like when parallel parking or weaving through the tight side-streets of a southern New England milltown), overall, I can easily say it drives smaller than it is... which is definitely a plus. Having a wider, more athletic stance its sister Honda Pilot helps it feel very planted in corners and not very top-heavy. The front seats are some of the most comfortable I've ever sat in (and as a car enthusiast, I've been in a lot of different cars). The Tech Package upgrades the sound system, which is absolutely fantastic and highly recommended for audiophiles like myself. Additionally, the Tech Package gives you Navigation, a slew of safety features, and remote start. And I can honestly say, even though it's only been in one snow storm so far, this car may as well be a plow. It's excellent! You actually work hard to get it out of shape, which tells me the traction control, SH-AWD, etc. are all doing their job. Unfortunately though, it's still lacking in some areas, the biggest being the power and drivetrain. I'm sorry Honda, but the ZF-9-speed transmission is garbage! After all the issues that Chrysler has had with it in their vehicles, I see Honda's implementation of it in their vehicles, in a luxury line no less, as an abysmal failure. It's wonky from a dead stop: if you baby it, you go no where... but if you give it any gas, it surges you forward like a rocket (but not in a good way). Believe me, I love a car that can get-up-and-go... but if ever I find a car I like has a ZF 9-Speed Automatic in it again, I'll cross it off my list and keep on looking... I don't care how much I like it. The V6 has a good, throaty sound (as throaty as you can get from a luxury crossover) and it provides decent but underwhelming power, something I attribute to the transmission too. Unlike the potent direct-injection 4-Cylinder I had in the TLX with the 8-Speed Dual-Clutch Transmission (a match made in heaven, IMO), the big single-overhead-cam V6 just doesn't deliver with the low-end torque, particularly at highway speeds. Yes, it's the "corporate V6", but it's aging... quickly! If I need to pass someone, I find I have to downshift at least two gears just to get going again. A larger turbo would probably be awesome in an MDX (like the 300+ HP 2.3L EcoBoost found in the Ford Mustang). Mate something like that with a better transmission (maybe the 7-speed dual-clutch found in the Sport Hybrid model?) and I think the results would be fantastic! Another part of the car I'm not thrilled with are the brakes. They are strong and quite smooth, but man, they creek incessantly. Every time I'm stopped, when I release the pedal to accelerate, I hear a creek from the brake caliber releasing. For a $50K luxury crossover this is unacceptable, and sadly, it's something Acura has had issues with in their SH-AWD vehicles going back to the 2012 TL! There is also (at least in my 2018) a squeal when hopping on and off the brakes, mostly when reversing (i.e.: when backing into a spot, etc.). I've had two dealers look at the problem... one couldn't figure it out so I received the "it's normal for the car" answer, and the other dealer thought they figured it out but I've heard it since. Not as often, but I've heard it. My concluding thoughts? For the money, the MDX is a really good buy and it IS a really good car. Would I lease another though? Well, it highly depends on what the alleged 2020 redesign brings to the table, because there is room for improvement. One can only hope the redesigned MDX gains more athleticism and power that mimics its smaller sibling, the RDX, while maintaining the smoothness and comfort MDX buyers love.

Great looking and very comfortable. Acura is a very reliable car. I have owned four Acura’s and this will be my fifth one. I think it is the best car for the money!

This car is excellent value for money. Even the base version has most of the features that typically are upgrades in other cars in the same segment.

The car is great but the dealership ruined my Happiness , Don’t buy or lease and car from Acura Down town , they give you a used and damaged card as new car and if you complain to acura Canada , they don’t care about you . Acura downtown does not have a General Manager , only one cheaper guy roles as General sale manager and he screw up customers

This car is amazing! It super comfortable and roomy! The middle row moves forward and back ward . It’s great family vehicle, and such a smooth drive!

The seats are not comfortable at all. The front of the seat will not level out at all causing cramping in right leg after about an hour. Steering wheel will not adj.down at all. Acceleration is very delayed borderline dangerous. Info center terrible.

This is my first ever car payment and i have to say best car i have ever owned. Very reliable, drives smoothly, great gas mileage as well. My kids love it cause it's so roomy as well.

This car is good for four people without loosing its comfort zone.However for long trips with six or seven passengers,there is very little cargo room.If you sell this car for six or seven people at least for future models increase the length by at least a foot to provide some cargo capacity.I had this car for only a month, it is working for me without issues.The problem here is that you are making a medium sized SUV to work as a full sized SUV and you are loosing cargo space with seven or six passenger.

This car meets all my needs. I’m driving MDX for 10 years now and never disappointed by the quality and handling. This is definitely great car for the family.

This car has all the bells and whistle. highly recommend this vehicle,If you are looking for a roomier 7 passengers look no further get yourself a mdx

Replacing it with the new model year - have owned many SUV's and this is tops! New tires, completely detailed, like new. Third row with DVR.

We keep trying to buy something else in an SUV, but the overall value and design of the MDX is just superior. We have had only one event where we had to get to a dealer to fix a failing system in 12 years of this product. It is not as elegant as the Lexus or Mercedes, but it is good enough to withstand the $8,000 price differences. They hold their value and the dealer services are reasonable.

3 months ago Worst experience buying a car. The Acura had several problems with the transmission and they said it was "normal" on all the cars. The acuras come with a German transmission and they shift very hard.. It's uncomfortable for everyone in the car.. La peor experiencia que he tenido al comprar un vehículo ha sido aquí.. Los acuras vlenen ahora con transmisiones automáticas alemanas.. Los cambios ascendentes son muy bruscos y cuando recorta es aun peor. Lo más grave del asunto es que ellos te dicen que es" Normal".

It’s a very reliable car and safe it’s a very smoth in the road, is the best family car we have until now . All my family love it .

Stylish car on the outside and a lot of room on the inside. The optional third row is very helpful and the tech package is great too. I would buy another MDX.

This car feels like a tank going down the road! I love my Acura and all of it's amenities. This car is like "Calgon Take Me Away".
