I really enjoyed my Acura MDX. I purchased it new and drove it for 7 years as my primary vehicle. The exterior, interior, performance, and comfort were outstanding. However from the very beginning I had small electrical system nagging problems that dealership could never seem to rectify. It was overall realiable but because of electrical system glitches I never felt comfortable in using all of the features of the top of line model I had. The value of vehicle for the price paid I feel like was too expensive based on the very high cost of any service or repairs by the Acura dealership. When I was ready to purchase a new vehicle I test drove a new MDX but decided that the price did not warrant the features and past experience I had with my last MDX.

As I said in my review, I purchased this car from this dealership in 2017. At the time it had about 35,000 miles on it. It has been a great car. It gets 25-27mpg on the highway although it only gets 18-20 around town. The seats are comfortable and there's plenty of cargo room if you keep the third row seats down. The only thing it doesn't have that I would like is a heated steering wheel. My previous car, a 2012 GMC Denali XL, had a heated wheel, and in the winter it was really great to grab a warm steering wheel. This is a great family car and I would wholeheartedly recommend it.

I had moved away from Acura after I sold my 2006 RL. Unreliable, squeaks from plastics, leather would bubble from places etc. Bought a Lexus GX470 and the difference was day and night. Most reliable car I had ever owned and the built quality is out this world. Kept it for about 7 years and needed an upgrade. Test drove the MDX and it was nothing like the RL. Build quality is excellent, no squeaks and rattles from anywhere - has 60k on the clock. Ride not no where near Lexus but if is definitely much more sporty and zippy. If you are looking for an affordable suv I would recommend test drive.
