Some times it shakes and jerks much more than other times, but either way it seems to be a common problem when searching forums and there doesn't seem to be any solution besides replacing the transmission. The dealership has recommended a full transmission replacement which costs more than the value of the car.

I have called 2 different dealers in my area, the first said they wouldn't have the parts to fix the car until December 2024 at the earliest, the second just stated that they don't have the parts. It seems to me this is quite a bit of time to be driving with a suspected faulty fuel pump. It is April 30,2024. https://plaincars.com/make/acura-mdx-sport-hybrid https://plaincars.com/make/acura-mdx-sport-hybrid#complaint-1976427 Mon, 18 Mar 2024 00:00:00 GMT NHTSA Recall Number 23V-858.

It's happened twice and could easily have crashed into surrounding property or pedestrians. I brought the vehicle to the Dealership but considering it is an intermittent problem they couldn't duplicate the situation.

During the day it is clear. It always happens. I’ve taken it to two dealerships and they could not reproduce the issue because it needs to be dark around the car. I’ve brought in photographs. And they still can’t find an issue. On line there are many complaints about this issue. I can’t see if someone walks behind my vehicle. https://plaincars.com/make/acura-mdx-sport-hybrid https://plaincars.com/make/acura-mdx-sport-hybrid#complaint-1787255 Sat, 08 Jan 2022 00:00:00 GMT My FCW/Auto-brake settings are all set to minimum interference.
