Used Vehicle Review:
Acura MDX, 2001-2006

2003 Acura MDXThough early Acura MDX SUVs had some reliability issues related to the automatic transmission, Used Car Reviewer Chris Chase still thinks the MDX is a "very good choice for a used SUV."  "Consumer Reports considers the MDX an above-average used-vehicle buy, despite noting the transmission and climate control issues," he notes.

A colleague of mine has owned MDXs since they came onto the scene. He loves it - and wouldn't even consider another make for his needs. His worst off-roading requirement is making it from Stittsville to Calabogie Peaks a couple of times a week in the winter to ski.

He has never had any of the problems cited in the article - so I suppose he must consider himself lucky.

No issues with our 2004.  Heard about the same problems identified in the article.  Brake clunk was a TSB fix. 

It's served us very well....great SUV.

This is one of the SUVs/wagons I am considering as an alternative to a new one. One requirement that I have is dynamic stability control or VSA for honda/acura. Does anyone know if VSA came standard or as part of a package?

Thanks.

Thanks.

My 2004 comes with it....no package.  Standard.
