Tl* the contact owns a 2016 acura rdx. the contact stated that the steering wheel failed while exiting a fuel service station. when the contact attempted to turn the steering wheel to the right, the steering wheel abruptly locked and the vehicle drove into a ditch. there were no injuries. the steering wheel regained normal operation while reversing the vehicle out of the ditch. the contact drove the vehicle home. the vehicle was not taken to a dealer for diagnostic testing. the manufacturer was not notified. the failure mileage was 23,000.
I purchased a 2016 acura rdx with 995 miles on 1/21/2016. on the drive home, and several times since (the latest being earlier this week) while making a left turn at slow speed (after stopping or slowing) the vehicle "dies" and i keep pushing on the accelerator and after 20 seconds or so, it "grabs" and i can continue on. current mileage on the vehicle is 1739. i called gettel acura in sarasota fl and was told that the vehicle has to learn my driving habits and my driving style. per gettel service manager, this should be self-correcting at about 2000 miles.
