I was driving on a highway with the automatic cruise control (acc) enabled and set at 68 mph. without touching the pedal or controls, the cruise speed setting suddenly jumped to 90 mph and my car rapidly accelerated to reach that speed. fortunately, there was no one in front of me and i was able to take control of the car and disable cruise control.

9,249 miles on a 2017 acura rdx. check engine light came on while in motion on a highway at approximately 65 mph with notable loss of power (once stopped it took a full 30 seconds to get to 15 mph). let car sit for 2 hours as manual stated. once restarted and driven for approximately 20 feet all lights on dashboard where flashing and again virtually no power. vehicle was towed to the dealership. tech performed hds scan and retrieved error codes: p0304, p0 05, and p0306...4/5/6. dealership claims was all due to needing a software update. of which i never would have been aware of unless i experienced this scary loss of power on the highway. they had no sort of alert out that the new models are in need of a software update. dangerous and do not feel safe driving this car any longer.
