Hello everyone! Newbie here. Picked up our Steel Blue/Taupe Sport X last Friday. Only a 100 miles on it so far. X is at the dealer for warranty service. Radio lost most ability to receive frequencies AM/FM. Honda told dealer to replace radio unit, and send the defective unit back to them for inspection/teardown. Dealer has to order new unit, X won't be ready until Tuesday! What a bummer! We love this vehicle.power, looks, technology,comfort etc. this suv rocks!

Installed running boards ourselves, Yes wife got underneath the X to help me crank on those bolts. Took us 3 hours to do. Was gonna wax the X today and install the BSMs, but shes' in the shop.

Love this forum, lots of great info, and great people who share our love for the MDX!!!

That sucks. At least it's not a mechanical problem. Have em update the radio head unit software while it's there, if you fall under the appropriate VIN.

The wife or the X is in the shop?

I haven't formally analyzed my data for this, but my gut sense is that head unit failures are fairly common in many cars. I get the sense that audio systems aren't durability tested as much as a car's other electrical systems.

I'll have initial reliability information on the new MDX in May. A couple dozen owners have signed up to participate in my research, many from this forum. Thanks, guys.
