Like someone said earlier I would stay away from 2001/2002 because of transmission issues. I would suggest buying acura certified. Mine came with 1 year bumper to bumper and engine/powertrain till 2010. Replies to this message: stevecar (Dec 04, 2006 9:36 am)

#17 of 18 ACURA mdx transmission issues by mdxowner1 Jun 26, 2009 (8:00 pm)
do have 2002 mdx bought when 55k, 75k transmission failure $3600 engine mounts replaced $600 p1457 EVA system problem $300 rear struts replaced $450 timimg bel $900 i spent more than $5000 on this. mdx has lots of problems. i don't know why acura doesn't cover these. i wonder why honda/acura gets high marks for quality? had toyota 190000 miles for past 13 years. no major problems other than normal wear and tear. never had to replace any thing big. i wonder where the consumer reports gets their rating from? no wonder .
