Problem overview

Some Acura MDX owners report experiencing multiple warning lights related to the brake system and electric power steering illuminating, which may temporarily resolve after restarting the vehicle. These warning lights can indicate issues within the braking system, such as worn brake pads, fluid leaks, or problems with the electric parking brake and automatic brake hold systems. Additionally, the illumination of the brake system indicator light may signal low brake fluid levels or a malfunction within the brake system itself. While the MDX's rack-and-pinion steering linkage allows for mechanical steering even if the electric power steering fails, it is crucial to address the underlying issues causing the warning lights. Owners are advised to seek diagnostics from a dealer or qualified mechanic if the warning lights persist or reoccur to prevent further complications.
