I'm surprised no other Acuras made the list. I'm sure the MDX probably came out too late to be tested for that. You'd think that they would wait till more 2007 vehicles came out to put out the safest 2007 vehicles list.

ALSO-RANS
Rear protection isn't good
These vehicles earned good ratings in front and side crash tests. They have electronic stability control, standard or optional. They would have won 2007 TOP SAFETY PICK awards if their seat/head restraints also had earned good ratings. Instead rear crash protection is rated acceptable, marginal, or poor (Honda reports that the seat/head restraints in the only Civic model with electronic stability control wouldn’t be rated good).
Acceptable rear protection
Audi A3
BMW 3-series 4dr
Lexus IS 250/350
Marginal rear protection
Acura TL
Honda Odyssey
Lexus ES 350
Lexus GS 350
Toyota Camry
Toyota FJ Cruiser
Toyota Prius
Toyota RAV4
Poor rear protection
Honda Accord 4dr
Infiniti M35
Nissan Quest
Toyota Avalon
Toyota Sienna

Just received a $33 refund from my insurance carrier. Stated reason was "The attached refund is a result of rating information received." RDX safety ratings must have been better than originally estimated.
