I do. And when I honk my horn, sometimes laser goes off lol. Honk again and laser goes off again! Kind of funny.
Time to send it in I guess.

I have a 8500 X50 as well but I dont have it on the RDX. I have it on a Civic and usually when the doors automatically locks after going over 25km/h or so, the laser will go off. My friend's X50 laser goes off when he honks or make some changes to the side mirrors, on a Mazda3. I think it is some electrical problem. Usually I leave the radar plugged in and when I start the car, the car uses lots of electricity, screwing up the radar. The best solution is to start the car and then plug in the radar. Meaning that you have to unplug the radar before starting the car.

I have the V1 in my car, use it every day...The Laser goes off anytime an Infiniti FX35, M35/45 or QX56 is behind me or coming towards me (with the laser cruise control)...pretty annoying..
