Acura Care Maintenance Plan for 2017 RDX

Acura Care Maintenance Plan for 2017 RDX
Has anyone taken the Acura Care Maintenance Plan. What is the generic service cost we can expect on the RDX. I am being offered a 4y/48k plan for $860. Is it worth it?
#3
Burning Brakes
Oil changes are super easy on the RDX. It's very easy to DIY.
#4
Well, DIY is always cheaper, but OP probably not interested in DIY. If you go to dealers, then I think that is not the best deal, but not bad at all. You will save money for sure. Go for it if DIY is not your type.

I have no history with Saccucci Honda (Middletown, RI) but other members here on AZine have gotten good pricing on both maintenance plans and warranty plans. I know you aren't asking about extended warranty plans, but I have personally purchased three extended warranties from Bernardi Honda (Natick, MA). You could reach out to them and get quotes and see how they compare. It doesn't matter that they are Honda dealers as they can write for both Honda and Acura. After all everything is backed by American Honda.
If you do reach out for quotes, I would be interested to hear how they compare and other members may benefit from your research -

I think I might have spent less than $860 between 3 Acura vehicles in the last 4 years on routine maint? I'm not much of DYI person myself but I do some maint myself and have local shops do others along with the Dealership:
- Discount tires: new tires, rotations, balance, road hazard (lifetime with tire purchase)
- Firestone: alignments (lifetime), minor suspension work
- Interstate battery: testing and battery replacement
- Local repair shop: Hondata ECU reflash, ETS intercooler install, suspension work like new shock/struts for RDX, brakes, camber kit and new endlinks for TSX, brake upgrade for MDX, alternator, power steering pump
- Acura Dealership: warranty work, A/B services, sometimes to diagnose an issue and I take somewhere else to fix a lot cheaper, installation of OEM accessories (roof rack, side steps, MDX hitch with harness, RDX front spoiler,)
- Home: air and cabin filter, wiper blades, replaced broken sun visor, upgrade HIDs to OSRAM, replace cabin lights to LED, check PSI, install of rear hitch with 4-way harness for RDX
- Local upholstery shop to fix RDX torn center arm rest.
- Walmart/eBay/Amazon: purchase engine oil from Walmart, stuff like spark plugs from Amazon, and new or used engine parts from eBay to take to local shop or Dealership
An Acura dealership can do majority of the above; but, it would cost me a lot more money at the dealership if I did everything there between 3 vehicles.

using the maintenace minder that could be 4 oil changes and 1 tranny drain and fill and 1 differential drain and fill and maybe 1 brake fluid flush
at 860 that seems close to dealer pricing.

Oil changes come around 6k for most folks here so you would get a lot more than 4 in 48k. They also do cabin/air filters and wipers every 15k (I have had mine replaced twice so far). Transmission flush will be every 30k. They also rotate the tires every 8-10k.
I know there are many other methods to do things cheaper. I just bought two 5 quart jugs of Mobile 1 0w20 oil for ~$10 each and will use it on my Tacoma - and the RDX if I keep it past 50k. Discount Tire will rotate tires for free no matter if purchased there or not. Filters/Wipers are easy enough to buy and replace on your own as well. The only thing I will need to have done professionally when the warranty is up are transmission flushes. For now I prefer to let the dealer handle service as if something comes up while under warranty - I want them as compliant as possible.

i choose to buy the warranties as i get them from hyannis honda at the lowest in the US prices and no tax. i keep the cars a long time and i can always sell it with the warranty.
i get service done locally by a friends shop , i buy my own filters and brake parts and special oils like ATF and diff. i also do 5k oil changes using 0w20.

and I'm pretty sure an AC repair is going to be pretty pricey in a few years if they have to replace condenser and compressor, id bet almost 2k. when i had it on my corolla i got over 2500 in repairs done during the 7 years i owned it. with my highlander i made out pretty well. used it over the 5 years and got a refund on the 2 unused years offsetting my rdx warranty.

We didn't get extended warranty AcuraCare on our 2010 MDX or our 2014 RDX, because both of those cars are very reliable and pretty straightforward. Also they were both a couple years into the model run so we thought at the time that the bugs would be worked out. This has thus far proven to be a good call. The RDX is under warranty still, and other than the airbag we've had no problems. Acura gave us a brand new Toyota Camry for four months during the airbag recall, so we are also way ahead on mileage >>> we will get the full four years before hitting 50,000 miles. Our 2010 MDX AWD has been incredibly reliable. In seven years we've spent a total of .... zero dollars .... on repair services. We've been religious about maintenance, and built a good relationship with our Service Manager. We've found the maintenance service charges to be fairly priced and always get a loaner so we haven't minded paying for maintenance service.
So, knowing what I know now, I would NOT get a repair service contract on an RDX but I would probably get a maintenance service contract if the $/$ made sense, and if they would let me bring it in at 30% on the oil change versus lower 15% that they write on the windshield reminder sticker.
I did did get a 7year/100K extended AcuraCare warranty on our RLX AWD Sport Hybrid. We paid $1615 for it, at our local dealer that we purchased from, a few months after the original sale. There's a lot going on in the Hybrid and I feel good about that decisIon. It's been a reliable car for seven months and just under 6000 miles, but we plan on keeping it for a decade. In my experience the dealers would like to make a profit on the plans but they also know you will be a loyal service customer if you have a warranty or service plan, so they will price them competitively if you take your time to learn their cost and offer near that number.

Extended waranty is an other thing. I will think about it Close to 48k mileage. The price remains the same if we take it now or then. I am more worried about the tech having issues then anything. The advance has too many bells and whistles that can go wrong.

that would be really handy info to have. Please do provide the same. For now I will be going with the Acura care maintainence package at $770 for 4/48. I think that's a good deal considering I am not a DIY person when it comes to cars. Looking at 7 oils changed and tire rotation each at $120 at a dealer I would come ahead just with that. Add 15k and 30k service $770 definitely looks worth it.

We have a 2016 Advance and it does have a lot of electronics in it and have been debating the whole AcuraCare thing as well. It has been a long time since I have researched the AcuraCare plans but I thought the price moved up as the miles did?

I'm probably going to get a lot of flack for this.. and TBH I didn't really know much better other than a close friend who purchased a pre-owned G35 back in the day and everything you could think of went wrong. Transmission, engine failure, window went out.. you name it. He always told me, ALWAYS get the extended warranty. Since then, it stuck in my head just having to seeing what he went through. I paid $2200 for the AcuraCare extended warranty which was tacked onto my financing. It was expensive no doubt. Not sure if I over paid. Thoughts? I even talked them down too. Lol. There is a zero deductible.
I just recently bought a CPO 2013 RDX with 53K miles. Acura bumper to bumper was 4 years/50K (obviously mine had already expired) and 6 years/70K for the power train. The CPO offered 1 extra year and extra miles on each so now it's 5 years/62K (now limited warranty, not bumper to bumper keep in mind) and 7 years/100K to the power train starting from the original sale date which was as of May of 2013. So the limited warranty ends on May 2018 and power train ends on May 2020. The limited warranty was what I was worried about the most because essentially that meant I'd have less than year (10 months) and 9K miles before it ended. Everyone knows things always goes wrong right when the warranty ends! Lol.
Anyway, my AcuraCare plan gave me 8 years total/100K miles of the limited warranty. It will basically cover everything that's electrical, suspension, and of course power train. It doesn't cover things like cosmetic, like paint, trims, seal, rattles, squeaks, hoses, etc. but will cover the major stuff. It'll take me out to May 2021 or 100K which ever comes first. I hope I made a smart move. You just never know when you buy pre-owned.
For example, that popping/clunking noise and transmission judder I got fixed in the first week of purchasing the car. Yeah, I would've been covered with the CPO warranty but they only replaced the shocks on my right side that failed. What if the left side goes out the follow year. This car is notorious for failing shocks the more I kept reading.

I wonder how that works since it's built into my finance... Would they cut me a check for the refund? Wonder if I should contact my dealership that I purchased it from or AcuraCare directly. I mean that's a $545 dollar difference..

You might want to start by going to the dealership that sold you the higher priced plan and see if they will match the quote. I think that would be the easiest - assuming they will do so. They would cut you a check for the difference and you can either put that back in your pocket (keep in mind you are financing this) or send it in to your finance company with your next payment as extra principal.

No matter what happens - you can get a prorated refund for the unused portion of the warranty from American Honda / Acura. Assuming you have the paperwork both from the dealership and the warranty from Acura - read them and see what they say. IOW - be informed going in. I honestly don't know about the 30 - 60 day cancel policy kipsy mentions above. And as you pointed out - make sure the quote from Hyannis Honda is still good and you can get the AcuraCare warranty from them if your dealership isn't willing to match. Good luck and report back -

I have heard about this but don't remember the details. I think there was an AZine member who was similarly in your situation but was in FL. And IIRC, he could only buy from a FL dealer. If you want to continue to dig, I know other Azine members have purchased on line and done well from Saccucci Honda in Middletown, RI, Bernardi Honda in Natick, MA and Curry Acura in Scarsdale, NY.

You may want to pick up the phone and call these dealers. I know personally that talking with Bernardi Honda, they were able to write an extended warranty when Hyannis Honda said they couldn't. Same car and same mileage. Don't take what you see on the websites as end of the road and pick up the phone and let your fingers do the walking.

So I reached out Juliana and she said since I purchased a CPO with over 50K miles I couldn't purchase Acura Care from a different dealer. Only my dealer at the time could sell a warranty for my specific car. Looks like I basically didn't have a choice and it looks like the guy I was working with actually knew what he was talking about saying how I had to buy it at that time only. Also my credit union tried to sell me one too but the prices turned out to be about the same as well.

That's unfortunate, but I guess it make sense. Assuming you decide to keep the extended warranty - and this is likely going to sound backwards - I hope you get lots of use out of it

Well I hope so too lol. I'm hoping my left shocks go out during the warranty so I can get it replaced like I did my right side. Lol.
