Shut Down of 3G Network
Not sure if this has been posted, just wanted to share. The 3G network is shutting down in 2022. This article summarizes the impacts and has a list of affected cars.

Not sure why Acura doesn't allow connection with our smartphones to bypass the built-in 3G or 4G module (same way we can use Wi-Fi or cellular data at home)? I'm not effected since I have a 18 RLX & 19 MDX; but, Acuralink is still slooooow with my updated (4G?) module.

Apparently an updated cellular module for our cars costs $3-4k.
I only have the Standard subscription, so the affected services for me according to the link in the article provided by mrrobato are Real Time Traffic and Maintenance Reminders. I thought our cars provided maintenance reminders even without an AcuraLink subscription. Is this not the case? (I know, I should read the owner's manual!)
