Our first test car showed some odd interior fit problems, uncharacteristically bad for Acura. We called to inquire, and Acura informed us that we had accidentally gotten a so-called “pilot” vehicle that wasn’t up to production specs. We swapped it out for a similar production model, and sure enough, the fit problems were solved. A quick stop at an Acura dealership confirmed that our second car was up to proper specs, so that's the vehicle on which we based our build quality impressions. Enough full disclosure: Fit and finish are very good on the MDX, with tight fits, pretty much zero gaps, and no rattles or squeaks. About the only nit is a largish gap between the dash and door panel.
