Most common problems:

Dynamic brake support (dbs) malfunction

The DBS system may not engage properly, leading to reduced braking assistance during emergency stops.

Excessive engine vibration

The V-shaped engine configuration can sometimes cause balance issues, leading to noticeable vibrations.

Engine misfires

The JNC1 engine model might experience misfires due to ignition coil or spark plug issues, especially under heavy load.

Fuel injection issues

Problems with the Direct Fuel Injection or Sequential Multiport Fuel Injection systems can lead to poor fuel economy or engine performance.

Oil consumption

The high-performance nature of the 2017 ACURA NSX's engine might result in higher than expected oil consumption.

Overheating

The powerful 500 hp engine requires efficient cooling; any malfunction in the cooling system can lead to overheating.

Turbocharger lag

If the engine is turbocharged, there might be a noticeable lag before the turbo kicks in, affecting acceleration.

Transmission problems

High-performance engines like the one in the NSX can sometimes put excessive strain on the transmission, leading to issues such as slipping or rough shifting.
