2014 ACURA ILX
This model year
What the record shows
The 2014 Acura Ilx is a compact car, and the 2nd model year of a nameplate NHTSA records from 2013 to 2022.
The EPA rated two configurations: engines from 2-litre four-cylinder to 2.4-litre four-cylinder, front-wheel drive only, two transmissions and running on premium gasoline.
Combined fuel economy ranges from 25 to 27 mpg depending on which one you have.
NHTSA's best overall crash rating for this model year is 5 out of five stars.
The federal record holds 29 owner complaints, 5 safety recalls and 39 service bulletins for it.
Counts are reports, not rates. A complaint is something an owner chose to file; it is unverified and unadjusted for how many of these cars were sold, so the useful comparison is against other model years of the same car. Recalls and investigations carry more weight because a manufacturer or regulator acted on them.
Reading this report
Complaint counts are reports filed with NHTSA, not failure rates. A common model collects more of them than a rare one that breaks more often.
