2005 ACURA NSX
This model year
What the record shows
The 2005 Acura Nsx is a two-seater, and the 16th model year of a nameplate NHTSA records from 1990 to 2022.
The EPA rated two configurations: engines from 3-litre six-cylinder to 3.2-litre six-cylinder, rear-wheel drive only, two transmissions and running on premium gasoline.
Combined fuel economy is 18 mpg.
The federal record holds 1 owner complaint and 10 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.
