My wife and I just bought a 2017 Acura RDX. What is your take on the cylinder deactivation on the Honda 3.5 and technology in new cars in general? I’m worried that the cyl deactivation adds a level of complexity, but I also like the gas mileage of a 4 cyl with the power of a 6. The RDX is packed with technology (parking sensors, rear camera, lane keep assist, touchscreen, heated/cooled seats etc). Complex systems mean complex fixes when there is a problem. Do you have experience with these types of systems failing in Honda’s and Acura’s?
