Lately, Acura and Honda products we've evaluated have shown a decline in build quality, and while the RDX was better in this regard than many vehicles on the market, there were a couple of obvious flaws on the inside. The metallic dash trim on the left side of the gauge pod was dented, and the gasket between the upper dash and the central dash was sticking out on both sides. Outside, the hood's gaps were tight at the headlights but wide at the windshield, door fit at the A-pillars could have been better, and the right front door did not fit flush at the B-pillar.
