We took a roadtrip in our new MDX and upgraded to the Acura-Link Premium to test out features. Standard comes with car and is good for three years. To upgrade you must put a hold on a credit card. To cancel, you must notify AcuraLink (800) 382-2238 30 days before the end of your 90 day trial. After 90 days...you get a nice $348 charged to your card. Went on a roadtrip with our new 2015 MDX. Most of the features are fun, shiny but in the end redundant. You get Acura roadside assistance with your warranty but most of us have some type already with our insurance. If you travel extensively, the Live Assistance 24/7 Cloud-Based Nav Services, and Real Time Vehicle status could provide peace of mind. We used our phone or planned our course at home on the computer. In an emergency, these are extremely nice. Here is why we decided NOT to keep it.
We bedded down for the night in a remote hotel in Oregon after a long day on the road. I checked my nifty AcuraConnect app on my iPhone and this is the message that appeared.
