Acura has a track record for having very good crash tests and very safe cars. The 2007 MDX, TL, TSX, and TL all have 5 star Driver's Side Frontal and Passenger's Side Frontal crash ratings. As with most cars, safety gets better as the company realizes what has been going wrong. The 1996 Integra only have a 4 star Driver's Side and a 3 star Passenger's Side test score. The 1995 Legend is exactly the opposite, with a 3 star Driver's Side and a 4 star Passenger's Side. The 1997 SLX only had 3 stars for each test, so being that it's an older SUV for Acura, it is not as safe as their newer SUV, the MDX which was referenced above. The 1992 Vigor has the worst ratings, with only 2 stars for each test. The 2005 Acura MDX was the only car in the Acura line up to be tested for the Side Impact crash, getting 5 stars in both Front and Rear Occupant.
The newer Acuras are much safer than the older production models. Some of the older models never had publicized crash test results either, showing that they were not as safe as Acura would have liked.
