Complaint
1997
SUSPENSION:FRONT:CONTROL ARM:LOWER BALL JOINT
TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 1997 ACURA RL. THE CONTACT HEARD A LOUD CLICKING NOISE COMING FROM THE WHEELS WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED. HE TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER AND THEY STATED THAT THE LOWER BALL JOINTS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. HE DID NOT HAVE THE BALL JOINTS REPLACED BECAUSE THEY WERE REPLACED AT 70,000 MILES. THE CONTACT FILED A COMPLAINT WITH THE MANUFACTURER. THE CURRENT AND FAILURE MILEAGES WERE 143,000. UPDATED 01-29-08. *KB UPDATE
2005
EXTERIOR LIGHTING:HEADLIGHTS
2005 ACURA RL LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS TOTALLY FAILED, UNEXPECTEDLY, AND THE CAR WAS NOT MOVING FORWARD. THIS HAS BEEN A RECURRING PROBLEM WITH THE LEFT SIDE LOW BEAM, SOMETIMES I DIDN'T KNOW IT UNTIL TOLD AND NOW IT HAPPENS TO BOTH AT THE SAME TIME WHILE IDLING IN MY DRIVEWAY. MY DAUGHTER TOLD ME BOTH HAD CUT OUT ON HER EARLIER THIS MONTH, BUT I COULD NOT VERIFY UNTIL TODAY. TURNING THE SWITCH OFF / ON WILL BRING THE LIGHTS BACK ON, BUT THEN AGAIN FOR HOW LONG IS QUESTIONABLE. DEALERS DENY IT EXIST OR CAN'T VERIFY, BUT A QUICK WEB SEARCH HAS NOW VALIDATED MY PROBLEM HAS EXISTED FOR A VERY LONG TIME WITH THIS CAR. THIS IS MUCH MORE SERIOUS THAN I THOUGHT, CLEARLY A PROBLEM YOU SHOULD BE AWARE OF. *KB
