| 2007 | STEERING | TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 ACURA TL. THE CONTACT STATED THAT SMOKE WAS SEEN COMING FROM UNDER THE HOOD OF THE VEHICLE AS THE STEERING WHEEL WAS TURNED ACCOMPANIED BY A LOUD BUZZING NOISE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHO ADVISED THAT THERE WAS A LEAK IN THE HIGH PRESSURE POWER STEERING HOSE AND THAT THE HOSE WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED. THE CONTACT REFERENCED NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER: 08V091000 (STEERING: HYDRAULIC POWER ASSIST: HOSE, PIPING, AND CONNECTIONS) BUT WAS ADVISED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL.

| 2004 | AIR BAGS | CRACKS DEVELOPED ON DASH BOARD. SMALL AT FIRST BUT HAVE GROWN OVER THE PAST 2 YEARS. I THOUGHT IT WAS JUST A COSMETIC PROBLEM BUT HAVE READ RECENTLY THAT THIS COULD BE A SAFETY ISSUE WITH THE AIRBAGS NOT DEPLOYING. ACURA REFUSES TO FIX OR REMEDY THE PROBLEM EVEN THOUGH I HAVE PROVIDED APPROPRIATE CARE AND MAINTENANCE OVER THE YEARS. *TR |
