“I recently came across this website, I have a 1991 Acura Legend, purchased brand-new. To date I have had to replace the speed sensor, radiator, master cylinder, A/C condenser, anti-theft system work randomly and goes crazy, rear right window does not work most of the time, factory keyless entry has failed, bose audio amp has blown, have not replaced nor received a recall notice, tape deck over heats and tapes get stuck, switching gears the car jumps. Cannot unlock car with keys, had to install aftermarket keyless entry system.”
NHTSA complaint #10045064, filed 2003-10“A recalled ampliflyer melted and created fire within the cabin of the car. I have never received any type of notice. When I called Acura of america they referred me to Acura of canada because the car originated in canada, but has been registered in the us for many years. Further the same recall part was installed on the us version of the same vehical. I feel like I am getting the run around from a large corporation. Things may have turned out very tragiclly had my wife and 2 year old daughter been in the car instead of just me. …”
