“Transmission failed today 123k. Called customer service what a joke. Emissions light on and air bags are faulty. What a lemon. Nevet buy acura. On a city street car just down shifted and stopped. Needless to say it was 20 degree's outside. Acura doesnt see thus as a safety hazard? Confused and mad…”

“The fuel gauge indicated that the tank was half empty. As soon as I began to fuel the car, the fuel overflowed spilling on the vehicle. I suspect that the fuel vapor recovery system might be defective.”
