NHTSA Complaint #10110598 — 2000 ACURA TL

I RECENTLY HAD A RECALL ATTENDED TO ON MY 2000 ACURA WHEN THE TECHNICIAN TOLD ME THAT MY ENGINE MOUNTS NEEDED REPLACEMENT! I WAS QUITE SURPRISED AT THIS EXPECIALLY WHEN HE THEN TOLD ME THAT THIS WAS AN INHERENT PROBLEM WITH THIS CAR AND HE DOES 10-15 PERF WEEK!!! THE MOUNTS, HE SAID, ARE DESIGNED TO LAST BETWEEN 70-90000 MILES, AND SINCE I HAD 87000 IT WAS NO SURPRISE TO HIM. I HAVE HAD MANY CARS AND NEVER RAN INTO THIS PROBLEM, WITH AN INHERENT ENGINE MOUNT DEFECT. IF THIS IS THE CASE, I FEEL THE DESIGN SHOULD BE CORRECTED AND WE, THE OWNERS SHOULD NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE $458(AT THIS TIME) IS COSTS TO FIX THEIR MISTAKE. THANK YOU FOR YOUR CONCERN. RESPECTFULLY, JOEL KREISS
