NHTSA Complaint #10184077 — 2005 ACURA TSX

ACURA OF MEMPHIS IS SELLING VEHICLES PREVIOUSLY INFESTED AND DAMAGED BY RODENTS, PASSING THE COST OF REPAIRS TO THE CONSUMERS. I AM A VICTIM. HOW CAN THIS BE? THIS IS THE FIFTH BRAND NEW CAR THAT I HAVE PURCHASED/OWNED AND I HAVE NEVER HEARD OF OR EXPERIENCE A PROBLEM WITH RODENTS NESTING UNDER THE HOOD THE CAR IS LESS THEN TWO YEARS OLD MY CAR IS DRIVEN EVERY DAY IS ACURA MAKING CARS WITH PRODUCTS THAT ATTRACT RODENTS AND RACCOONS? WHERE WAS MY CAR PREVIOUSLY STORED BEFORE ARRIVING TO THE DEALERSHIP? HOW LONG WAS MY VEHICLE IN STORAGE BEFORE ARRIVING TO THE DEALERSHIP AND BEING SOLD TO ME AND OTHER CONSUMERS? RODENTS NESTING AND CHEWING WIRES UNDER THE HOOD, THIS HAPPENED BEFORE I PURCHASE THIS VEHICLE AND NOW IT HAS MANIFESTED 17 MONTHS LATER. I WANT ALL REPAIRS DONE AT NO COST OR A NEW VEHICLE. THERE IS NO WAY OF KNOWING WHAT ELSE IS GETTING READY TO STOP FUNCTIONING OR WHAT WILL BE THE NEXT LIGHT TO DISPLAY ON MY DASH BOARD. MY AUTOMOBILE INSURER SAYS THEY DO NOT COVER RODENT DAMAGE. *JB
