Consumer Description

THE REARVIEW MIRROR IN MY 2000 ACURA TL EXPLODED AND A BLACK LIQUID SPRAYED THROUGHOUT THE INTERIOR OF MY CAR. IT CORRODED A LARGE HOLE THROUGH MY CENTER CONSOLE (WHICH WAS REPLACED BY ACURA/HONDA AT NO CHARGE), DAMAGED MY LEATHER SEATS AND CARPET (WHICH ACURA/HONDA REFUSED TO REPLACE, BUT DID PERFORM A THOROUGH CLEANING OF BOTH...THE DEALER INVOICE STATED MERCURY LEAK), AND ALSO PROMPTED THE REPLACEMENT OF MY REARVIEW MIRROR (WHICH WAS ALSO REPLACED BY ACURA/HONDA AT NO CHARGE). JUST IMAGINE...IF CHEMICALS ARE TOXIC ENOUGH TO CORRODE A HOLE THROUGH YOUR CENTER CONSOLE, WHAT EFFECT DO THOSE CHEMICALS HAVE ON YOU WHEN INHALED? *TR
