Consumer Description

THIS IS A 2009 ACURA TSX. WHILE DRIVING THERE IS A RATTLE-TYPE SOUND THAT COMES FROM THE ENGINE. TOOK THE CAR TO TWO ACURA DEALERS AND BOTH ACKNOWLEDGED THE SOUND, BUT DECLARED IT A "CHARACTERISTIC" OF THE CAR. HUNDREDS, IF NOT THOUSANDS OF OTHER '09 TSX OWNERS ARE EXPERIENCING THIS SAME NOISE (THERE ARE SEVERAL BLOGS ALL OVER THE INTERNET) AND WE ARE CONCERNED THAT IT MIGHT CAUSE SOME SORT OF SERIOUS DAMAGE WHILE WE ARE DRIVING THE CAR. *TR
