Consumer Description

THE POWER STEERING PUMP STARTED MAKING A FAINT WHINE WHILE DRIVING. PULLED OFF AT AN AUTO PARTS SHOP 1 MILE DOWN THE ROAD TO REFILL THE FLUID. WHILE SITTING THERE IDLING THE FLUID LEAK ALL OUT THE STEERING RACK AND REQUIRED TOWED TO HAVE RACK REPLACED. ACURA KNOWS THIS IS AN ISSUE AND ONLY OFFERED A DISCOUNT ON THE PART BUT $1000 LABOR WAS TO COME OUT OF MY POCKET. I WOULD HAVE LOST STEERING ABILITY. THIS WOULD NOT BE THE SAME AS JUST LOSING THE PUMP'S HELP. *JS
