Consumer Description

BATTERY KEPT GOING DEAD AND STRANDING ME IN MULTIPLE PLACES. HAD TO PURCHASE A PORTABLE CAR STARTER IN ORDER TO KEEP RESTARTING THE CAR. COULDN'T FIND ANY OFFICIAL REASONS BEHIND IT FROM ANY ACURA SOURCES. AFTER SOME INTERNET SEARCHING I FOUND OUT THAT THE HFL BLUETOOTH MODULE WAS CAUSING A BATTERY DRAIN FOR MANY OTHER OWNERS. SOLUTION WAS TO REMOVE THE MODULE. AFTER THAT THE PROBLEM WENT AWAY. WAS STRANDED MULTIPLE TIMES -- VERY UNSAFE!! ALSO HAD TO PURCHASE CAR STARTER AND NEW BATTERY! ACURA DEALERS REFUSED TO PAY FOR THE NEW HFL REPLACEMENT. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE THAT HAS AFFECTED MANY DRIVERS. COULD BE VERY DANGEROUS.
