Consumer Description

MY TSX HAS 58,469 MILES AND HAS ALWAYS BEEN SERVICED AT AN ACURA DEALERSHIP. ABOUT 6 MONTHS AGO DURING A ROUTINE SERVICE THE SERVICE ADVISOR POINTED OUT THAT THE RACK AND PINION WAS LEAKING. THE ADVISOR SAID THAT THE LEAK CAME FROM THE SEALS AND THAT THIS WAS A COMMON ISSUE ON THE TSX'S. GIVEN THAT THE VEH HAS SUCH LOW MILEAGE AND HAVING BEEN SERVICED AT THE DEALER THIS ISSUE SHOULD NOT OCCUR. RACK AND PINIONS ARE DESIGNED TO LAST MUCH LONGER. DOING A QUICK RESEARCH ONLINE I CAME ACROSS MULTIPLE STORIES FROM TSX OWNERS EXPERIENCING THE SAME ISSUE AND SOME RESULTING IN ACCIDENTS OCCURRING. I HAVE ALL THE SERVICE RECORDS AND WOULD BE HAPPY TO SHARE THEM OR ANY ADDITIONAL DETAILS YOU MAY NEED.
