Consumer Description
I RECENTLY PURCHASED A 2014 ACURA WHILE IT WAS STILL IN ITS WARRANTY PERIOD. AFTER FINALIZING THE PURCHASE OF A $40, 000.00, THE VEHICLE BEGAN EXHIBITING MECHANIC ISSUES WITH THE TRANSMISSION. SO NATURALLY, I CONTACTED THE MY LOCAL ACURA DEALERSHIP IN CHAPEL HILL, NC. I HAVE TAKEN MY VEHICLE TO THE SAME DEALERSHIP A TOTAL OF FOUR TIMES FOR THE SAME ISSUE TO ONLY BE TOLD THAT THERE WAS NOT PROBLEM WITH VEHICLE, WHEN IT EXHIBITS OTHERWISE. WITH THE SAME MECHANIC ISSUE WITH TRANSMISSION STILL EXHIBITING ITSELF, I DECIDED TO TAKE MY CAR TO THE ACURA DEALERSHIP IN FAYETTEVILLE, NC, WHICH IS MORE THAN 78 MILES FROM MY HOME. THE NICE FOLKS THERE DIAGNOSED THE VEHICLE AND DETERMINED THAT IT WAS THE TORT CONVERTER, WHICH CARRIES A PRICE TAG OF OVER $2,600.00 TO REPAIR. THE CONCERN I HAVE IS THAT SINCE MY CAR IS CURRENTLY OUT OF HIS 50K WARRANTY PERIOD, IN WHICH THE PROBLEM WAS REPORTED BUT NEVER PROPERLY DIAGNOSED APPROPRIATELY DURING THE TIME IT WAS UNDER WARRANTY, WILL ACURA HONOR ITS COMMITMENT TO IT CONSUMER AND STAND BEHIND ITS PRODUCT, AS THIS IS A COMMON ISSUES MISDIAGNOSED ISSUE (CLICK HERE ) TO BE DIRECTED TO THE ONLINE FORM.
