Consumer Description

POWER STEERING STARTED TO FAIL ALL OF A SUDDEN. WAS NOT ABLE TO STEER AT ALL. THE DEALER TOLD ME IT WAS CAUSED BY THE RACK AND PINION GOING OUT WHICH ALSO AFFECTED THE POWER STEERING PUMP TO FAIL. THIS SHOULD NOT HAPPEN WHEN THE CAR ITSELF WAS DRIVEN ONLY 60K PLUS MILES AND THE CAR WAS ALWAYS WELL TAKEN CARE OF THROUGH THE DEALERSHIP. I PAID 3,000 DOLLARS TO GET THIS FIXED! THERE ARE MULTIPLE CASES REGARDING RACK AND PINION POWER STEERING ISSUES FROM THE ACURA TSX. THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL FROM ACURA A LONG TIME AGO. THIS ISSUE MUST BE RESOLVED ASAP.
