Consumer Description
THE OTHER DAY I WAS DRIVING ON THE FREE WAY AND MY STEERING WHEEL LOCKED UP ON ME WHILE I WAS DRIVING WHICH COULD'VE CAUSED AN ACCIDENT OR SOMETHING MORE WORSE. A LOT OF COMPLAINTS WERE ALREADY MADE ON ARFC SO I'M SURPRISED THIS HASN'T BECOME AN ISSUE FOR THE DEALERSHIP TO MAKE THIS A RECALL. IT'S A SAFETY HAZARD AND CAN CAUSE SOMEONE'S LIFE. I REALLY HOPE THIS GETS ESCALATED SO WE CAN SAVE SOMEONE'S LIFE AND GET A REFUND FOR REPLACING THIS COMPUTER CHIP MODULE THAT'S COST 1500 DOLLARS. I SPOKE TO THE ACURA COMPLAINT CENTER AND THE REP SAID IF THEY GET MORE COMPLAINTS LIKE THIS IT WILL LEAD INTO A RECALL AND WE WOULD GET A REFUND. IT'S RIDICULOUS THAT THIS HASN'T ALREADY BECOME A RECALL DUE TO IT BEING A SAFETY HAZARD.
