NHTSA Complaint #11101246 — 2011 ACURA TSX

I HAD RETURNED HOME FROM VISITING MY DAUGHTER, AND PARKED MY CAR IN MY DRIVEWAY. THIRTY MINUTES LATER I RETURNED TO MY CAR TO DRIVE IT TO TOWN AND THE POWER STEERING INDICATOR WAS LIT UP. I HAD LOST POWER STEERING. CAR IS SEVEN YEARS OLD WITH 100K MILES. I TOOK IT TO HONDA DEALER SINCE WE DON'T HAVE AN ACURA DEALER. THEY QUOTED ME 3K TO REPAIR. I SAID THAT WAS UNACCEPTABLE. SHORT OF REPLACING THE ENGINE IN A CAR, NO REPAIR SHOULD COST THAT. I BOUGHT ACURA BECAUSE I THOUGHT THEY WERE RELIABLE. THIS IS RIDICULOUS. SERVICE PERSON SUGGESTED I TRADE IT IN INSTEAD OF PUTTING THAT MUCH INTO IT. ARE YOU KIDDING ME!! SO, I GUESS I WILL BE DRIVING WITHOUT POWER STEERING.
