Consumer Description

My rod bearing seized, and I had to replace the entire engine. Per the remedy, I should be reimbursed the costs for the replacement due to the engine rod being blown. I have submitted to Acura, and they keep telling me to bring the vehicle in for inspection, but the engine has already been replaced. I have attached the recall notification along with the original deposit for the repair and then the final cost. I submitted it to Acura on 01/16 and was told that the issue has not been resolved since the parts are not available. We have replaced the engine and are seeking reimbursement, not the parts being replaced.
