DRIVING AROUND 30 MPH, IT BECAME HARD TO TURN THE WHEEL UNEXPECTEDLY. THERE WERE NO HITS/BUMPS/ETC. SO; IT WAS POWER STEERING FLUID LEAKING AND I HAD TO GET POWER STEERING RACK REPLACED. THE CAR WAS ALWAYS DEALER MAINTAINED, THERE WERE NO KNOWN REASONS FOR THE LEAK; NO BUMP HITS AS MENTIONED. THE POWER STEERING HOSE WAS REPLACED WHEN IT WAS RECALLED. ONE KNOWN ISSUE WAS THAT I WAS ALSO EXPERIENCING KNOWN SQUEAKING STEERING NOISE ISSUE AND I WAS TOLD BY THE DEALER THAT IT WAS KNOWN, BUT NOT RISKY. THERE SHOULD BE FULL POWER STEERING RACK RECALL ON THESE MODELS (TO COVER LEAK AND NOISE ISSUES). I CAN NOT THINK OF HOW THIS COULD END ON A HIGHWAY. *TR

WAS INFORMED THAT I WOULD NEED TO TAKE MY ACURA OVER 50 MILES (ONE WAY) FORM FT. COLLINS WHERE I WORK AND LIVE. LEAVE CAR HALF A DAY AND RETURN TO FT. COLLINS. I HAVE TO BELIEVE THAT ACURA AND SAFETY ADMINISTRATION COULD SEE THE HARDSHIP THIS CREATES. WHY CAN'T THEY AUTHORIZE A DEALERSHIP LIKE MARKLEY MOTORS HERE IN FT. COLLINS TO PROVIDE THIS SERVICE. THEIR WAY COST ME TIME AND RESOURCES AND WASTES ENERGY!. IS THIS AN EFFORT TO DISCOURAGE PEOPLE FROM ADDRESSING THEIR PROBLEM? PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF YOU CAN ASSIST. I KNOW THAT MARKLEY MOTORS WORKS ON HONDA. PLEASE HELP! *TR

Mar 15, 2013

Honda is recalling certain model year 2004-2008 Acura TSX vehicles originally sold in, or currently registered in, Connecticut, Delaware, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont, Virginia, West Virginia, Wisconsin and the District of Columbia. In states that use corrosive materials for deicing, driver's footwear may bring in materials that saturate the vehicle's carpeting, which is in contact with the vehicle's engine Electronic Control Unit (ECU). As a result, the ECU case may experience rust or corrosion. This damage may potentially cause the engine to stall.

Consequence & remedy
