SAME AS THE OTHER INCIDENTS SUBMITTED BELOW - MY CAR ACCELERATES WHEN I APPLY THE BRAKES. I HAVE TO TAKE MY FOOT OFF OF THE BRAKES AND REAPPLY BEFORE THE CAR REACTS AND STOPS. THIS FAULT OCCURS WHEN I'M SLOWING DOWN AND ALMOST AT A STOP, SO THIS HAS HAPPENED WHEN I HAVE BEEN IN CLOSE PROXIMITY OF OTHER CARS IN FRONT OF ME, PEOPLE IN CROSSWALKS, APPROACHING MY NEIGHBORHOOD GATE, SLOWING DOWN TO MAKE A TURN, SLOWING DOWN WHEN APPROACHING STOP SIGNS - I HAD NO CHOICE BUT TO RUN THE STOP SIGN. THIS HAS HAPPENED 8-9 TIMES. FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED, I THOUGHT IT MIGHT HAVE BEEN MY MISTAKE. AFTER THE 3RD OR 4TH TIME, I WAS SURE IT WAS NOT. I BROUGHT MY CAR BACK TO THE ACURA DEALERSHIP THAT PURCHASED THE CAR FROM. I HAVE TAKEN THE CAR THERE 3 TIMES AND ALL 3 TIMES, AFTER RUNNING INSPECTIONS, I'M TOLD THEY ARE 'UNABLE TO VERIFY CUSTOMER'S CONCERNS' BECAUSE THEY 'CANNOT DUPLICATE THE CONCERN'. THEY GAVE ME MY CAR BACK TO DRIVE. I FEEL EXTREMELY UNSAFE IN MY ACURA.

THE CAR DISPLAYED MULTIPLE ERRORS ON ITS MULTI-INFORMATION DISPLAY. THE ERRORS INCLUDE BRAKE SYSTEM PROBLEM, ABS PROBLEM, ROAD DEPARTURE MITIGATION SYSTEM PROBLEM, AND ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL PROBLEM. THOSE ERROR MESSAGES WENT AWAY ON MY WAY TO ELK GROVE ACURA BUT I WAS ABLE TO RECORD THEM ON MY PHONE. THERE WAS STILL AN ERROR MESSAGE IN THE ACURALINK SYSTEM FOR THE ELECTRIC POWER STEERING THAT I SHOWED THE SERVICE ADVISOR. HE DELETED THE MESSAGE WITHOUT TELLING ME AND SAID THOSE ERRORS ARE CAUSED BY A LOW BATTERY. HE WENT TO TEST THE BATTERY AND IT TESTED FINE SO I WAS TOLD THAT THERE WAS NOTHING TO FIX. HE SENT ME HOME AFTER REFUSE MY REQUEST TO DOCUMENT THE ERRORS WITH ACURA. HE MADE IT LIKE I NEVER BROUGHT THE CAR IN AND THOSE PROBLEMS NEVER EXISTED.

1ST INCIDENT - ON OCT 17TH 2017, ON MY WAY BACK FROM GYM AND THIS IS A STREET DRIVE. I WAS APPROACHING A STOP SIGN WHICH IS ON A SORT OF A HILL. I PRESSED THE BRAKES AND THE CAR ACCELERATED INSTEAT AND I COULD NOT STOP AT THE STOP SIGN. I DID PRESS IT AGAIN HARDER AND THE CAR STOPPED BUT I HAD ALREADY CROSSED THE STOP SIGN BY THEN. I WAS CONFUSED AND SCARED BUT ASSUMED THAT IT WAS MY FAULT AND CONTINUED HOME DRIVING CAREFULLY. 2ND INCIDENT - ON THE SAME DAY ON MY WAY TO WORK, THE EXACT SAME THING HAPPENED AND AGAIN I PRESSED VERY HARD ON THE BRAKES THE SECOND TIME AND THAT HELPED. BY THIS TIME I WAS SURE SOMETHING IS WRONG WITH THE CAR. 3RD INCIDENT - SAME DAY ON MY WAY BACK FROM WORK, THIS TIME I WAS BEING VERY CAREFUL AND RIVING VERY SLOW IN THE RIGHT MOST LANE, THE EXACT SAME THING HAPPENED. I DID NOT DRIVE THE CAR AFTER THAT AND THE CAR IS WITH THE CERRITOS ACURA SERVICE CENTER. NOT SURE IF I CAN DRIVE THAT CAR ANYMORE

WHEN APPLYING THE REAR BRAKES THEY CONSTANTLY SQUEAL VERY LOUDLY. THE DEALERSHIP KEEPS LOOKING INTO THIS AND SAYS ACURA DOESN'T HAVE A SOLUTION FOR THE PROBLEM BECAUSE THEY HAVE NOT RECEIVED ENOUGH COMPLAINTS ABOUT IT YET. SO I AM SUPPOSED TO DRIVE A VEHICLE WITH SQUEALY BRAKES?

"TAKATA RECALL" I WAS INVOLVED IN A WRECK WITH AN 18 WHEELER. I WAS IN THE RIGHT LANE TRAVELING SOUTH ON HWY 59 RIGHT OUTSIDE OF GARRISON, TX AND THE 18 WHEELER WAS IN THE LEFT LANE. THE 18 WHEELER CAME INTO MY LANE HITTING MY REAR DRIVERS SIDE BUMPER. THIS KNOCKED MY VEHICLE OUT OF THE RIGHT LANE AND PERPENDICULAR TO THE LEFT LANE. THEN THE FRONT OF THE 18 WHEELER HIT MY ENTIRE DRIVERS SIDE AND PLOWED MY VEHICLE DOWN THE HIGHWAY A SIGNIFICANT DISTANCE. AFTERWARDS MY CAR WENT INTO A TAIL SPIN. MY VEHICLE STOPPED IN THE MEDIAN LANE FACING SOUTH ON HWY 59 WITH THE HOOD OF MY VEHICLE POINTED INTO THE LEFT NORTHBOUND LANE. THE CRASH REPORT STATES A SPEED OF 75 MPH. MY DRIVERS SIDE AIRBAGS FAILED TO DEPLOY WHEN I WAS STRUCK BY THE 18 WHEELER.

MY 2016 ACURA ILX TRANSMISSION MAKES A "CLUNKING" SOUND WHEN 1) THE ACCELERATOR IS DEPRESSED AFTER SLOWING DOWN; WHILST SLOWING DOWN TO A STOP. SEEMS AS THOUGH THE 8 SPEED AUTO TRANSMISSION IS REMAINING AT TOO HIGH A GEAR AT SLOWER SPEEDS. THE SOUND IS QUITE DISCONCERTING. I HAVE ESCALATED THE ISSUE TO ACURA CORPORATE OFFICE, AND THEIR RESPONSE IS THAT OTHER VEHICLES OF THE SAME MODEL MAKE THE SAME SOUND. REALLY??? IS ACURA JUST WAITING FOR COMPLAINTS OF TRANSMISSIONS OR TORQUE CONVERTERS BLOWING UP BEFORE THEY TAKE APPROPRIATE ACTION?

2016 ACURA ILX 1. BREAKS SQUEAL WHEN COMING TO A STOP. DEALERSHIP STATED THEY REPLACED THE ROTORS WITH A MORE INDUSTRIAL ROTOR. ALTHOUGH THERE IS NO RECALL, THE DEALERSHIP STATED ITS BECOMING A COMMON COMPLAINT FOR THE ILX. SEEMED TO BE WELL FOR A WHILE BUT PROBLEM HAS RESURFACED. 2. BACK WINDOWS MISALIGNED. TOOK TO DEALERSHIP AND PARTS NEEDED TO BE ORDERED TO FIX THE ISSUE. 3. TAKATA INFLATORS. TAKATA SHOULD TAKE RESPONSIBILITY AND PAY FOR A COMPARABLE RENTAL VEHICLE. SAFETY SHOULD BE A TOP PRIORITY CONSIDERING THEY MANUFACTURED A DEFECTIVE PRODUCT AND APPARENTLY DID NOT DO ENOUGH TESTING BEFORE RELEASE. I DON'T BLAME HONDA, I BLAME TAKATA FOR ONLY DOING THE BARE MINIMUM AND BACKING THE CAR DEALERSHIPS INTO A CORNER. NEXT TIME I PURCHASE A VEHICLE, I WILL BE CHECKING THE AIR BAG MANUFACTURER BEFORE I BUY! CAR DEALERSHIP HAS BEEN AMAZING AND HAS WONDERFUL SERVICE!

I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE IN THE MAIL LESS THAN A WEEK AGO FOR THE EXPLODING DANGEROUS AIRBAGS. I TRIED TO BRING MY CAR INTO THE DEALERSHIP OVER THE WEEKEND BUT I WAS TOLD THAT THERE WAS NO "CUSTOMER SERVICE" ON THE WEEKENDS SO I HAD TO DRIVE MY CAR TO WORK ON MONDAY. THE NEXT DAY ON TUESDAY I MISSED A FEW HOURS OF WORK BECAUSE THE DEALERSHIPS RENTAL SERVICE IS ONLY OPEN DURING MY WORKING HOURS. WHEN I TURNED MY CAR IN THEY TOLD ME THAT THEY WON'T COVER THE INSURANCE WHICH MEANS I HAVE TO BUY EXTRA INSURANCE ON THE LOANER CAR. WHY DO I HAVE TO PAY FOR THE EXTRA INSURANCE? ISN'T ACURA RESPONSIBLE FOR THAT? NOW I HAVE TO PAY INSURANCE ON MY ACURA AND THE RENTAL VEHICLE! THIS ISN'T RIGHT AT ALL. I CALLED MY INSURANCE COMPANY TO SEE IF THEY CAN DO A TEMPORARY CHANGE OF VEHICLES AND THEY SAID THAT THEY COULD ONLY DO IT FOR A MAXIMUM OF TWO WEEKS. UNFORTUNATELY, TWO WEEKS WON'T BE ENOUGH TIME SINCE ACURA TOLD ME THAT IT WILL TAKE UP TO TWO MONTHS FOR MY AIRBAG TO BE FIXED. I DON'T THINK ANYONE WHO HAS A RECALL FOR THAT LONG PERIOD OF TIME SHOULD BE FORCED TO PAY FOR THE INSURANCE FOR A RENTAL CAR - THAT IS ACURA'S RESPONSIBILITY.

I GOT THE SAFETY RECALL FOR THE AIBAGS ON WEDENESDAY AND WENT TO THE CERRITOS ACURA DEALER TO DISCUSS MY NEEDS AND CONCERNS TO THIS MATTER. WHAT THEY WERE ABLE TO DO WAS SET ME UP IN A RENTAL CAR THROUGH ENTERPRISE. THE RENTAL CAR PROVIDED TO ME WAS A 2016 HYUDAI SONATA STD MODEL. YES, IT WAS A STANDARD MODEL ONLY. I PURCHASED MY 2016 ACURA ILX WITH ASPEC PCKG WHICH INCLUDES MOONROOF, UPGRADED ALLOY WHEELS AND MY HEATED SEATS, MY TOUCHSCREEN. ALL THESE FEATURES I AM MISSING OUT ON THIS HYUNDAI I WAS REPLACED MEANWHILE PARTS ARE AVAILABLE. IT IS AN ICONVENIENCE FOR ME SINCE I AM PAYING $550 A MONTH FOR MY CAR PAYMENT AND I HAVE TO BE DRIVING THIS 2016 HYUNDAI SONATA THAT DOES NOT EVEN HAVE A BACK UP CAMERA? THIS IS UNFAIR AND UNREASONABLE!! THIS IS A MAJOR DOWNGRADE FOR ME AND I WILL TAKE THIS INTO MY OWN MATTERS TO MAKE IT KNOWN THAT I AM A VERY UNHAPPY CUSTOMER.
