Acura (Owner Link) Find out about open recalls on your car!

Ok...I was searching through the Acura site to find out if I can check for recall information on my vehicle and I stumbled upon this. Many of you might already know this, but for those that have just purchased a used car, it could be very helpful.

Here's the site: Acura (Owner Link)

I actually found out the trim and real name of my exterior color

Trim: 2.5 Premium 4 Speed Automatic
Ext. Color: Granite Silver Pearl
Int. Color: Sandstone

My vehicle also came with keyless entry...but I don't have the remote.
Comfort & Convenience
Automatic Climate Control
Acura Music System with eight speakers, AM/FM stereo/cassette, in dash CD player, Dolby Dynamic Noise Reduction (DNR) and anti-theft feature
Power windows and door locks
Cruise Control
Theft-deterrent System
Tilt steering column
Variable-intermittent wipers
Side window defoggers
Remote trunk/fuel-filler-door releases
Dual overhead map light
Lighted trunk, ashtray, cigarette lighter and ignition switch
Front door storage
Dual beverage holder
Passenger's seatback pockets
Digital quartz clock
Keyless Entry System
Power operated moonroof with sliding shade

This is what I don't get though, it says i have heated front seats but i don't.
Seating & Trim
Leather-wrapped steering wheel
Simulated wood-grain console and power window controls
Driver's 8-way power seat with adjustable lumbar support
Heated front seats
Rear seat head rests
Rear seat center armrest with locking trunk pass-through
Rear center console with armrest
Leather-trimmed seats and door panels


And about Recall information. It's been fixed. I even called the dealership and gave them my VIN if it matches. They said I can go in for emissions thing now.

Description 1996-98 BALL JOINT
Date 4/30/1999
Type Safety Recall Campaign
Status Fixed

One thing to keep in mind.. the Acura website isn't always accurate. I've sent them numerous e-mails in the past about fixing a few things (some have been fixed)

But from everything I've ever read, heated leather seats were ONLY on 3.2 TL's.

If someone has a 2.5 with heated seats.. take a picture!!

They don't even have my VIN in their system, so i can't register with it. Doesn't do me much good if they can't even look up a car that they manufactured.
