This can not be true. Those should withstand the temperatures. You probably got an aftermarket one. Does it have the Acura logo? Go file a claim!

You must have a bad wind deflector. I have been on for awhile. Make sure it's a ACURA logo

i have the same problem.. i am pretty sure it is from those carwashes.. the brushes lay on them like crazy... so it puts pressure on it and sags.
