Im debating buying a TSX at another dealer 100 miles away from my home(i do have a acura dealer in my town), im afraid if i do if something happens and i need to take the car into my local dealer i wont be able to get a loaner?

Any ideas on if that is true or not?

 

That depends on the dealer and if you're concerned about it, you should ask them. FWIW, I service my car at a different dealer than where I purchased it, and they give me loaners no problem. Other people have had different experiences, though.

 

i've gotten loaners from every dealer i didn't buy my car from

 

Being able to get loaners is a part of being an Acura owner I believe. It shouldn't matter where you bought the car from.

 

It better be -- I'm buying my TSX in Jax, and I'll be living in Orlando. The sales guy did say that everyone gets the TLC package and acura amenities, no matter where they got the car. He said I get some card or id thing that tells them i get it.... anyone just get an 06 with the details on how the ownership perks work?

 

Yeah, you get two cards (I guess one for driver 1, and the other for driver 2). The descriptions is kinda vague/generic. You can find out info by going to acura.com and clicking on "ownership experience"

Buying an acura is like joining a country club or something. You automatically join an exclusive club. Your car's driver's window will have a sticker with the number for TLC on it.

I think it lasts for 4 years? I got my 06 TSX a month ago, and I probably got the cards two weeks ago...

 

Any Acura service department will perform warranty work on any Acura, and they should all provide a loaner for any nontrivial service, if you make an appointment so they can reserve one for you.

 

yea, you SHOULD be able to get a loaner from any dealer you go to that is servicing your car. The only exception is that most dont give out loaners for oil changes though.

 

I bought my TSX at a dealership 120 miles away. There are many dealerships closer. When I called my local dealership to make an appointment for service the service advisor asked me when I wanted to bring it in. I told him that it depended on the availability of a loaner. He scheduled me for when they had a loaner available. I've taken it to the local dealer for service (and the trunk harness recall) and the fact that I didn't buy it there never came up.
