Ever since i got my car i have had so many problems with it. Here is a short list of my problems. Seat moves. Headlight problems. Trunk problems. Car has a severe pull to the right. if i said all the problems we would be here all day. My car has been in the shop to many times. The dealership tries to fix the problems only to f*** more things. I will never get another japanese car. They are the wrost. I am seriously considering the 2005 Mercedes c230 sedan. That car is so tight and beutifully. It makes the TSX look and feel like a kia.

soopa

yeah mercedes are perfect

Bahnstormer

If reliability is your number one priority, stay clear of Mercedes.

accsuperstar

its true. japanese cars are the wrost

dom

Especially Lexus, those teh sux.

My father has an E500 and has not had one problem yet. They have really cleaned up there act, its much better then acura. I think everyone here has had to bring there car in for something. Jap is crap.

dom

Then how do explain JD Pow rankings where Honda/Toyota are tops and MB languishes near the bottom?

EDIT: Consistently, BTW.

Trolling around again are we justinnum..

justinnum1

I dont car about jd b.s. Oviously my car does not qualify under that rating. german is the way to go. The germans look at cars as an enjoyment, not like the rest of the world that looks at a car as a form of transportaion. Why do german cars win most of the comparison tests in the magazenes?
jap is crap

I'm sorry that you experienced so many problems with your TSX and I can understand why you feel the way you do. But to make genralizations based on your experience is a tad too simplistic. After all, if your girl cheats on you does that mean that all women cheat? Jap is not crap in this case. In fact the JD Power rankings and the just released reliability rankings would indicate just the opposite. So, yes, "your" TSX is a horrible car but THE TSX is not.

robert_tsxgeek

where, which dealer you bought that POS TSX from ?

justinnum1

rick case acura, Supposevly the worlds larget acura dealer

ricecake

Is this the engrish thread? Everyone here has been dropping articles left and right, and turning adjectives into adverbs. I would hesitate to make generalizations based on experiences with single units with one individual make or model, but that is my personal 2 cents.

SAZABI

yup, I totally agree!!
Japanese car sux, b/c you get only like 1 or 2 outta 10 with problems ---> lack of consistency.
MB or BMW, gurantee 9 outta 10. This is the way to go, so the buyer knows what to expect from what they are paying for.

MUHAHHAHAHAHA
go MB go!
go BMW go!
go Audi go!

I won't quibble over your specific complaints, but many states have "lemon laws" to cover situations where the car has something that (in typical language) significantly impairs its use and that cannot be resolved within a certain number of trips to the dealer.

Generally, you need to act sooner rather than later if you want any relief provided by one of these statutes.

dom

I did'nt remember him as a troll. Obviously I was wrong.

dabuda

you're right again! those Car & Driver editiors that picked the top 10 for 2004 must've lacked this spectacular insight you seem to have about jap cars

TSXforme

Finally...there is someone else who thinks that some of these posts can be difficult to read.

dabuda

well, some us grew up around engrish...

robert_tsxgeek

Kid...your 16 & your parents bought you the car right ?

Your complaints may be toatlly legit....not flaming ya but....
I wonder how you've been driving the car....maybe you're just bitching 'cause you REALLY
wanted a bimmer but your parent disappointed you & got you a Jap?
Maybre you shoulda have daddy bring the car in to the dealer & scream hell....

TSXforme

I don't necessarily agree with this. Car and Driver do not judge the 10 best cars based on long term reliability.

If reliability is a criteria, then I could provide the argument that the majority of the 10 best "winners" should not be on the 10 best list. Many of the cars that made the list were new models.

jlukja

Make that two. But, I see it so often that I figured it pointless to even comment on it. I guess it just comes with the territory.

TSXforme

really...what country is engrish located in?

dabuda

exactly, i was pointing out the C&D Top 10 NOT for reliability and neither was justinnumwateva. he was saying "The germans look at cars as an enjoyment, not like the rest of the world that looks at a car as a form of transportaion. " The C&D Top 10 factor in enjoyment in their evaluation as well, and guess what? there are some jap cars on that list

TSX 'R' US

So....if he picks up a German car...and it rattles/problems...what's next in line? American cars?
I think you just got a bad one out of the bunch...

TSXChef

I think it's around the corner between wrost & beutifully

lol "wha-chu-talkn-bout-willis!"

dom

If C&D looked at reliability for their Top 10 how would you explain the Ford Focus?

That list is all about the car, not about its reliability.

jlukja

I think it'll be a Buick.

sauceman

I just found this thread. Justinnum, are you a reincarnation of Crazytree?

At any rate, you should learn to put things into perspective if you ever wish to retain some sort of credibility, especially here.

interesting that justinnum's first thread was this:

pwned.

I liked his other comment of taking the sun visor off his 911 and using it in his TSX....

majormojo

In Engrand, of course. I wonder how long it will be before one will be able to get some second language cont. ed credits for webspeak. I find a lot of messages here hard to read too. (moreso lately - d@mn noobs?)

Maybe justinnum's a Nazi spy.

Die Bart Die.

I prefer jingrish to engrish.

it's a multi-country type of language...but basically i believe it's anywhere where English is a Second Language...there have even been some sightings here in the US

I reary reary rike engrish and engrish.com!!!!! I'm lucky enough to hear it all the time.

fun time! let's break up this mess.
you could've used a comma in there.
could've used a colon in there.
i would hope so.
not into specifics huh?
refer to bitchy sarcasm above.
that's what happens when you turn the steering wheel clockwise. oh wait, that's after you let go of the wheel, right? (see how i spelled "wheel" little troll?)
i've got time to spare. for some of us, the forum is all we have at work to keep us "adults" sane.
"too", justin. it's "too".
they must be really horny over there.
i'm sure the japanese appreciate that.
the japanese or the car? make up your mind!
you poor, misguided soul. well, not poor. maybe spoiled to a fault, though.
too easy....
i'm guessing you've never driven a kia. after all, kias are what kids who aren't spoiled by daddy's money drive. oh look, my neighbor has a porsche and another has a hummer. yay for me!

damned trolls.....kids can be so stupid.
