OK I just bought from a private seller an 04 TSX 6spd with tech package. Has 199k all highway miles. Car is in really clean and in good shape for the mileage and interior is spotless.

I've unfortunately inherited the infamous PCB issue with this car. I called Acura client relations and they would not do anything for me because of the mileage. All the local dealer would do is give me employee cost on the part and labor. I took the offer and now after several days and two PCB's later the issue is STILL NOT FIXED!

Now it's even worse, now my radio won't work at all. No audio coming out whatsoever when before it was JUST the lights that didn't light up but now nothing works. I was able to listen to the radio, play cd's and my navi worked fine before. They are sending out my radio core to diagnose what is wrong with it.

I've never heard of this before and I'm concerned they are going to rack up a bill for me and try to screw me for as long as they can. This has now become a nightmare and I am wondering if anyone has any solid proof or answers to what the heck the problem could be or any recourse I can take? Any help will be greatly appreciated with this issue!

 

Anyone?

 

OK, car has 199K miles - did you really expect Acura to foot the bill? Did you buy the car with this issue (did seller disclose this to you)? My first TSX, an '04, developed this issue before 100K miles and Acura took care of it. Since your audio is not working right after tey installed the new PCB it is now an Acura dealer/service issue. Your service provider needs to fix it at no additional charge to you since they initally diagnosed the problem.
