"Thank you for selecting a new Acura vehicle..." WTF???
I just got a letter from Acura today thanking me for selecting a new Acura vehicle. It had two Roadside Assistance cards in it to keep in your wallet.
Now, this wouldn't be unusual except I purchased my car 05/02/2000 and it even has that date on the card.
So umm.... why did it take them a year to get me this card? Has this happened to anyone else? Or was I supposed to get this card right away?

I got my car in March 2000 and just got the same letter as you yesterday. Better late than never, I guess.

(Who else could completely screw-up a CAI install and ding the front fender of my car after I made the service manager go around every inch of my car to see it didn't have a scratch on it...)

I bought my CLS in Aug 2000 and had to call Acura for the card in Feb. 2001. A month later I got the card, but with the wrong purchase date. Called Acura again, and got the card a month later with the correct purchase date. My contact person Christina 1 800 833 5500 - 3042.
