Cracked leather and window regulator

I just passed my warranty when I noticed that there was a crack in the front driver seat leather on the bottom portion that faces the front of the car. I also started noticing a noise from the driver window. Dealership checked it and said it was the window regulator. I was at 66K Km when I took it in...i forgot it was a 3 year 60K warranty. I had noticed the problem a little prior to the 60K mark this summer but was working too much to take it in. Anyways, the dealership said it would be close to $815 total and the asked me to call customer care because it was out of warranty to see if we could have it done under good will. I got a response back from honda saying they would cover 1/3 of cost, the dealership another third and then I would pay the remaining third (around $272cdn).
Sounds like a decent compromise to me, what do you guys think?

Honda should pay for it all. I had a bad window regulator in my TL, too, and I've read about it so apparently it's not an isolated incident.

Honda should pay it all my friend, since your just over k. If its the same dealership you goto for service push them a little and they should take care of it. PM me you want another option.

Take what your can get. Your lucky they are covering anything. Acura has been really bad about "goodwill" out of warranty things the last few years.

Yea, I would take the deal and run. I mean you had a contract and it ended. I mean thats nice of them to offer you this deal.

You think Acura bad at goodwill? Go buy a mercedes and you'll find out about no goodwill , and laugh in your face
