Electrical Fire

I've had my Type S for two months and last week I took it to the dealer because the SRS light was on and I was told that I had and electrical fire under the dash. Has anyone else had this problem?

Someone reported their Tl-S catching fire while at the dealer. I guess maybe acura has a problem too, or are these all just isolated problems. Hmm, makes you wonder. So far mine is fine. Do you have the TL-S or CL-S

Well that blows my theory out of the water. I figured it might be something with the new TLs , well I guess these are isolated incidents, since no one else has had this issue. Bad luck , but I guess that is what warranty is for. At least you have it back now in one piece
