OK, its been 2 years already and I can honestly say Im not totally satisfied with this car.
@2 months, the mudguard kinda fell off but they redrilled holes and put it back on
@5 months i realized the inside weather stripping on the right back door was coming off but they ordered a new part and put it on, although it still doesn't look perfect
Currently, I'm assuming its my warped ass rotors causing it to shake like hell on the highway when i brake (but this has been happening for a few months now, probably since 15k miles). Another trip to the dealer.

NOW yesterday I noticed this.... (yes i feel like a shmuck for not noticing it for two years, but maybe this recently happened... yeah right)

I noticed yesterday, whatever black film they used to laminate the door is either bubbling up or it looks like it was pushed up when the car door was being manufactured. Anyone think this would fall into something my warranty would fix? Its at the very top of the driver door right before it hits the vertical part.
Anyone else see this on their driver door?

that's a common problem. I had the door molding bubbling up in all my doors. Been to the dealers like 3 times just to fix that. It is covered under warranty so get it done during your next service.

Sounds like this is your problem...



Don't worry...this is a warranty item. I had all 4 doors striped and painted for free.

this is me

damg that looks pretty bad.

I had the same problem. Noticed it after 2 months of purchase. Dealer fixed it when I brought the car in for an oil change.

how long does this take to fix? an hour or two or do you have to leave it with them for a day?

When I bought my car, it was shipped that way with that bubbling on my rear passenger door. It's no prob though, Acura will fix it under waranty with no questions asked!!

You'll have to drop your car off for a few days. Instead of applying another piece of adhesive, the are actually painting the surface. Which means the paint will need time to cure properly...under their supervision. They'll provide you with a loaner though. I had all four doors repainted. Looks really nice and shiny.

Not sure how long the actual job took. I dropped my car off for an oil change at 8am. Drove off with a loaner and picked it up by noon. Don't think think it takes too long.

Ohhhh... ok great! I have the same problem on my 99. Makes me mad. Although mines out of warranty, so I guess I'll wait until I have nothing else to spend money on!
