A person who doesn't search, doesn't get the benefit of full detailed response

My 2012 has speaker problems, fixed under warranty.
My 2012 has windshield surround problem, fixed under warranty.

The best part is if you go under Problems and Fixes there is a sticky with EVERY TSX issue and solution. Idiots don't even look...

I am not sure about the no warranty, but my dealer had the local glass company come and do it at the dealership.

My dealer ordered the side garnish (body color piece).

So you can buy that from dealer, and take it to an auto glass place, and do it?

Yeah my dealership used my existing molding as it didn't fall off completely; it was just starting to come off. They used some sort of adhesive/silicone and stuck the molding back on, and held it down with painter's tape for 24 hours.

Interesting. Mine was slowly coming off too. Didn't fall off. But dealership ordered new one, replaced it.

Put the "old one" in my pass seat for me to take home.

THey did the same with my steering wheel. When I asked for it to be replaced, they asked if I want my old one back.

Guess that might be dealership specific.

Could be. My dealership is amazing. Everything I asked for, they just do it warranty, no questions asked.

I deal with BMW, Lotus, Lexus dealer. And never have I previously seen an Acura dealer this good (both in service, quality, and no questions asked work for a super anal owner like me).

Really made my wagon ownership more enjoyable.

Sometimes a dealer makes all the difference.

Well, now that you have an extra steering wheel, you can try this prank:


Kidding... don't do it. Just fun to watch.
