Getting Frustrated

Went to the dealer had some rattles fixed in the rear speaker shelf...after 3 attempts to have the same problem fixed....replaced my navigation screen for the second time (dead pixel) and I complained about the sqeaking brakes. They said they took the front brakes apart and lube'd the parts up and put it back together...who knows if it will work. This was the first they had heard about the sqeak problem from the brembos. Oh and also they replaced my amp as I was getting engine noise thru the left front tweater...anyone else having as many problems as I am am I just one unlucky person.

Looking at Consumer Reports the TL scored 2 out of 5 stars. Hopefully Honda read this too and sees people ARE aware of these issues and stop trying to sweep them under the rug. Pitiful for a 35k car.

how many miles do you have on th TL? my breaks squeaked for like the first 5K miles or so. it will go away with time. there isn't anything that they can really lube that will fix the problem.
