i have to say im dissapointed by the quality of this acura, cars at this price should be giving us hapiness and satisfaction, not irks and irritation!!!

i have a rear deck lid that makes a rattling sound when you give it a thump, the rattling sound seems to come from the speakers esp the subwoofer. this rattling sound can be heard when closing the doors, it's like a thin layer of steel vibrating...does any1 has this too??

also some rattling by the moonroof...another annoying problem

and lastly some occasional rattles from the glove box and b-pillar

btw, the fit of the body panels is another letdown from acura...misaligned hood, fenders and bumpers not flush...

this is the least i expected from acura...now i would think twice to buy another acura product

Do you try to do it yourself since stupid dealers are unable to handle these issues. Someone seemed to put the foam-like stuff to make it stop. I know you may already read them all.

Rear deck vibrates with sub-woofers


Moonroof deflector rattle has been talked too.

The rattle behind the glove box will be fixable.

All you said is the common but painful issue now, but unforunately, most of dealers lack abilities to fix them... Try DIY.

I also hate Acura's attitude and not-well trained dealers. Maybe we give Acura too good sale numbers.


PS. I put links on in case other ppl like to know what we're talking about...

For the rear panel vibration, I just found out that it was what was causing a lot of my rattle noises. I had the hardest time identifying it because I didn't hear the rattle during music play (like most other people's cars), only during driving.

Anyway, my rear panel seems to have a little grill thing at the very back where you would normally shove the foam. How are you guys getting around this?

I hope the dealers I go to have the ability to fix this problem; otherwise I will be driven nuts.
