Exclamation WARNING - Fake TSB notices!!!

Not certain where this goes but since I got one of these for my 2004 Acura TL I figured I'd throw this into this forum to warn others. There are fradulent companies attempting to use TSB's as their "hook" to get you to give them money. The post card I recently got was addressed as having come from the "Vehicle Notification Dept. Dealer Services Division". Which is in fact nothing more than an apparent attempt to solicit your good hard-earned cash in what likely (based on their sales tatctics) is NOT a legitimate Warranty company for these cars (nor likely any cars). I checked out the phone number (1-800-231-8748) first before calling and found the following thread...

I personally think marketing tactics like this are illegally deceptive in their approach (Read this weblink to hear how they treat callers). Hope this helps others who may have gotten these types of notices.

The Honda dealer from which we bought an Odyssey uses a postcard that suggests we contact [dealer name] to make sure that the vehicle is not subject to recalls, etc., while both it and the Acura dealership send "service due" postcards.
All such postcards go immediately into the trash can.
