My dealer said that rattles are a "sign of a tight, well built car and not to let anyone tell me otherwise". Can you believe that??????

That's the biggest BS I've ever heard!

So.....does that mean that the other Acura lines (RL for example) are loose and built poorly?

Maybe it's true, but I doubt it. I stayed at a nice hotel in the Denver area and they had a complimentary driving service to take you places. The car was a new Mercedes S430 - a VERY nice car. Sitting in the back seat I could hear several rattles.

i would have kicked him in the nuts for a statement like that

You need a new dealer.

You shouldve told him that "your wife's sign of tightness now explains her well built." :fingerfawk:

Just curious what dealer it was

If you put things together very tightly in the car, they may squeak when temp is up/down 30 degrees and the car is moving on uneven surface/conditions. Whatever Acura dealership says, Acura factory/design department should use the good materials and put the enough insulation between each part, and make sure they're firm and flexible.


When your dealer tells you "sign of a tight", yes, they just confessed themselves to a fail in building and assembling cars due to whatever reasons they don't want to tell you.

I'm sure you feel that way many times.

That is probably the funniest statement I've heard today. I want the guy's email address to personally thank him for making such an ass out of himself.

TBone2004

that guy is talking out his rattling ass!

Nodoze2004

Was that statement made before or after you had given him your money??

dtrose

In the big picture, does it really matter?

I just don't get why people who don't know something simply admit they don't know it and get on with life.

Cdn04TL

ask a dumb question get a dumb answer......enough with the rattles !!!

eaRL

Yes. I believe he would tell you the car can cure cancer if he thinks you might buy one. This is bull$hit. I guess the new Carrera GT has rattles from one end to the other.

hopsterguy

Oh man.... Then I guess that Yugo I drove once was an incredibly built car!!! Heck, the chevette was almost as "good" as that!

And I guess my Maxima really is built like crap.

Did he say that with a straight face? Damn, gotta give him credit, my response to him would be to put on boots when he is spewing out so much shit.

Crap, I must have gotten one of the bad ones with no rattles, well according to your dealer. Thats it, I want a refund.

Fool.
