Thumbs down news about my new 08 TLS

So the other day I get into my car, and the Audio button just underneath the navigation screen which activates the screen to switch from the map to show you what music stations are on and your presets, is no longer working

Ah, er, you know you may have simply changed the parameters, right? You can change it from channel to "type" if you hit the wrong one, you may have inadvertantly disabled them on your own. If that doesn't work you could always join try the "arbitration" another guy is attempting on here (for "rattles" no less? And we wonder why the lawyer's get rich?)

Whoa Dude!!!!.......calm down......it's hard to break a lease...and the car is brand new so give it a chance. They'll fix the electronics....Acura doesn't build the stereo or navi...it's a warranty thing so get it replaced. The TL is a really nice car...so don't give up so fast.

So how exaclty would I break my lease ... I think I just may do it. Not for just the button.. but I dont know... I had 3 Type R's before that I absolutely beat and tracked and never had a button stop working or a rattle in the dash, never mind now in a 36k + car.

so which one best describes your problem?

gay:

1. having or showing a merry, lively mood: gay spirits; gay music.
2. bright or showy: gay colors; gay ornaments.
3. given to or abounding in social or other pleasures: a gay social season.
4. licentious; dissipated; wanton: The baron is a gay old rogue with an eye for the ladies.
5. homosexual.
6. of, indicating, or supporting homosexual interests or issues: a gay organization.

next time lets use another adjective. sorry for the lecture but stuff like this bugs me.

anywho, sorry about the ride, hope it all works out for the best.

then again, beating on your car at a track wudn't really make your buttons stop working would it? so that's irrelevant.

Yay for another tarded newb thread. Good luck on breaking your lease, you must have a lot of money you don't care to keep. Buy a Corolla.

I just found out my steering wheel is a lesbian.

Sounds like you got your first payment and the novelty of a new car wore off really quick. You are kind of shot out of a cannon for some minor thing.

Holy Crap, thats alot of ghey smilies!


BTW, do we have any known gay forum members? I'd hate to offend them in any way although the reference is "ghey" = meaning its geared towards more of mocking RICERS.

Hope nobody is offended by this moronic thread.

Breaking a lease will result in some big penalty charges. Your lease contract that you SIGNED will have all the penalties in black and white. Or you can do what ndabunka said and take it to "arbitration" because of a faulty switch which Acura dos not build.

Good night

one more comment like this in 3G and you are gone

just because you got your ass handed to you in Ramblings doesnt mean you can come over here and say what you want.

Here you get one chance, you just used it.

ok wow, gay is a figure of speech.....what the hell do u guys care if some fag is offended? it's a big time perversion that should not exist....

you are giving them too much support and almost encouriging them to be gay...cuz apperantly there's nothing wrong with that. whoever is concerned about that is probably gay too...

i know i'm prolly gonna get, banned for saying this...but i'm just saying what i think...this country is all about freedom of speech anyways.

so mods, if you wanna ban me/have to ban me, go ahead...but i just think it's stupid that sum1 shud get hammered for using a figure of speech which is not even intended to offend some gay community, but is used as slang with a completely different point.

Thank you, not to mention most of the mods on here dont have anything better to do like maybe screw there wife " or boyfriend" once in a while beside punishing me for excercising my free speech right, that most of our grandfathers fought and or died for. whats next, cant say god in the salute to the flag, cant say christmas anymore, cant have christmas decorations cause it offends 1 percent of the jews in the fucking county, and then before you know it, well the left sided socialistic people on this fourm and country will hand our freedom and safety to the terrorists to be politically correct. FUCK ALL YOU GUYS.

This is exactly why forums are GAY.

Before OnTheJob gets into any more trouble in this thread I'm closing it.

If he doesn't like our forum and the way it works it isn't hard to leave and we can make it easier.

Exclamation Welcome to the Real World

Footnote:

Yes, a lot of our members have said they are gay. But we don't ask the question.

A thinking person should know that any collection of more than 100,000 people is going to have a lot of gay and lesbian components.

It's irrelevant to a website.

If you want to express your views on social, religious, or political issues in a respectful way...... take it over to Religion and Politics in Off Topic.

We don't put up with it here.

Have a nice vacation.
