Under 3K and problems

Any advice...bought a new KBP 07 TL-S and have had it into the shop 3 times. The first was to replace the XM unit, second was that the rear rotors were warped causing a loud noise in reverse. (where the turned the rotors down without replacing, I'm in the process of having them put new ones on). And the third time was a bent rim. Has anyone bent a rim on the TL-S...i never even hit a pot hole, so confused!!! Any input would be great...thinking about calling Acura directly...you don't spend 40K on a car and have problems!!!

Sorry to say that problems do occur. My daughter's new Hemi Grand needed the Sirius replaced, and that was a $47,000 vehicle. Having said that, I'm certain it doesn't ease your mind, but let's get to the bent wheel, which can only happen if someone hit something. Maybe not you, maybe someone that drove the car before you made the purchased, or when someone test drove the vehicle. Like to see what was bent e.g. marks in the rim etc.
The out of spec rear rotors are confusing, meaning not normal, and why would you feel them only in reverse? Even in heavy braking and hard use, the fronts take most of the abuse, but best you can do is let them correct the condition and go on your way. I see no use in calling corporate as the dealer is taking care of the situation, and I must say, it's not something that can't be fixed, unless it reappears, then I'd be concerned.
Good Luck
