I can only think the temperature of the interior was really hot and as i pressed my handbrake down it chipped off.






Any solutions?

Colin

Time to trade that junker in.... seriously it's warranty.

mvidal6

Lol that incident just loss me about a $1000 on trade in value

Colin

LOL, while you're at it, complain about the faux chrome delaminating.

Should be covered under warranty no?

mvidal6

So it wouldn't hurt to try and bitch to the dealer

Any further away shots that show the entire handbrake? How did you do that with your finger? Are you a terminator?

Colin

No bitching is required, just take it in.

mvidal6

Hahahaha noooo the handbrake was up higher than usual and i pressed hard with my thumb to pull it down

mmmm hmmmmmm..... SUUUUUUUURE...... PROBABLY you never messed around with it and tried e-brake handle drifting right? NEVER tried that right? MMMMM HHHMMMMMM........

Just take it to the dealer and have it fixed under warranty. Acting like a d-bag when you take it in to the service department probably wont get you very far.

the ILX is made of cheap material?!

As others have said, no need to bitch, just ask them to fix/replace under warranty. Your car is a 2015, I'm having a hard time seeing them giving you any hassles.

The only time I've ever seen that happen is when someone was using the ebrake for... uh... personal reasons.

Will be taking this to the dealership today, I called my salesman and let him know and he personally went out of his way for me and went to one of the Designs rep of Acura and let him know that my car is fairly new and this happened as one of the factory flaw of the ILX. He quoted me up to $300 for this but as a courtesy he would replace this today. Also weird how my domelights on my car never worked when it came off the lot, they will fix that today too.

Also if this happens to any others, you wont be covered. Probably until this becomes a recall. Unless your dealer was as awesome as mine or your car is new.

mvidal6

oh so turns out the dome light was turned off on the front lol there was a switch to enable it. Noob fail

Also lame I was going to get a loaner car but I'm 18... Have to be 21 was going to be a white ILX which I wanted since day one and the day I bought the black someone just took the white.

I still don't understand how you broke the button. I'd go on a limb and say I don't think anyone else will see that issue.

NBP04TL4ME

And I really don't see anyway how it wouldn't be covered under warranty. $300 for repair out of warranty - maybe, but who cares if it's covered??

Is that a fucking nipple on the reflection??
