Description of the problem | Centre stack lights out (radio, heater/ac unit) according to internet research many other 2004 and 2005 tsx owners are experiencing this problem. The problem appears to be a known defect in the printed circut board. Although acura had issued a service bulletin, and supposedly increased warrenty period fto 100k or 7 years, there was no notification to owners. My 2004 tsx begun experiencing the problem at 123k, so i'm out of warranty, and will most likly have to fork over $2,400 to have the center stack replaced. The nhtsa needs to investigate this matter and force acura to replace for free as the probelm appears to present itself shortly after the warranty period. |
