problem #2

MDX

  • 15,000 miles
I had leak in my passenger side rear tire. When changing I noticed the spare is attached to the under carriage of my vehicle. I think this poses a safety hazard because over time because of weather the hardware that anchors the tire could fail. If that happens the tire could come lose causing an accident. Acura need to reassses the placement of their spare tire.
