My 2004 Acura TL had a recall on power steering fluid leak in spring of 2008 and in December of 2008 I had to get my car repaired for that reason and the Acura dealer never reimbursed me for that expense eventhough it was a recall.

I have owned this 2004 Acura TL since Jan. 2004. It has been at the dealership on at least 4 occasions due to a significant vibration. The vibration is most noticeable at about 60 mph. One can feel and see the steering wheel vibrate. The dealership replaced the tires (at no charge) with less than 20,000 miles due to premature wear. However, the vibration problem has never been corrected. In reviewing web sites it appears the vibration problem I am having is not an isolated incident, but one common to many Acura TL owners. It seems that Honda has an obligation to identify and correct the problem.

Serious vibration in 2004 Acura TL. Vibration in the steering, seats and floor pan. Replaced and rebalanced the tires three times. The vehicle vibrates between the 52 and 58 mph regardless of gear selection. The consumer stated that the vibration is so annoying that he avoids that particular speed range. Michelin xgt Z4's were installed on the vehicle and the vibration continues. The consumer requests information on what to do before initiating the lemon law process. The consumer was told that this problem will most likely cause premature wear of various suspension components and tires.

I purchased a new 2004 Acura TL last December. From the get go, the car has continuously pulled to the left. This car has been taken back 5 times to the dealership, tires replaced and still it pulls to the left. We have notified Acura and a rep. Came in but we were told that when we purchased the car I signed a document releasing Acura from the "lemon law" I also consulted an attorney as well as wave tv 3 troubleshooter and was given this web site to log our complaint. We have all documents pertaining to how many times it has been worked on. This car is very much a lemon. In the first few months the blower for the heat also had to be fixed. Basically the rep. From Acura came here and said there is nothing he could do for us. Needless to say I am angry. This has never happened to me before. And I was not aware that Acura was exempt from ky's lemon law. Please help this car is a hazard for the continous pulling to the left.

While making a right turn the vehicle turned left on its own. The consumer applied the brakes, but the pedal went to the floor and the brakes locked up on the vehicle. This caused the consmer to loose control of the vehicle and hit a curb. Both driver's and passenger side air bags did deploy. The driver had the vehicle towed to the dealer for inspection. The mechanic informed the driver that the control sensor solenoid switch needed replacement. Please fill in additional information.

The vsa (stability control) system on my 2004 Acura TL malfunctioned. The system would cause the right front brake to activate by itself, causing the car to severly swerve to the right. After a half-second or so, the vsa would disengage and the fault indicator would lite up on the dashboard. The Acura dealer was unable to diagnose the problem because vsa fault codes are not stored in the vehicle's memory after the car is restarted and the system automatically resets. This resulted in having to continue to drive the car until the fault re-occured. Eventually, when it happened again, I was able to take the car directly to dealer and they were able to diagnose the car (because we left it running so as not to clear the code). The problem was traced to a yaw rate sensor in the vsa system. Acura should make this information available to dealers. This poses a serious safety problem at highway speeds and there is nothing a driver can do to predict or prevent when this problem will occur. Since my sensor was replaced, the problem has not happened again.
