Hi Everyone... Just got my new 2006 Artic Blue with Navi and I love the bluetooth -- problem is a couple mornings I have conference calls while I am driving with my baby. I only need to talk a little and don't want everyone to hear him the whole time. Is there a way to mute??? I am using a cingular nokia 6102i phone. |

Replying to: del3 (Aug 21, 2006 7:18 pm) It all started November 06. It happened 5 times within a month. I took it to south coast acura a month ago, they said nothing wrong w/ it and unless i know which part is wrong they can't do anything about it. Come on, if i knew which part is wrong, i wouldn't need to take the car back to dealer. Same thing happened again at 2 A.M. so I leave the car there didnt try to restart it again coz the south coast acura service advicer told me not to just tow it to the dealer. I did what he said, I had the car tow to Thomas Acura. Talked to service advicer name Chris Martin. They run the same test again as south coast acura, the result is the same. everything is fine nothing wrong w/ my car. Chris said it's NORMAL for a TSX to take a longer time to start up. If you leave the car set there for 1~2 days when you tried to start up, you will have to hold the key a little longer, sometimes it even take up to 15~20 seconds. I'm not good with cars but I know for sure it's not right to take 15~20 second to start up a car so I called the selling dealer. The service advicer whom I talked to was nice, but since I live so far from there, he said I should take it to the cloest dealer so I call Thomas Acura again and I talk to the same service advicer. He sounds like he doesn't want me to take the car in to do futher check up and he even said I can go in to the dealer now and he will start up any NEW or USED car right infront of me to show me it's NORMAL to take a longer time to start up the car. When I told him I would like to make an appointment to get a futher check up for my car and also get a loaner's car, he wouldn't even tell me when is the next available time. Is it normal like this, I know it's not but how come they can't find out the problem, that I have to hold the key a little longer when I start up my car? it only has 14000 miles on it. I bought it brand NEW.  and don't go to Thomas Acura, if you wanna go dont get the service advicer name Chris Martin. Not a happy experience with him.

I couldn't prove that it was a Lemon because I couldn't record the problem on tape like the attorney had suggested. I tell all my friends DO NOT BUY ACURA!!! My new car was suppose to be my baby but it was a big let down. Another friend just bought the MDX and is having issues already. Save money and buy a LEXUS instead, I wish I did. I hope this posts helps! You have to make them take you seriously if not talk to the Manager and keep going up the chain of command.

Replying to: qtmochi (Feb 26, 2007 3:17 pm) From my limited and admittedly anecdotal experience with my own '04, I've never had this problem. The OEM battery is kind of weak for the car, but the car always cranks the first time, and my car routinely sits for five days at a time due to my having access to a company vehicle. Hope you are able to resolve your problem. |
