I owned a 05 honda civic ex-se, bought new, that was nothing but one problem after another. I sold it-great resale. My mother's new accord had to a dead battery that was replaced after it would not start (even with jumper cables) and had to be towed to the dealer. Our 05 hyundai elantra gt, bought at the same time as the honda, has been excellent after almost 80,000 problem free miles. My 06 tsx is also excellent despite the odometer that looks distorted at times. It has almost 58,000 problem free miles.

I did not have the problem when I drove a loaner 09 TSX. Turing head-lights on might solve the problem. I drive my 05 TSX with head-lights always on.

I have a 2009 TSX without the navigation, so it is not a problem for me. It only happen when the sun hit the dash board at a certain angle. Because I don't look at that screen much, not a problem for me. A antiglare film should fix the problem

"Turing head-lights on might solve the problem" Perhaps, although I didn't try that. However, the TSX now has fully automatic headlights, so I would hate to lose the advantage of that by turning the lights to "on" all the time. (Would the lights still turn off automatically if they were turned to the "on" position?)

I had an 09 TSX for a few days while my 07 TL was in the shop and found the glare on the display was so bad it was readable much less than 50% of the time we were in the car during the day time. I let the local Acura dealership and Acura USA know that we considered replacing our 1999 TL with an 09 TSX but until this is fixed we would never consider purchasing one. There is simply no excuse for this obvious a problem in this class of car. The local dealer admitted they had gotten a lot of complaints in a very short time about this. Their only quick solution was to completely remove the outer plastic screen until a permanent solution is released. The didn't have any with the nav system to compare but said it too has a glare problem.
