2011 Acura TSX Complaints

VEHICLE IS EXPERIENCING A HIGH OIL CONSUMPTION ISSUE. EVERY 1000 MILES IT'S REQUIRED ONE QUART OF OIL TO BE ADDED TO THE OIL FILLER. ACURA HAS A WARRANTY EXTENSION FOR THIS KNOW ISSUE TO 8 YEARS OR 125,000 MILES FROM THE ORIGINAL DATE OF SERVICE, WHICHEVER COMES FIRST. MY VEHICLE WAS NOTICED TO HAVE THIS PROBLEM AT 83,000 MILES AND JUST UNDER 9 YEARS OF SERVICE. ACURA CUSTOMER RELATIONS WAS CONTACTED BUT REFUSED TO SERVICE MY VEHICLE DUE TO LACK OF SERVICE AT THEIR DEALERSHIP EVEN THOUGH I HAVE RECORDS OF MAKING MY SYNTHETIC OIL CHANGES AND OTHER REPAIRS AT AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC SHOP.

GOT MY EPS SYSTEM REPLACED ABOUT 1 YEARS AGO PAID 1300 TO FIX NOW IT SEEMS TO BE A KNOWN ISSUE RECENTLY MY STEERING GETS HARD SOME DAYS AND OTHER DAYS ITS SMOOTH DONT KNOW WHAT TO DO I CANT AFFORD ANOTHER 1300 FOR SOMETHING THAT IS KNOW TO BE FAILING

STEERING SYSTEM FAILS INTERMITTENTLY. EPS WARNING LIGHT COMES ON AND THE CAR BECOMES UNCONTROLLABLE IN THE HIGHWAY AND VERY HARD TO MANEUVER IN THE PARKING LOT. THIS IS EXTREMELY SCARY SITUATION. I WAS GLAD I WAS ABLE TO EXIT THE FREEWAY AND STOP THE CAR AT A SAFE LOCATION. ELECTRONIC POWER STEERING MODULE (EPS) IS FAILING.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 ACURA TSX. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 67 MPH, THE POWER STEERING SEIZED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT AN APPOINTMENT WAS PENDING WITH HENDRICK ACURA (LOCATED AT 6824 E INDEPENDENCE BLVD, CHARLOTTE, NC 28227, (980) 242-5667). THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 79,000. PIIR=Y.

I HAVE A 2011 ACURA TSX. THE ELECTRONIC POWER STEERING KEEPS MALFUNCTIONING WHILE DRIVING IN MOVING TRAFFIC. IT APPEARS THE ELECTRIC POWER STEERING (EPS) MODULE IS MALFUNCTIONING. THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH THIS MODEL ACURA. ACURA IS WELL AWARE OF THIS ISSUE, YET HAS DONE NOTHING TO REMEDY THIS SAFETY ISSUE. THERE ARE HUNDREDS (IF NOT THOUSANDS) OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE EPS. ACURA STILL HAS NOT ISSUED A RECALL. THIS IS A SERIOUS (AND DANGEROUS) PROBLEM. THE STEERING CAN JUST WORKING WITHOUT NOTICE AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS MAKING THE CAR UNCONTROLLABLE. WILL IT COST SOMEONE'S LIFE BEFORE ACURA ISSUES A RECALL FOR THIS KNOWN PROBLEM WITH THEIR VEHICLE? IF ACURA DOES NOT FIX THIS PROBLEM, SOMEONE WILL GET KILLED DRIVING THEIR ACURA, AND BY THEN IT WILL BE TOO LATE.
