Vehicle & transaction details vehicle: 2023 Acura Integra | VIN: [xxx] purchaser: [xxx] | authorized rep: [xxx] selling dealer: carvana, llc | delivery date: xxx statement of safety hazard & defect I am filing a formal vehicle safety complaint against carvana, llc for delivering a passenger vehicle in an unroadworthy, dangerous condition. On xxx, carvana delivered the 2023 Acura Integra (VIN: [xxx]). Immediate post-delivery inspection by an authorized repair facility confirmed the vehicle was delivered with four severely worn, defective tires measuring below legal safety thresholds, along with a severe alignment defect. Impact on vehicle control & public safety delivering a vehicle with dangerously worn tires and severe alignment issues directly compromises basic vehicle safety and highway operation: hydroplaning & braking failure: tires worn past safe limits lack water evacuation channels, causing loss of control and extended stopping distances in wet conditions. Tire failure risk: operating tires past wear indicators dramatically increases the risk of high-speed tread separation or sudden blowout. Handling degradation: the severe alignment defect impairs emergency evasive steering and causes unpredictable vehicle pulling. Dealer certification failure carvana explicitly represented this vehicle as having passed a mandatory "150-point inspection" and certified it as roadworthy. Delivering a vehicle with four non-compliant tires demonstrates a major breakdown in basic safety quality control. I request that NHTSA log this complaint, assign an official tracking number, and investigate commercial dealer compliance regarding tire safety standards prior to vehicle delivery. Diagnostic reports and tread depth photos are available upon request. Sincerely, [xxx] (on behalf of [xxx]) [xxx] | [xxx] | [xxx] information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6).
My car’s amplifier died. Now they’re trying to charge me like $2,000. I check online. Other people reported the same complaint coming with heavy price to fix it. Plus if they did replace the amplifier, it’s not granted that it won’t died in 1-3 years again.
The brakes squeak and squeal loudly when the car is cold and reversing. I took it to the Acura dealership that I bought it from to get it looked at. They were able to reproduce the sound and said the sound was coming from the vsa (vehicle stability assist) . They compared it to a "known good vehicle" and said it made the same noise. Essentially the dealer said all cars of similar make and model have this issue and make this noise so no repairs were done or necessary. See attached document.
A drunk driver ran into the back of my car as soon as the light turned green. I just release my break and h9t hit going about 70mph. The airbags never went off at such a great impact. The car was totaled.
The calibration for the blind spot is off, it detects there’s a vehicle in the blind spot and beeps when I try to change lanes although the vehicle is clearly behind my vehicle and is safe to change lanes. Another issue is that on the dash when I change songs sometimes on apple carplay it freezes, it plays a song but the title of the song is the previous song that was playing.
Was driving on highway when the sun roof exploded. Was able to pull over at nearest exit. Called nearest dealer and was told to drive it to dealership where purchased which was around 150 miles away. The glass fell on all occupants of the vehicle but fortunately no one was hurt.
Vehicle only has 6,000 miles and I have an “emissions system problem” along with “rev match disabled” message on my dash. Engine is now performing at a lower power level. Nothing out of the ordinary occurred before this. No error codes prior.
There is a separation from the windshield and the a frame on the drivers side. The car has been in multiple times and the service department cannot fix the problem because they claim it is a manufacturers defect. American Honda is saying that because it is "a manufacturing defect", they are not obligated to fix it and there is no fix available and I have no recourse.
