My battery would be dead if I didn't drive my car every day. Then I found out there is a parasitic drain on the battery from a faulty hands-free bluetooth module. I watched a video then disconnected mine myself, problem solved. I've used a headlight restoration kit because the lights are yellow and they have spider-cracks all in them, it really affects the brightness of the light itself. The dashboard is cracked beyond repair and I'm terrified of getting into a wreck in my car, the dash would become shrapnel!.
The car is been sitting for about 4 days and the battery is dead again. This has been the issue since I bought the car.

Internet research proved that the problem is with hands free system and Acura knows about the problem for long but has done nothing to fix it.
