Takata inflators: I am very dissatisfied with how Honda/Acura is handling the recall of the 2014 Acura Tl awd that I am currently leasing. The two options they offered if I accept either will end up costing me more money and putting more cash in their pocket. I have spent hours on the phone being transferred from one department to another 6 times yesterday without satisfaction to my situation and yes I first went to downtown Acura in chicago to discuss my options. The best deal that they could give me was to trade in my 2014 Acura Tl awd which I am paying $539. 99 a month & lease a 2016 Acura fwd for 527. 43 I do not feel this is a fair apples to apples deal. I am currently leasing an awd I do not want to drive an fwd. To they want $569. 57 a mo. For the next three years for an awd. I would have to pay taxes, transfer of title fees ect. Acura is going to make money in this situation leasing me a more expensive vehicle and I am going to loose money. So who would be making out on this deal? Acura of course. Not only on the increased lease amount but when the part is available for the 2014 Acura they will be able to sell it for a pretty penny seeing as how it will be around 2 1/2 years old with only 21,000 miles on it. To be honest I don't even like the looks of the new Acura 2016. The changes that were made are not appealing to me. Option 2 is to give them the Acura 2014 to sit on their lot while they rent me a Toyota corolla while all the while I am still paying $539. 99 a month for an Acura that I can't even drive. I tried trading it in on a Nissan marano only problem they would lose money trying to get me a reasonable lease payment after having to pay off my lease at $5390. 00. As you can see I am stuck between a rock and a hard place. This entire situation excuse my slang. Sucks! I hope there will be a class action suit started against Honda/Acura.
