Wheel Problems of Acura TLX

Ok I purchased this vehicle in March of 2024 by may I started getting a vibration at highway speeds in front of vehicle. . . I brought to dealer and they told me there is a plastic peice broken on both front wheels it's inside you can not see it when tire is on . . . The dealer told me they were using my rim and tire coverage I purchased extra when I bought the car . . . I told them that's road hazzard I didn't hit anything they used it anyway . . . I get the car back 3 weeks later vibration again this time in the back I bring it back in they tell me same issue as the front the sound deadner broke in bother wheels again no damage on outside of rim and I never hit anything I told them go through warranty they told me there rep said use the road hazzard . . . . I argued and called corporate. . . . Honda corp made a claim number said they would call my dealership but instead just called the rep and of course he said use road hazzard . . . . So they did now I have 4 brand new wheels same ones . . . . Not sure if this will happen again with new 1s but I have met few other people on the internet with same exact prob . . . My opinion is its a manufacturer defect in the wheels or some of the wheels and Acura/Honda is trying to bury it to avoid a safety recall . . . . The more people they get to use rim and tire the more this goes away and this is a serious safety issue as the rims when they break destroy the inside of the tire and if causes a blowout on the highway could end up in severe injury or death. . . . Someone needs to go after them . . . .

On may 11, 2024, while driving my 2017 Acura Tlx on a local city street, multiple dashboard lights suddenly came on. Since that time these lights began to come back on more frequent and often will go into a limp mode. I have had the vehicle inspected at my local Acura dealership only to be told that the vehicles rear paws actuators and control unit need to be replaced at a cost of around $8,000. They also informed me that a recall for this issue was only for the 2015 Tlx and rlx models but there could be a recall for my model year at some future date. I find this to be unacceptable as I have found out there are multiple instances of this same issue happening with many other Acura owners.

The vehicle has rear steering paws. When vehicle was on a tire shop lift the rear suspension inspected. The rear wheels have side to side play. No up and down movement though. Feel like a bad wheel bearing when moving side to side. The rear actuators on both sides move. Dealer said normal. My car shakes all the time. Dealer said normal. People on Acura forum. Said experiencing same problem. If they move the car in s going to shake. I don't feel safe. Acura won't do anything. Car is still under warranty. Only 40,000 on car.

Excessive vibrations above 70mph. Brought back to dealership over 10 times and told the same thing over. They are unable to duplicate the issue since their technicians are unable to test drive over 55mph speed limit. Was also informed by a sales rep that this is a known issue.

Vehicle has a vibration that shakes passenger seat between 65-75 mph. Seems to be a safety issue and occurs every time the vehicle is at the speed listed.

Purchased a brand new vehicle in September'15 and since day one I have been experiencing vibrations during highway commute. The car has been serviced 5 times so far the vibration has actually been made far worse then what they used to be. The seats, the seat buckle, even my child car seat vibrates/shakes when driving. The vibration can be felt all over the body when driving. The vibration is soo bad now, that the car is unsafe to drive on a highway.

Case : b012015060 5/28- test drove car up to 55mph. Purchased car 5/28/15 around 9:30pm. On test drive and during singing, I was assured that this was a great riding car. Vibration as a standard feature - no one told me, it is not advertised on the internet or in the spec of the car and it is not in the manual. I did not agree to purchase a vibrating/poor shifting car, I agreed on a regular riding car that shifts smoothly. (not one with uncontrollable vibration). Test drove car up to 55mph. Purchased car 5/28/15. Car was ready to pick up 6-2-15. Background- test drove with 3 miles on the car. Received from dealer up had 20 miles on. 6/2 - 8pm go to dealer to receive car. Dealer forgot to transfer my plates. Dealer (my salesman and another salesman) told me to leave without temp plates, that it is acceptable in illinois (until the police told me it was illegal). 6/2 9:43 pm got on the expressway = experience uncontrollable vibration at 60mph. Call dealer immediately at 9:45pm on 6/2, tell them I will bring back the car in the am. 6/3 ¿11:30am- bring car back, dealer aligns + balances. 3pm- pick up car. Car still vibrates. 6/4 ¿ 2:00pm ¿ I bring car back to Acura for the second time in 48 hours. Dealer states they will take the car to Lexus, as Lexus has equipment that Acura does not have. Acura will keep the car overnight. Dealer takes to Lexus on 6/5 to use their equipment to balance. 6/5 ¿ pick up car + still same issue. Dealer states you have to drive 55mph or 80mph for no vibration. This is the way the car is built and that is it. 6/5 - 5:09pm, I was supposed to pick up the car today. They told me would be ready at 4. They have done everything that they could and they can no longer help me.
