1 Seats problem of the 2005 Acura TSX

Failure Date: 10/04/2022

Had just picked up my car from being repaired from an accident and was just driving along and I turned the seat heater on and I started seeing smoke coming from under me and was getting hot so I pulled over and found my seat was on fire ,I was 9 months pregnant at the time and feared for me and my soon to be child's life. I called the fire department where they put the fire out for me. I had it then sent to Acura to check it and they are telling me this is my fault and are charging me $319 for looking at it. I feel that this was a faulty part and is a danger to me, it is currently at the collision repair center which I took it back to and refuse to drive because I am very scared to drive it now. Seems to be a seat heater issue.

3 Seats problem of the 2004 Acura TSX

Failure Date: 03/25/2009

Power driver's seat shifts during hard breaking/acceleration. Seat shifts forward and back less than an inch. This can be troublesome when accelerating and it causes my foot to slip off of the clutch and jump suddenly. Could cause me to involuntarily slam into the car in front of me. I have had multiple dealers look at this and they have all told me it is because of the way the seat was designed and they are unable to fix it. A moving seat does not feel safe.

6 Seats problem of the 2006 Acura TSX

Driver's side seat rails squeak badly. Acura needs a TSB to get this problem fixed quickly. Should not have this problem on a 3 month old $30,000 car. Check Acurazine website under Tsx forum- squeaky drivers seat and notice how many people are reporting his problem.

9 Seats problem of the 2004 Acura TSX

Failure Date: 04/05/2004

Acura Tsx 2004 driver seat slides back to front during heavy breaking or down shifting. Seat shift is about 1-2 inches and has a spring like effect. Also driver seat shifts slightly side to side during turns. Dealer states movement is normal factory specifications. To my knowledge from reading online forums, there are hundreds if not thousands of Tsx cars that have this problem. No TSB created to this date. Car is being taken in for fourth time to attempt to address problem. I sense that in the right situation, this seat shift problem may cause foot to slip off brake and cause an accident.
