I checked with my local Acura dealer as my 2004 TL has developed the
vibration problem noted in earlier posts. It occurs at about 50 mph and slowly seems to subside at higher speeds. The salesman (at Gold Coast Acura in Ventura, CA) had heard of the problem and passed my request along to the Service Manager, David. He called me to suggest that I bring the car in to check the wheel balance. He also said that he couldn't replace the tires without authorization from Acura. Of course, the bad news is that even if Acura recalls the tires, they will no doubt replace then with more Bridgestones. I read that tirerack.com rated these tires absolutely last in the comparison of passenger car tires. I plan to contact the regional manager and request that my tires are replaced with another brand. - Russ in Santa Barbara |

I'm going to be getting mine from Calabassas
I wonder if this seemingly VERY COMMON occurrance will allow me to negotiate the price lower. Taking a list of all the known defects that everyone has had, using them as fuel for the arguement.
