I am the original owner of this car and it has been a great dependable car. The paint is original. There are no known issues with the car at this time. I am selling only to buy something I probably shouldn't be buying and I will probably regret letting this car go since it is so dependable and so economical for me to operate. I have always used synthetic oil in the car and change oil and filters every 4/5000 miles. The car had its regular major service at 104K (approx) by Acura wherein they give it their major service and change the timing belt among other things. I use Acura for most of my oil changes and service calls. I have another mechanic who I also use and have replaced with him: battery, alternator, wheel bearing, ball joints. There has never been any issue with the automatic transmission. The car is running perfectly at this time and it is completely dependable. I kept my last Acura for 250K miles and this one will do the same; so based on my track record I would imagine this car good for another 100K miles. ( I AM NOT MAKING THIS A GUARANTEE FOR THIS SALE BUT MERELY MY OBSERVATION - SO DON'T CONSIDER THIS ANYTHING BUT MY OWN PERSONAL THOUGHT).

The car was never involved in any motor vehicle accident. A deer did run into the right quarter panel a few years ago and the panel and the hood were replaced. You would never know this unless I told you which I just did. No other accidents. The car does have normal wear for its age but the pictures just taken give a good idea how well it presents itself. I had a $15 car wash yesterday and drove about 25 miles in melting snow and it still looks rather well. I can provide additional information and pictures if you need them.

J.D. Power study sees new car dependability problems increase for first time since 1998

Wed, 12 Feb 2014

For the first time since 1998, J.D. Power and Associates says its data shows that the average number of problems per 100 cars has increased. The finding is the result of the firm's much-touted annual Vehicle Dependability Study, which charts incidents of problems in new vehicle purchases over three years from 41,000 respondents.
Looking at first-owner cars from the 2011 model year, the study found an average of 133 problems per 100 cars (PP100, for short), up 6 percent from 126 PP100 in last year's study, which covered 2010 model-year vehicles. Disturbingly, the bulk of the increase is being attributed to engine and transmission problems, with a 6 PP100 boost.
Interestingly, JDP notes that "the decline in quality is particularly acute for vehicles with four-cylinder engines, where problem levels increase by nearly 10 PP100." Its findings also noticed that large diesel engines also tended to be more problematic than most five- and six-cylinder engines.

Airbag recall widens to include BMW, Chrysler, Ford and Toyota

Mon, 23 Jun 2014

The recall of faulty airbag inflators supplied by Takata has exploded today to grow to seven automakers. In most cases, only models in certain high-humidity regions were affected because the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration found in its investigation that moisture played a roll in determining whether there would be a problem. However, some companies opted for national campaigns. The exact number of affected models for these campaigns isn't yet known at this time.
BMW is recalling an undisclosed number of 325i, 325Xi, 330i and 330Xi models from the 2001 through 2005 model years and the 2001-2006 model year versions of the 325Ci and 330Ci for the driver side and passenger side inflators. Only vehicles currently registered in Florida, Puerto Rico, Hawaii and the US Virgin Islands are covered under this recall.
Neither Chrysler's filing with NHTSA nor its press release list the specific models affected, but a company spokesperson told Autoblog that at this time it only covers the driver and passenger side inflators for the 2006 Dodge Charger in Florida, Puerto Rico, Hawaii and the US Virgin Islands
