Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: Drivers seat squeaks and creaks when weight shifts. this is most noticeable when making left turns. there are 7 pages of owners on an acura tsx owners website that also experience this problem. many have taken it to their dealer and either the seat base or rails are replaced or tightened. some dealers mentioned that these were either aligned improperly or are not strong enough to support the weight and they either bend or shift. in many cases, the fixes the dealers performed did work and the noise returns soon afterwards. while this is quite possibly not a safety issue, it is a build problem with the redesigned 2006 tsx. the seat system in this model year is new due to the addition of the power-adjustment mechanism. a $28k car should not have squeaks and creaks. *jb |
