Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Last year i started having problems with the vehicle i`ve purchased. i`ve contacted the dealer with the problems, and they have told me that repairs wouldn`t be done at no charge because my car is no longer covered by a manufacturer`s warranty. when i drive my car, the ride is very stiff, every time there is a crack or a little bump on the road it feels like you are driving off the road. you can literally hear every little crack in the pavement.i`ve driven my friends acura integra 1995 se, it`s the same car, made the same year with similar milieage, and it didn`t have any problems such as the ones on my car. i`ve taken my car to the repair shop, and i`ve been told that the shocks are fine, and that a car such as mine should not have problems like the ones listed above. the exhaust has also broke. the aluminum cover that goes around the exhaust pipe to prevent it from getting rusted or getting damaged is broken, every time i change gears that buzzing noise is coming from the exhaust pipe. the dealer has told me that it would cost around two hundred dollars to get fixed. i was just wondering, if dealer refuses to make the repairs on my car because it has run out of warranty, who should i contact? i`ve been taking care of my car, never raced it . i`ve been told by a mechanic that the problems i have with my car, do not usually occur in this year`s model acura with similar mileage. *ak
