| Acura 2004 tsx owner. just recently discovered this site; but as with the other complaints, i have also experience the vehicle to vibrate/shimmy while applying the brakes. i have taken this to the dealer, 1st when i had 12,000 miles, and being a naive 1st time car owner, i had to pay to replace the brakes (apprx. $300.00) for a brand new car! i then experienced this at approx. 25,000 miles, and again had to pay $300.00 for a new set of brakes. this is an issue with acura - and as stated by others on this database, it may be possible that this could lead to possible injury due to brake malfunction. *tr | |||

| When applying brakes, they travel lower and feel softer than normal and are not responsive. brakes will lose traction, causing the car to roll when stopped. at a national brake repair service provider, i was told that they could flush the brake system (which temporarily improved the issue for about a week), but air was getting into the brake system due to a faulty vsa modulator. acura does not allow sell these parts outside of their own service providers and has not issued a recall for this potentially dangerous issue with this vehicle. i am submitting this complaint in hopes that this could prevent any future accidents. *tr | |||
