| 2004 | 4dr Sedan 225-horsepower 3.5L V6 4-speed automatic FWD |
I wonder if the car contained a time bomb that went off when the warranty expired. HVAC and audio systems required expensive repairs. Poor durability for a 4-year old car with only 27,500-miles. Acura customer service denied assistance. full 2004 Acura RL review |
