Review Acura TSX Automatic 2007

Key strengths: Performance, mileage, interior finish, fairly smooth ride. Well appointed and finished interior.

Areas for improvement: Poor heating system. Fair weather tires Erratic voice control system. Audio system mediocre at best.

I bought the TSX because nothing with its features is even close in price. I was also impressed with the reliability history. Most of my complaints deal with problems in cold weather. One of the windshield wipers leaves a big gap, inexcusable for a luxury class car. The car takes forever to heat up, making it hard to keep the windows fully defrosted. The heated seats take a long time to warm up. The heater fan output is downright paltry. My feet are still cold after 30 minutes. The standard Michlein tires have a very weak tread and are nearly useless on ice or snow. When the car is cold, the voice recognition system seems to go haywire, doing things no where near what I requested. Strangly enough, it performs fairily well once the interior finally heats up. If you live where the winters are cold, this is not the car for you. The running costs for Acura TSX Automatic are normal
