what tire and leather seat issues. there's a well known headliner issue that
deserved a TSB, but from what i've read thus far any tire issues were due to
poor selection, not safety related. what about the leather ???
aug/sept 2004 you should see 2005 tl's.

inherent problem with the leather stretching out, and causing cracks and
creases, especially with the lighter shades it becomes more apparent.
Also from what I ahve been reading is that the stock
tires,(even the second generation) are hazards in the rain or other
inclement conditions.
Whats the deal with the headliner?
Would you wait a few months for a
2005?

the glue used to attach the velcro to the steel of the car comes off.
probably a specs issue, either 3M delivered bad product or Acura design
specs were bad.
my tl does nt have this issue, yet.
2005 should be more refined.

Mine did but after two tried from my dealer, I gave up on them
and used epoxy to fix it.

the solution is (since no TSB for it), to find out from Acura who supplies
the velcro. 3M probably makes the pressure stick tape that the velcro is on.
once you get the type of glue used you could get better velcro from 3M (3M
makes some good stuff).
