THE PROBLEM HAS BEEN REPORTED TO THE ACURA DEALER WHO ONLY OFFERS TO CHARGE EXCESSIVE AMOUNTS FOR A NON-GUARANTEED SOLUTION AND CLAIMS THIS IS NOT SOMETHING THEY SEE IN THIS CAR. HOWEVER, IT IS CLEAR FROM REGULAR DAILY DRIVING THAT SIGNIFICANT NUMBERS OF THESE CARS SUFFER FROM THIS PROBLEM. THE HEADLIGHTS HAVE BEEN CLEANED AS RECOMMENDED IN THE INSTRUCTIONS WITHOUT SUCCESS. THIS IS AN ONGOING PROBLEM FROM 2013 TO CURRENT 2019.
