NOW, THE ABS SYSTEM IS FAILING AND MAKES A CONSTANT NOISE EVEN THOUGH WE HAVE HAD IT FLUSHED AND LOOKED AT BY THE DEALER. ON FEBRUARY 3, 2000, MY HUSBAND LUIS AGUILAR SENT A LETTER TO ACURA EXPLAINING OUR COMPLAINT AND EVEN THOUGH WE GOT A QUESTIONNAIRE ASKING HOW OUR COMPLAINT WAS HANDLED WE NEVER GOT A RESPONSE FROM ACURA. *AK
