U.S. Vehicles:
According to state and federal
regulations, failure to perform
maintenance on the items marked

maintenance services should be
performed at the recommended time
or mileage period to ensure long-
term reliability.
You should check the following
items at the specified intervals. If

Your authorized dealer knows your
vehicle best and can provide
competent, efficient service.
However, service at a dealer is not
mandatory to keep your warranties
in effect. Maintenance may be done
by any qualified service facility or
person who is skilled in this type of
automotive service. Keep all receipts
as proof of completion, and have the
person who does the work fill out the
maintenance record. Check your
warranty booklet for more
information.
We recommend the use of Acura
parts and fluids whenever you have
maintenance done. These are
manufactured to the same high-
quality standards as the original
components, so you can be confident
of their performance and durability.
