Is this normal for an Acura brand to have the brakes replaced at 20-21k? Seems odd to me, I have never abused this car whatsoever. They quoted me 750 for everything.
If not, any suggestions on how to proceed? I already emailed Acura Client Relations but they told me to work it out with the dealer. lol
Thank you

Are they screeching? Take it to another dealership and since you bought it brand new (warranty usually ends at 36k or 3 years) have them do an inspection.
Better yet, jack up the car and take off the tire. Inspect the brake pads yourself.
To answer your question, fuck that! new brake pads at 21k that is bullshit specially when the car is new. What they give you old used brake pads?
Unless you drive like a maniac, I do not see how the brake pads are at that level.
