I own a 2001 Acura Cl type s. On January 5th the transmission of my car failed to engage while I was travelling south on hwy 101 in CA, at approximately 70 mph. No one was injured. The situation could have been drastically worse if
I had been travelling in heavier traffic because there was no warning before the transmissions failure.

Purchased 2001 Acural 3. 2cl s-type with 32k miles. At 38k miles, car began to slip in 3rd gear. Transmission would completely disengage in 3rd, and I would have to shift it to adjacent gear to re-engage transmission. Over the course of the next week, slipping became increasingly more frequent. I have read many similar such complaints, and I am seriously concerned about the reliability of the Cl transmission.
Transmission not engaging fourth gear and revving-out on third gear. Check engine dash indicator stayed on and traction control indicators come on intermittently. Second transmission replacement with less than 40 k miles on the car.
Transmission has shown not to engage in third gear (when in sport shift control) causing strain on the engine also it may not shift down from 3rd gear to second on "sport shift". This has happened continously servicer since 10000 miles and I learned to live with it (not using the sport shift). Further more in August/September of 2002 I have started hearing a sound which has ben diagnosed by a third party garage as indicative of serious transmission "problems". Ol (dt).
Transmission completely disengages at about 2500 to 3000 rpms and the engine shoots up to redline. Acura is well aware that they have a problem with these transmissions, and needs to take corrective action on fixing all of them out there. This poses an extreme safety concern.
Transmission was not engaging. Rpms went high and low without pushing brakes. Engine check light was on and vsa light was on constantly. Dealer has been contacted. Felt it was a transmission problem.
