When turning car off ignition transmission interlock failed and the car was left in neutral and after exiting car it rolled backward (on a hillside) & hit parked truck. Very risky!

I had fixed, but Honda is putting public at risk!.

2000 Acura Tl. Consumer states unintended acceleration causing a crash. As the consumer backed out from a parking space and proceeded to drive, the vehicle accelerated out of control with fierce force and speed and spun around in circles several times. Finally, the vehicle hit a post in the parking lot. The momentum caused the consumer to hit two parked cars. The police were called, however they had no authority to investigate since the accident happened on private property. An inspection of the vehicle was ordered, but nothing was found wrong.
We can take the key out of the ignition when the car is in gear causing the car to roll. This is one of the things that is being recalled. Also our srs light is lite on the dash. Our auto manual indicates this is a airbag problem and needs attention by a dealer. We called Acura (11/03/2014) at 1-800-382-2238 and talk to danelle. We were told our VIN number does have a recall for these items. Do we have to have to pay for this because our VIN number isn't on the list? if other Acura's with our year and model is having a problem why isn't ours on the recall list?.
My key can be pulled from the ignition without first putting the shifter in park. If the emergency brake isn't applied the car can roll but cannot be steered. It is dangerous. Acura and Honda have a number of recalls for this issue, including some 2000 Tl vins but apparently doesn't include my VIN under the recall. The description of the recall exactly matches my symptoms and it is a serious safety issue and a very expensive repair. Onset date and mileage are approximate. I've been living with this problem for years hoping that Acura would eventually recognize that they are responsible for this and pay for the repair.
