I had a total of 6 transmissions replaced in my Acura Tl 2000 3. 2 liter. Why is Toyota getting so much press and trouble and Honda didn't. Honda wouldn't address the issue and my resale value was horrible. I encountered the problem after buying the car at 14,000 miles. I am considering sending this to abc news. They wanted the story a couple of years ago when I e-mailed them. I think I will follow up now. Why do Toyota owners get help but Acura owners do not. The recommendations by your agency didn't protect Acura owners from potential deadly consequences nor financial losses. I spent thousands of dollars on this problem. Your remedy was insulting and the lawsuit was a joke.
