Few ways ago buy this car has only 84,300 miles . . . . While driving today suddenly malfunction sign comes and car slow down and making weared sounds. . .

The contact owns a 2001 Acura Tl. The contact stated while driving approximately 45 mph the transmission jerked violently and failed to shift into second gear. The rpms began to increase with the illumination of the tcs and engine warning indicators. The failure recurred numerous times. The vehicle was taken to an authorized dealer. There was a recall under NHTSA campaign id number 04v176000 (power train) however, the secondary gear did not exhibit discoloration and the dealer refused to repair the vehicle . The manufacturer was not notified of the defect. The approximate failure mileage was o 200,000.

I live in toledo ohio bought this car in michigan was on my way home when my cars wheels locked up scared me too death jerked back and forth in gear check engine lite came on tcs lite came on and d5 lite was blinking this car only had 82,000 miles I can not believe the government closes its eyes too all these complaints someone is going to get seriously hurt we need to sue Acura for crap transmissions I mean come on and then for them to take advantage of hard working americans who trust Honda is not rite at all someone is getting paid off is the only reason this issue hasnt been resolved and for the dealer not to do anything but want to give you another junk garbage transmission and charge you 3500 for the same problem to happen again is ridiculous we all need to file a lawsuit for this and they need to upgrade the transmissions to make them better and for the safety administration to turn a blind eye for a car that could lock up and kill someone and not fine or make Acura eat the cost for there screw up shame on you.

Tl- the contact owns a 2001 Acura Tl. The contact stated that the vehicle lost power while driving. This had happened on more then one occasion. The contact stated that the vehicle started fine, but once the transmission got hot the vehicle started to feel as if it was loosing power. The vehicle was taken to the dealer and it was determined that the transmission needed to be replaced. The contact was not given the reason why the transmission needed to be replaced. The failure mileage and current mileages was 155,000. Rl.

I was exactly halfway through a 350 mile road trip, driving uphill along a busy interstate in the left lane when, without warning, my 2001 Acura 3. 2 Tl began losing speed despite continued throttle acceleration. The engine rpm's were climbing as if the transmission were in neutral. Luckily, I was able to roll to right shoulder and come to a safe stop. My transmission shut down completely. The reverse and all drive gears behaved as neutral. I was left with only park and neutral. I opened the hood and smelled something burning. When I checked the transmission fluid it was black and smoking. Just 3 hours earlier when I checked all my fluids before leaving, I noticed the transmission fluid was the normal shiny red. I was given no warning signs, no symptoms of shifting problems, and no console indication that my transmission was running hotter than normal. I understand that there was a recall on my year make and model, and that my transmission was included in that recall. Why didn't Acura fix this problem? my vehicle has only 103,000 mi; this shouldn't have happened.

My complaint is toward Acura relations and devan Acura of norwalk, CT regarding a serious transmission problem. My transmission has been diagnosed with having a hard shift/slippage from 2nd to 3rd gear, which is part of recall, I. D. 48580. This type of problem can result in transmission lockup, which could result in a crash. A case manager from Acura relations explained over the phone that if problem is recall related, the cost of repairs would be covered. Unfortunately, even though devan Acura of norwalk has determined that a hard shift/slippage from 2nd to 3rd gear exists, they never asked me what I felt comfortable doing, which my answer would be to replace the transmission, as it pertains to the recall, especially as promised by Acura relations. Devan Acura of norwalk performed a transmission fluid flush to try and resolve the problem, which did not improve the drivability of the vehicle, as a hard shift/slippage still exists. Please note that I paid for this vehicle brand new, in full, from devan Acura of norwalk and do not appreciate feeling as though Acura relations and devan Acura of norwalk has shown a lack of concern towards mine and my family's safety, as they chose not to further assist in this matter and I fear for my family's safety driving this vehicle and would like it repaired as promised by Acura relations (case number will be provided upon request).

While driving my 2001, the tranny was not shifting. Scared my wife silly. Had less than 50000 miles and had taken the car to Acura for this issue. They installed some kind of cooler device related to tranny issue. $3000 later for a tranny repair at a reputable independent garage and Acura refused to foot the bill. No more Acuras for me and my family. Hit them where it hurts- in the pocket book!.
