Noise when going from park to reverse and reverse to park. Received recall notice after transmission was replace.

My vehicle was purchased in 2002 and since then I have had four incidences where while driving the car at 55 - 60 mph the car lost power, there was a grinding noise and the car came to a halt in the middle of the highway. This happened in December of 2003 (50,819 miles), November of 2005 (91,460 miles), November of 2007 (129,435 miles) and most recently July 17th with (201,000 miles). As I drove on the lie driving westbound around exit 40 my car lost power and began to slow making a loud grinding noise. In the previous three cases the car needed a new transmission. I pulled the car over and after towing it to a station I was told I needed a fourth transmission. I have contacted Acura and they told me they could not help. The car has the original engine and I have a notice from Acura stating early on that the transmissions on the Acura 2002 Tls were defective. I contacted the attorney general's office to appeal to this agency and apply the lemon law but the law only applies to new cars. They gave me this site to state my case. As I mentioned to Acura for a luxury automobile to still have a great working engine and have gone through four transmissions, I believe their is a safety issue with these transmissions. Not to mention the fact that the transmission gives no warning when it breaks down and one is left with no power at high speeds on the highway. ## VIN passed ## Acura Tl 2002 s-type ##.
