general problems of the 2004 Acura TL

My "d" indicator light is blinking no matter changing the transmission fluid, cleaning the solenoids, etc. The car is not overheating, there are no apparent electrical problems and I do not even have any check engine lights or other codes. The light comes on blinking when I drive for a little while then goes off when I turn the car off and is fine. Then when I start it up it doesn't blink anymore. But then when I drive again for a while it blinks again. I've had transmission shuddering, jerky shifting, delayed shifting, etc.

After having my car in the shop for 2 weeks trying to figure out why the power steering won't stop freaking exploding when there is nothing wrong with any of the parts except the hoses going bad. I once again was left in the middle of a busy street with no power steering trying to muscle my way back to the shop. This is ridiculousssssss. Why are they not telling us their cars have issues!!!!!.

I I am texting you because there was a recall on the transmission and it broke down on me when I went out of town so it is still sitting in the town I went to and the recall was on power train automatic transmission recall number 08v091000 on 2/7/2008 and I would like to know when I can get my vehicle repaired.

The transmission is lacking at any moment that happens to me in the middle of the street. No safe another car almost hit me. No safe . . . . My dash is horrible completely cracke and this definitely is going to affect the airbags in my Acura 2004 Tl. Sorry is the wors of worst . Yes I was driving going in to the gas station and car just lack I couldn't do anything after about 20 minutes. The car gets on gear again and I get in gas station.

My 2004 Acura Tl is my first car owned. When I put the car in drive I can only accelerate to 20-30mph on the highway. Because, the car would not accelerate on a straight way or up hills. This is a dangerous manufacture malfunction with Acura transmissions for the consumers financially and physcially. I would appreciate a recall being done on my 2004 Acura Tl because I love this car and would love to keep it. I am a college student and do not have the money to install another transmission and the same thing happens again. I have read many reviews about transmissins failures on Honda/Acura transmissions. I thought Acura was a great brand, but Acura ceo and headquaraters have to know that consumers are frustrated and angry regarding transmissions and other related issues due to the transmissions.

Power steering spit out oil everywhere.

One of the front axles sheared (broke in half). This happened when the car started moving forward when the light turned green. An accident didn't result but if this had happened while the car was moving it would have been very bad. The mechanic suggested the axle was made with weak metal. The car had 122,000 miles on it and has since been sold to carmax. The other front axle has not been replaced but likely is made of the same weak metal. I have the broken axle and will save it for another month.

My 2004 Acura Tl is experiencing transmission issues. I was driving down a city street when my car suddenly began slipping gears. The engine would rev when I pressed the gas, however, the car was acting like it was in neutral. I was driving in traffic so this could have potentially caused a crash. I am thankful that this did not happen while I was on the highway just moments before the problem started happening. I was able to steer the car to the side of the road and put it into park. The car would not properly shift into drive or reverse. I had to get my car towed to a mechanic. He stated that something in the transmission was overheating and that some serious damage could have occurred. The transmission problems that I am experiencing are identical to the problems outlined in recall #04v176000.

Bought used on 1/1 /2018,drove fine for about 10 minutes and then it felt like car went into neutral and car wouldn't move. We were about an hour from my house from where we bought car. We then had to pull over ,shut the car off , wait 5 minutes and start car for it not even go a mile and we would have to repeat. We were traveling on busy parkway and this became a traffic hazard due to the amount of traffic. The car will shift into any gear and has 130,000 miles on it.

Vehicle transmission is shifting hard and feels like it's slipping.

Recall number 04v176000 power train:automatic transmission I have noticed that when you type in your make and model this is the recall that shows up, but when I use my VIN it does not show this recall but it shows the same symptoms/ issues that are on this recall. My car whines after certain rpm. I called Acura and explained the same and they said it is not specific to my VIN. I asked a dealer and the employee explained that this was common and people have driven their cars with same issues up to 400k miles. Is this safe for me to drive when I know the problem exists. How can the manufacturer get away not honor when the exact problem exists. I have read a few complains that other people have expressed on the web. Is there anything I can do so Acura can honor this issue?.

Driving along and power goes out. As if pops out of gear. But do not hear a popping into and out of gear. Then all the sudden pops back into gear. This is dangerous. High speed and then power goes out.

Powertrain recall issue 04v176000. . . . Accelerated on its own when I was slowing down to park just hit the curb slightly . . Then the d light started blinking. . . Very scary.

My 2004 Acura Tl has recently been experiencing issues where the transmission would lock up while driving, potentially leaving myself and my passenger(s) susceptible to a vehicular crash and rendering the vehicle immobile. While checking the national highway traffic safety administration (NHTSA), the u. S. Automotive recall and Acura websites, I saw that there had been a recall (00-04 cl & Tl a/t recall) for the ¿exact same issue¿ I was having with my Acura. I then proceeded to call the 1800 number that was on Acura¿s webpage. Upon calling this number, I was instantly met with resistance about the recall and was given the run around about the appropriate person to speak with regarding this issue. I was specially told that my car was not impacted by this recall and Acura would not honor the safety defect that potential affected 1,099,796 units according to the recall summary that is displayed on all three websites previously mentioned. When I requested to speak with a zone manger or someone that would look into my inquiry, I was put on hold for 20 minutes, only to speak with a customer service agent by the name of julian. Julian reiterated that my issue was not applicable to the recall and suggested that I take the vehicle to an Acura dealership at my own expense. I informed julian that I was not pleased with his decision to dismiss my inquiry and I requested his contact information to file a formal complaint, which he refused to give me. I am reaching out today because my vehicle has been affected by NHTSA recall number: 04v-176 and I have not received the customer service that anyone would find acceptable in resolving this issue. I would like for my vehicle to be repaired by Acura at no expense to me and for someone at Acura to follow up with me by the end of this week with a resolution to this matter.

Previous recall on the power steering hose leaking, mine is leaking when in motion and stationary, previous recall on internal transmission fault, previous recall on wiper motor housing, current recall on ball joints, was told by mechanic I have a ball joint problem, current problem with passenger side headlight going out. Replaced ballast with new one and head light worked for a couple of weeks and went out again, notice while in motion and stationary.

The contact owns a 2004 Acura Tl. While driving 35 mph, the gear shifter tooth failed. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic where it was diagnosed that the gear shifter tooth fractured and the transmission needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 180,000.

The transmission seems to be falling out of gear. Its an automatic and when I put it into drive sometimes it doesn't go although the rpm still goes up and gas is still being pushed so im pretty sure the car thinks its going when its not. When I was driving on a busy road my Acura decided to fall out of shift as I was turning. So, everythings great and then all of a sudden my car wont go instead its just rolling even though I give it gas and the rpm goes up.

My son purchased a new 2004 Acura Tl from the elk grove CA dealership with money he saved while in the navy. He has had the car and maintained it through the end of last year but has been aware for awhile that the transmission is in need of replacing. There was a NHTSA recall (04v176000) April 15, 2004 for power train transmissions like the automatic transmission in my son's car and motor trend magazine posted that it potentially 1,000,796. We believe that our son's car has the same problem, whether or not the VIN was in the exact lot selected for the official recall. When my son got out of the navy, he moved around quite a bit while finishing his bachelor's degree and did not receive any information regarding this matter from Acura and did not hear about it otherwise. We have taken the car to the fremont, CA Acura dealership but they are refusing to acknowledge any culpability or replace the ransmission, though there are obvious, well-known, historical transmission issues with Acuras. Refusal is, of course, the first line of defense in corporate America, but we hate to see his hard earned money ($30k+) spent on what was supposed to be a high-performing, luxury vehicle.

The contact owns a 2004 Acura Tl. The contact stated that while driving at various speeds, the vehicle shifted into gear abruptly. The vehicle would also hesitate between gears. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic for diagnosis and the contact was informed that the transmission would need to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure became worse until the vehicle would not shift into any gear and became inoperable. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The contact was informed of a recall under NHTSA campaign number: 04v176000 (power train) but did not confirm if the vehicle was included in the recall. The failure and current mileage was 124,000.

Vehicle sputtering/judders during acceleration at low speeds (around 25-35mph). This problem started sometime after (may be in 2009) I bought a pre-owned vehicle in 2007. When I first complained it to a dealer in 2009, they said it might be due to cold weather. But now I moved to a place which is warmer all year around, but still the problem persists. Recently took the vehicle to the dealer and was informed that the transmission might need a replacement.
