general problems of the 2006 Acura TL

I was told by a mechanic that this 2006 Acura Tl I bought from joe's garage here in clovis CA was a car I do not want to be driving. Now when purchased from joe's garage he stated he put engine didn't say new or used, he also said the car was practically brand new because previous owner was a high school kid who assume he cracked his radiator and was not the problem, but the kid bought a new car and left Acura there since. Since the purchased I had nothing, but engine problems told joe never responded I did my own research come to find out joe's business licensed was suspended and that where he got my car Acura to pass smog of course was a smog business already being investigated for passing car illegally. So I took my Acura to Acura dealer here in fresno CA I was told all motor mounts were cracked so they replaced all motor mounts and installed used motor charging me $7,000 at that time I was in the process of suing joe's garage however since I have had no car emotionally distress because I paid $2700 for Acura trusting this business man come to find out its salvaged vehicle now you can understand how frustrated I am not including the losses in my life back to back not been able to just mourn rest etc because of cruel business companies intentions. I'm not asking for much all I want is for you to give Acura dealer here in fresno CA the ok to make sure my car is or passed the safety and drivable test making sure everything on car is safe to drive at no cost to me. I have grandkids who are my world and I need to have a good reliable car for them nathan here at Acura dealer called me yesterday asking me if I had money, I said no I will file my taxes and see but I honestly feel and would appreciate your help on closing the two companies for good and release my car to me at no cost.

Power steering hose oil leaking, accelerator pedal may bind, driver frontal air bag inflator may explode, 2001-11 multi-model airbag inflator recalls , pressure monitoring and regulating systems. Transmission oil is leaking all the oil in 4 days.

My transmission ran out in freeway and it almost killed me I need a recall.

Vsa modulator control unit on 2006 Acura Tl is leaking air into the brake system making the pedal soft which can lead to poor braking and cause accidents. I narrowly escaped an accident a few weeks ago. Acura has known this issue for long time and has even published a technical service bulletin (07-041) but has not recalled the vehicle to replace this part. This has been an ongoing issue with a lot of Honda and Acura vehicles but there has been no enforcement. Nhtsa should look into this issue and force Honda/Acura to recall these vehicles.

Abs kicked in when braking on an icy downhill. This is the first time abs has ever engaged on this car. After releasing the brake pedal, brakes became extremely soft and travel much farther towards to the floor before brakes engage. Pumping them does not return brakes to normal operation. Research uncovered a technical service bulletin (TSB) with Honda/Acura aware of this problem. Acura service bulletin 07041. It appears this should be a recall given the danger this poses (loss of braking power). Recommendation is to replace $900+ vsa modulator. Ridiculous.

I was driving down the highway at ~60+ mph in traffic and tapped the brakes. The car lurched and almost came to a dead stop (I later learned that the automatic transmission had shifted into 1st gear). This happened 2-3 other times as I tried to move over and get out of the traffic flow w/o being able to fully deploy the brakes. I had to "coast" to a stop. The force of the lurch was enough to throw me forward in my seat. I feel very fortunate that the airbag didn't deploy and that I was able to move to the shoulder without incident. The loud clunk that the car made when this happened made me think I had hit a huge rock or something in the road. Beyond scary. I am the only owner of this car and it has been 100% maintained by the dealer.

: the contact stated a slight rattle was heard from the rear tires of the vehicle after hitting a bump. The noise sounded like a muffler that was not clamped tightly to the body. The rattle was first heard on the left side, and then was heard from both sides. The vehicle was taken to the dealer on 06/28/06 but could not duplicate problem. The dealer adjusted the brake cable on 06/30/06 but the problem persisted. The dealer repacked the braking system on 07/03/06. The vehicle was taken to the dealer a fourth time on 08/03/06 where the whole braking system was redone, but the problem persisted. The noise only happened during bumpy road conditions. The manufacturer was contacted who determined the problem was not a safety issue.

2006 Acura Tl has had several problems from day of purchase. Consumer wants the dealership to buy the car back because he feels that the car is a lemon. The windshield wiper fluid stopped spraying. It was discovered that the hose was loose. The brakes starting squeaking and the dealer replaced them.
