The contact owns a 2008 Acura Tl. While driving at approximately 40 mph, the vehicle lost all power and the check engine and vsa warning lights illuminated.

While driving at approximately 50mph the car suddenly stalled. Vsa and transmission light illuminated. I pulled over to a safe spot, turned they vehicle off and back on. The lights went off and driving seemed normal, but after driving further it happened again. Took the car to dealership and they said it was the pedal position sensor, paid to have it replaced. The next day we drove to texas from nc and the same thing happened. We called the dealership and they said it may take a month for everything to reprogram. We gave it a year and nothing changed so took it to a mechanic who discovered the part was never replaced. We paid to have it replace again. Problem is now resolved.
