1 Car Stall problem

Failure Date: 11/27/2018

I have had the vehicle into the dealer 3 times (Feb 2018, July 2018 and Nov 18) for the same problem. Each time the vehicle stalls and must bet into park and restarted when at a stop sign, stop light or stopped for road construction on the highway. The automatic idle causes the car to stall. In order to get it going must shift into park and restart. It is very frightening because it happens intermittently. This happens with no warning and presents a safety issue. The car is not safe and is a hazard.

2 Car Stall problem

Failure Date: 04/01/2017

Tl the contact owns a 2015 Acura Tlx. While driving 50 mph, the vehicle stalled and stopped in the middle of the road. The entire instrument panel illuminated. The vehicle was able to restart, but stalled again at red traffic lights as the auto start feature malfunctioned. The dealer (Acura of avon, 75 albany turnpike, canton, CT 06019, (860) 693-6981) refused to turn off the auto start feature because it was against the law. The contact traveled to florida and had an unknown Acura dealer change the battery and check the fuel pump for a recall, but no failure was found. The unknown dealer advised the contact to press the ignition button every time and avoid using the auto start feature. The manufacturer was not contacted. The failure mileage was unknown.

4 Car Stall problem

Failure Date: 01/01/2015

The car has times where it stalls or hesitates significantly - this occurs worst in shifting from reverse to drive (there is a several second delay and then a surge forward), and there are hard shifts between 1-2 and 2-3 gears. There are also times where when coasting and you apply throttle, it is unresponsive. There have also been situations where the car downshifts very hard and lurches forward almost uncontrollably (this has only occurred in sport+ mode).
