Electrical System problem #1

My husband and I have a 2022 Acura Tlx (purchased new) that was issued a safety recall. We brought the car into the dealership in April to fix the problem. Two weeks later, the car completely malfunctioned- every warning light went off at the same time, and the car completely lost control. Steering, brakes, power/gas, everything went out. During this second visit, the dealership replaced the pcm. Last night, the exact same issue happened. My husband was thankfully near home, but if he was on a highway, he could've easily been killed. Again, everything in the car went out- steering, brakes, power- and he had zero control of the car. The car was towed a couple hours ago to the dealership (third time since initial visit in April), and the service manager said, "this has never happened before. . . " and had no answers. This is an extremely high risk situation, and we do not feel safe getting into this car when the dealership/manufacturer is clearly not able to fix their own safety recall.

Electrical System problem #2

Driving on the highway during light rain. Applied 45%-65% throttle to pass. The check engine light began to flash and the car went into limp mode. Pulled over on the highway shut the vehicle down and restarted it 30 seconds later. Check engine light was gone, no longer in limp mode.

Electrical System problem #3

I’m owner of a Acura model: txl year:2022, VIN: 19uub5f50na001275 I send my car after 7 days of purchase to the dealer because the car wasn’t started and all the dash light start blinking. Dealer said that this was not warranty cover because I tint the windshield and this create some humidity on the connector that go to the micu. I need that you please start looking this issue because in a lot of forums another people start getting the same electrical issue even without tint the windshield. My car was only 130 miles when go the dealers, and per my understanding this can’t be the issue because if we follow this excuse then we never can be do a detailing on the interior on the car or even to the dash because any product can be cause a humidity to the connector. Can you please verify if this statement is tru or not? because there is not or any disclaimer from Acura that for t:lx model you can tint the windshield.
