POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
IT IS SCHEMING AND UNDERLYING OF AMERICAN HONDA MOTOR CO., INC. ACURA AUTOMOBILE DIVISION; BEING AWARE THAT A HIGHER THAN NORMAL NUMBER OF AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSIONS WERE HAVING PROBLEMS BEYOND A CERTAIN MILEAGE, AND A NON-ACTION TO HAVE A FULL RECALL ON ALL MAKE/MODELS TO THE EFFECTED VEHICLES IS CERTAINLY UNDERLYING LEAVING ACURA OWNERS WITH THE BILL WHILE THE COMPANY COLLECTS PROFITS FOR IT'S DEFECTIVE ENGINEERING AND DESIGN WITH IT'S TRANSMISSION. KNOWING THAT THERE IS A RECALL IN 2004 ACURA DID NOT AND HAS NOT FOLLOWED UP WITH THE TRANSMISSION DURING SERVICES AND MAINTENANCE, NOR DOES IT SAY ANYWHERE THAT THEY HAVE. *TR

POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2003 ACURA 3.2TL. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE TRANSMISSION DOES NOT SHIFT AND THE RPMS RINSE WHEN THE VEHICLE IS NOT TRAVELING AT HIGH SPEEDS. THE VEHICLE JERKS WHEN THE TRANSMISSION STALLS AND THE INSTRUMENT PANEL LIGHTS FLASH. THE CONTACT WAS CONCERNED THAT THE JERKING COULD CAUSE A CRASH. THE DEALER OFFERED TO PAY 50% OF THE REPAIR COST, BUT THE CONTACT FEELS THAT THE MANUFACTURER SHOULD PAY FOR THE ENTIRE REPAIR SINCE THE VEHICLE HAS 68,880 MILES AND THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE CANNOT BE DETERMINED. THE CURRENT AND FAILURE MILEAGES WERE 68,880.

POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
HELLO, MY NAME IS GILLIEUME GONSALVES WITH A 2003 ACURA TL. THE CAR WAS PURCHASED IN 3/07 FROM PRICE ACURA IN DOVER DELAWARE. THE SALES MAN WHOSE NAME IS BILL WHISTLER TOLD ME THAT THE CAR HAD NO PROBLEMS, THE CAR WAS INSPECTED FOR A SAFETY RECALL DEALING WITH THE TRANSMISSION AND SHOULD LAST WELL THROUGH THE ACURA WARRANTY AND THE LIFE OF THE CAR. AFTER ABOUT 6 MONTHS WORTH OF DRIVING, I WAS ON THE HIGHWAY AND DRIVING ABOUT 65 ON THE HIGHWAY AND LIGHTLY STEPPED ON THE BRAKES AND NOTICED THE TACHOMETER GO WELL BELOW THE NORMAL IDLE SPEED AND ALL OF A SUDDEN THE CAR JERKED AND SLIPPED OUT OF 5TH GEAR INTO 2ND GEAR CAUSING A SUDDEN DECELERATION AND ALMOST CAUSING A PILE UP ON THE FREEWAY. I WENT TO THE ACURA DEALERSHIP FOR THEM TO DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM AND THEY SAID IT WILL BE NOTED IN THE COMPUTER AND WILL BE COVERED UNDER THE WARRANTY EVEN AFTER IT RUNS OUT. I COMPLAINED TO HONDA AMERICA AND THE DEALERSHIP THAT IM NOT CONCERNED ABOUT BREAKING DOWN ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, I WAS MORE AFRAID THAT THE CAR WILL LOCK UP ON THE HIGHWAY AND ME OR MY FAMILY WILL END UP DEAD IN A CAR CRASH OR ROLL OVER, JUST LIKE SOME OTHER COMPLAINTS I HAVE SEEN ON THE INTERNET, THEY BOTH SAID THERE WAS NOTHING THEY CAN DO AND THEY CANNOT HONOR ANYTHING POSTED ON THE INTERNET. THE PROBLEM HAPPENED AGAIN JUST AFTER THE CAR CAME OUT OF WARRANTY AND ACURA SAID IF I PAY $3400 ACURA WILL PUT A USED THE TRANSMISSION THAT HAD ALREADY FAILED AND REBUILT IN THE CAR, I DECLINED. 2 MONTHS LATER THE TRANSMISSION SLIPPED OUT OF 5TH GEAR WHEN I TOOK MY FOOT OFF THE ACCELERATOR DURING RUSH HOUR AND THE POLICE WITNESSED THE SUDDEN DOWNSHIFT AND TOLD ME TO TOW IT HOME. THE NEXT DAY I HAD AAMCO TRANSMISSIONS LOOK OVER THE CAR AND THE MECHANIC SAID THE CAR ALMOST PUT HIM THROUGH THE WINDSHIELD TWICE AND I SHOULD LEAVE IT OR SOMEONE IS GOING TO GET KILLED. I HAD TO PAY $4000 TO HAVE A NEWLY REBUILT TRANSMISSION INSTALLED IN MY CAR. WHICH IS CRAZY BECAUSE HONDA IS TOO CHEAP TO REPLACE THIS DEFECT IN MY CAR. *TR

POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
WE'VE SERVICED OUR VEHICLE REGULARLY AND AS RECENTLY AS 2 TIMES IN THE LAST YEAR AT THE DEALERSHIP (ONCE FOR SERVICE AND THE OTHER FOR A RECALL) AND 1 TIME AT AN INDEPENDENT TRANSMISSION SHOP. THE SERVICE PEOPLE AT HONDA FOUND THE FLUID TO BE GOOD AND SAID "THE TRANSMISSION DOES NOT NEED SERVICE... HAVE IT CHECKED AT APPROXIMATELY 62,000MILES, WHICH WE DID. WE HAD THE TRANSMISSION COMPLETELY FLUSHED AND THE FLUID REPLACED AT APPROXIMATELY 62,000 MILES. THE CAR IS A 2005 ACURA TL. IT WAS OUT OF WARRANTY WITH APPROXIMATELY 75,000 MILES ON THE VEHICLE. WE WERE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY WHEN A NEARBY MOTORIST DIRECTED US TO PULL OVER. APPARENTLY THERE WAS SMOKE FUMING FROM THE VEHICLE. AT THAT POINT THERE WERE SEVERE POWER FLUCTUATIONS AND THE CAR REV'D OVER 5000 RPMS. THE TRANSMISSION HAD DISCHARGED A TREMENDOUS AMOUNT OF FLUID AND NEARLY CAUGHT ON FIRE. WE HAD THE VEHICLE ASSESSED INDEPENDENTLY AND THEN AT THE ACURA DEALERSHIP IN MONTCLAIR. BOTH FOUND THE TRANSMISSION TO BE COMPLETELY BURNT AND INOPERABLE. THERE IS A SERIOUS PROBLEM WITH THE DESIGN OF THE ACURA TL TRANSMISSION THAT CAN LEAD TO ACCIDENTS AND/OR CAR FIRES. *TR

POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION, EQUIPMENT:MECHANICAL
WHILE DRIVING THE TRANSMISSION SLIPPED ALMOST INTO NEUTRAL AND HAS PROGRESSED TO GET WORSE CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO RUN FOR A FEW MOMENTS AND THEN NOT MOVE AT ALL UNTIL IT SITS FOR 20-30 MINUTES. I HAVE CONTACTED ACURA AND MY VEHICLE HAS HAD THE RECALL DONE SO I CONTACTED MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP TO SEE IF THERE WAS ANY KIND OF WARRANTY ON THE RECALL AND WAS TOLD NO. THIS VEHICLE HAS LESS THEN 70,000 MILES ON IT AND HAS HAD ALL MAINTENANCE MAINTAINED ON IT. UPON RESEARCHING THE PROBLEM I'M APPARENTLY NOT THE ONLY OWNER WHO HAS HAD THIS PROBLEM AND SOMEONE IS GOING TO GET SERIOUSLY INJURED OR POSSIBLY LOOSE THEIR LIFE IF THE MANUFACTURE DOES NOT FIX THESE PROBLEMS. MY FIRST ENCOUNTER I WAS EXCHANGING FROM ONE MAJOR HIGHWAY TO ANOTHER AND BECAUSE MY CAR ACCELERATED AND THEN STOPPED IF I WOULDN'T HAVE GONE OFF ONTO THE SHOULDER, WHO KNOWS WHERE I WOULD BE TODAY. *TR

POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
TRANSMISSION IN MY 2003 ACURA TLS HAD BEEN RECALLED OCT, 5TH, 2004 FOR AN OIL JET INSTALL. I BOUGHT THE VEHICLE USED FROM A CERTIFIED ACURA DEALERSHIP IN FRANKLIN, TN. ON JUNE 3RD, 2006. WAS NEVER DISCLOSED OF THIS ISSUE. I LEARNED OF THIS PROBLEM ON NHTSA WEB SITE. RECENTLY IN MARCH OF 2009 AND WITH 95,000 MILES ON THE CAR, I NOTICED A HESITATION WHILE ACCELERATING. I TOOK THE CAR TO MY DEALER AND THEY SAID THE TRANSMISSION HAD TO BE REPLACED. MY WARRANTY WAS UP AT 100,000 MILES. THEY REPLACED THE TRANSMISSION, OR SO THEY SAY, AND IT HAD THE SAME PROBLEMS AS I DROVE IT OFF THE DEALER LOT. UPON RETURNING THE CAR TO THE DEALER THE NEXT DAY, THEY ASSURED ME THEY WOULD REPLACE THAT 2ND TRANSMISSION WITH A 3RD. HOWEVER, THE WARRANTY WOULD ONLY COVER TO THE ORIGINAL 100,000 MILE EXTENSION LEAVING ME WITH 5 THOUSAND MILES TO TEST THIS 3RD TRANSMISSION. THE KNOWN FAILURE RATE ON THESE(CHECK NHTSA) IS ASTOUNDING. WHAT IS WRONG WITH THESE TRANSMISSIONS? ARE THEY PUTTING THESE SAME KNOWN DEFECTIVE PARTS INTO THESE REMANUFACTORED TRANSMISSIONS? WHY DOESN'T ACURA STAND BEHIND EACH ONE WITH A NEW SEPARATE WARRANTY? *TR

TIRES, TIRES:SIDEWALL
TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2000 ACURA TL. THE VEHICLE HAS SUNNY SUN 3800 TIRES, SIZE 225/40/ZR18 (NA). WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 30 MPH ON NORMAL ROAD CONDITIONS, THE VEHICLE BEGAN PULLING IN ONE DIRECTION. THE DRIVER PULLED OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND INSPECTED THE VEHICLE. HE OBSERVED THAT THE FRONT DRIVER'S SIDE TIRE EXPLODED. IN ADDITION, THE SIDEWALL OF THE TIRE EXHIBITED SEVERE CRACKING. ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE WAS CALLED TO THE SCENE AND THEY REPLACED THE TIRE WITH A SPARE. THE VEHICLE RESUMED NORMAL OPERATION AND WAS TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED TIRE SHOP. THE TECHNICIAN STATED THAT THEY WERE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR THE REPLACEMENT OF THE DEFECTIVE TIRE AND IT WAS NOT IN STOCK. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DIFFERENT AUTHORIZED TIRE SHOP FOR A SECOND OPINION AND THE TECHNICIAN STATED THAT THE DEFECTIVE COMPOUND CONTRIBUTED TO THE SIDEWALL FAILURE. THE FOUR TIRES WERE REPLACED AT THE CONTACT'S EXPENSE. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGES WERE 171,000.

POWER TRAIN:MANUAL TRANSMISSION
THERE IS NO INJURY. I HAVE A 2007 ACURA TL TYPE S WITH A 6 SPEED MANUAL. THE CLUTCH BEGAN TO SLIP AND NOT OPERATE LIKE IT DID BEFORE. I HAVE DRIVEN STICK SHIFT FOR 5 YEARS. THIS IS NOT MY FIRST MANUAL CAR BUT MY 7TH MANUAL CAR. I KNOW HOW TO DRIVE MANUAL. THE CLUTCH GAVE OUT AT AROUND 28,000. ACURA OF RIVERSIDE HAS LOOKED AT IT AND SAID THE CLUTCH IS NO GOOD AND NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. HE ALSO SAID A FEW WEEKS AGO ANOTHER ACURA TL TYPE S HAS REPLACED THE CLUTCH. THE SERVICE TECH HAS QUOTED ME OVER $2,000 TO GET THE CAR WORKING. I BELIEVE THAT ACURA HAS A PROBLEM WITH THE MANUAL TRANSMISSION AS THEY DID WITH THE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION IN THE PASS. MY OTHER CARS LASTED BETWEEN 120K TO 150K WITH THE FACTORY CLUTCH. I HAVE RESEARCH ONLINE AND OTHER PROBLEM ARE HAVING THIS PROBLEM. IT IS ONLY FAIR THAT THEY FIX THIS ISSUE AS A DEFECTIVE INSTEAD OF MAKING THE CONSUMER PAY FOR THEIR PROBLEMS. THEY REFUSED TO FIX IT AND CONSIDER IT MY FAULT. I BELIEVE IT IS A ON GOING PROBLEM AND I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE WITH THIS PROBLEM. *TR

POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
ON MARCH 20, 2009 I EXPERIENCED SHIFTING PROBLEMS SUSPECTED TO BE THE TRANSMISSION. THE VEHICLE WAS DIAGNOSED TO HAVE TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS BY A MECHANIC THAT SPECIALIZES IN TRANSMISSIONS. I CALLED HONDA CORPORATE OFFICE (CASE #B012009-03-2000-288) AND EXPLAINED THE PROBLEM TO A REPRESENTATIVE. I WAS TOLD THAT I WOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR THE INSPECTION AND NEW TRANSMISSION BEING THAT THE RECALL THAT AFFECTED MY VEHICLE HAD BEEN FIXED. I COMPLAINED TO THE ACURA DEALERSHIP THAT SINCE THE PURCHASE OF THE VEHICLE, IT HAS A STRAINING NOISE EACH TIME I DROVE THE VEHICLE; HOWEVER, THE TECHNICIANS COULD NOT LOCATE THE PROBLEM EVERY TIME I TOOK THE CAR TO SERVICE IT AT OPEN ROAD ACURA IN WAYNE, NJ. THERE IS NO REASON FOR A 2003 ACURA TL WITH 90,000 MILES TO HAVE TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS. THE TRANSMISSION PROBLEM THAT I'M CURRENTLY EXPERIENCING APPEARS TO BE RELATED TO THE RECALL THAT WAS SUPPOSEDLY FIXED BY THE DEALERSHIP. FURTHERMORE, THE ACURA REPRESENTATIVE INFORMED ME THAT CERTAIN CARS THAT WERE RECALLED (INCLUDING 2003 ACURA TL) HAD THE WARRANTY FOR THE TRANSMISSION EXTENDED FOR UP TO 7 YEARS AND NINE MONTHS OR 100,000 MILES. PRESENTLY, I FALL UNDER BOTH CRITERIAS. CURRENTLY, THE ACURA HAS A LITTLE LESS THAN 91,000 AND HAVE OWNED IT SINCE SEPTEMBER 2002. PLEASE GUIDE ME WHAT I SHOULD DO REGARDING THIS ISSUE. I AM IN NO POSITION TO PAY FOR THE TRANSMISSION IF IT SEEMS TO BE RECALL THAT THE AUTOMAKER SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR. THANK YOU IN ADVANCE. *TR
