POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
TRANSMISSION FAILURE CREATED A SITUATION WHERE THERE WAS A SUDDEN LOSS OF POWER DUE TO GEAR SLIPPAGE FOLLOWED BY THE TRANSMISSION SLAMMING INTO GEAR CAUSING THE CAR TO OVER ACCELERATE CREATING A DANGEROUS CONDITION. THE MANUFACTURER HAS AGREED TO REPLACE THE TRANSMISSION, BUT TRANSMISSION FAILURES WITH THIS MODEL CAR ARE WIDELY KNOWN. THE MANUFACTURER SHOULD RECALL THESE CARS AND REPLACE THE TRANSMISSION BEFORE DANGEROUS FAILURES OCCUR. *NM

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
WHILE STOPPED, WITH FOOT ON THE BRAKE PEDAL, I WAS WAITING FOR MY GARAGE DOOR TO OPEN. THE GARAGE DOOR STARTED TO OPEN AND IT WAS ABOUT HALF WAY UP WHEN MY CAR SUDDENLY ACCELERATED. THINKING I WOULD HIT THE GARAGE DOOR AND HAVE MY HEAD TORN OFF I DUCKED TOWARDS THE PASSENGER SEAT AS BEST I COULD. THE CAR DID HIT THE GARAGE DOOR A GLANCING BLOW OFF THE WINDSHIELD AND THE ROOF. THE CAR CONTINUED TO ACCELERATE UNTIL IT HIT THE REAR WALL OF THE GARAGE. THE AIR BAGS DEPLOYED AND THE CAR HALTED. SEVERE DAMAGE TO THE CAR, MOST LIKELY TO BE TOTALED. SEVERE DAMAGE TO MY HOME. THE CAR IS A 1999 ACURA 3.2TL. I SUFFERED INJURY TO MY LEFT WRIST AND LEFT KNEE. *NM

POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
I'M AN OWNER OF A 2000 ACURA TL3.2, AND FOR THE FIRST TIME IN OVER A DECADE OF BEING A TRUE LOYAL CUSTOMER OF ACURA/HONDA, I DON'T FEEL SAFE DRIVING AN ACURA MADE VEHICLE DUE TO THE DEFECTIVE TRANMISSION. MY 2 PREVIOUS ACURAS WERE GREAT, BOTH HAD IN EXCESS OF 200K BEFORE I TRADED THEM IN AND HAD NO PROBLEM WITH THE TRANMISSION WHATSOEVER. BECAUSE OF COMPANY'S FIRST FAILED ATTEMPT AT MAKING A 5 SPEED TIPTRONIC TRANMISSION IT DOESN'T MEAN THAT THE COMPANY SHOULD ACT IRRESPONSIBLE AND ENDANGER ITS CUSTOMERS' LIVES IN THE PROCESS. WITHOUT PRIOR WARNING, THE TRANMISSION IN MY VEHICLE GOT LOCKED UP FOR A GOOD 2 TO 3 SECONDS SEVERAL TIMES WHILE I WAS DRIVING. IT FELT LIKE I HIT THE BRAKE REALLY HARD WHEN IT WENT INTO LOCKUP, AND I WAS ALMOST HIT FROM BEHIND SEVERAL TIMES. IN ADDITION, HAD IT BEEN RAINING AND THE SURFACE WAS SLIPPERY, I WOULD HAVE HYDROPLANED AND CRASHED MY CAR. AND YET AFTER EXPLAINING THE SITUATIONS TO AN AGENT AT AN ACURA DEALERSHIP, AND BEAR IN MIND THAT THERE HAVE BEEN A RECALL ISSUED IN ADDITION TO THE EXTENDED WARRANTY, HE STILL REPLIED THAT MY TRANNY IS NOT COVERED BY EITHER ONE. BASICALLY, THE RECALL EFFORT WAS JUST A PUBLICITY STUNT THAT THE COMPANY ORCHESTRATED IN HOPE OF KEEPING THE CORPORATE IMAGE. THIS IS REALLY SAD BECAUSE THEY WILL LOOSE A LOT OF LOYAL CUSTOMERS FOR GOOD.*AK

SUSPENSION, TIRES
MY CAR HAS BEEN TO THE DEALER TWICE FOR REPLACEMENT TIRES DUE TO VIBRATION THROUGHOUT MY CAR. THE SECOND TIME MY TIRES WERE REPLACED WITH THE UPDATED EL42, AND THE VIBRATIONS STILL PERSIST, ALONG WITH THE FACT THAT THE CAR NOW PULLS TO THE LEFT. WHEN I CALLED CRISWELL ACURA OF ANNAPOLIS, I WAS TOLD THAT THE PULLING TO THE LEFT WAS NOT AN ALINGMENT PROBLEM IT WAS A TIRE PRESSURE ISSUE. SO I TOOK MY CAR BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY PROPERLY INFLATED MY TIRES. AND OF COURSE MY CAR STILL PULLS TO THE LEFT. *AK

POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
HAVE OWNED THE CAR LESS THAN 1 WEEK, AND UPON DELIVERY OF THE CAR NOTICED A HIGH-PITCHED WHINE AT ABOUT 35 TO 40 MPH. THE WHINE CONTINUES UP THROUGH HIGHER SPEEDS, AND CONTINUES THROUGHOUT DECELERATION DOWN TO ABOUT 15 TO 20 MPH. TOOK INTO THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT WHO CONTACTED ACURA USA ABOUT THE PROBLEM. THEY ISOLATED THE WHINE COMING FROM THE TRANSMISSION, AND THEY ARE SENDING A NEW (?) TRANSMISSION AS A REPLACEMENT. I FEEL THAT THIS IS TERRIBLE THAT THE CAR WAS NOT DIAGNOSED WITH A PROBLEM AND THEN ALLOWED TO BE SOLD WITH A TRANSMISSION DEFECT. I WANT NOTHING SHORT OF A TOTAL REPLACEMENT. *JB

POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION:TORQUE CONVERTER, TIRES
I HAVE A 2004 ACURA TL WITH 2000 MILES ON IT. IT HAS BEEN AT THE DEALER TWICE FOR 7 TOTAL DAYS, TRYING TO CORRECT A VIBRATION BETWEEN 45 AND 60. IT IS ALSO EVIDENT AT 75-80. VIBRATION IS FELT IN SEAT, STEERING WHEEL AND PEDALS DEALER REPLACED FRONT TIRES TWICE AND FRONT RIMS ONCE. WE STILL EXPERIENCE THE VIBRATION FREQUENTLY. I CONTACTED HONDA OF AMERICA. THE REPRESENTATIVE INFORMED ME THAT THIS WAS A TORQUE CONVERTER PROBLEM KNOWN FOR APPROXIMATEL 4 MONTHS. I ASKED ABOUT RETURNING THE CAR AND WAS TOLD I WAS NOT GOING TO GET MY MONEY BACK. HE STATED THAT ENGINEERING IS LOOKING AT MODIFYING ENGINE MOUNTS. I TOLD HIM THAT WAS ONLY MASKING THE PROBLEM. HE STATED ALL 04 AND 05 MODELS HAVE THE PROBLEM! I WAS FLOORED THEY KNEW IT AND WERE STILL PUSHING CARS OUT THE DOOR AND THE DEALERSHIP WAS BLAMING THE PROBLEM ON TIRES. I ASKED ABOUT INHERENT VIBRATION IMPACT ON THE LIFE EXPECTANCY TO THE DRIVER TRAIN SEALS AND BEARINGS. THE HONDA OF AMERICA REPRESENTATIVE BECAME VERY RUDE. I GOT HIS NAME AND HUNG UP. NOT WHAT YOU WOULD EXPECT FROM HONDA OR A $35K CAR! THE DEALERSHIP SERVICE CENTERWAS APPALLED THAT HONDA AMERICA STATED THERE WAS WIDESPREAD PROBLEMS WITH THE TORQUE CONVERTER, STATED THEY NEVER HEARD OF IT AND INSISTED THIS IS A TIRE ISSUE! IT IS DESHEARTENING TO GET TWO DIFFERENT STORIES. I BELIEVE THE TIRE STORY GIVES THE HONDA CORPORATE OFFICES SOME RELIEF OF LIABILITY BY LEVERAGING OFF OF FIRESTONE FOR DEFECTS. SHOULD THE TORQUE CONVERTER BE OPENLY PURSUED AS THE CULPRIT AND JOHNQ. PUBLIC KNOWING ABOUT IT, THIS COULD BE A DRIVE A COSTLY RECALL FUNDED FROM THE POCKETS OF HONDA OF AMERICA! *AK

WHEELS:RIM
A CRACK IN THE ALLOY WHEEL RIM ON THE RIGHT FRONT OF MY 2004 ACURA WAS ASSOCIATED WITH A LOSS OF AIR PRESSURE AND LOSS OF POSITIVE TIRE SEAL RESUTILNG IN THE TIRE SEPARATING FROM THE RIM. MY WIFE WAS ABLE TO RETAIN CONTROL. AN INSPECTION BY LEITH ACURA FOUND NO EVIDENCE OF A PUNCTURE WOUND TO THE TIRE. THE SIDEWALL WAS DEFORMED TO THE POINT THAT THE TIRE WAS UNUSEABLE. LEITH ACURA AND ACURA CLIENT SERVICES REFUSED TO REPLACE THE RIM AND TIRE UNDER THE NEW CAR WARRANTY. ACURA INSISTS THAT THE RIM WAS DAMAGED AS THE RESULT OF A SEVERE IMPACT TO THE TIRE (POTHOLE ??) AND THEREFORE NOT COVERED BY THE VEHICLE WARRANTY. MY WIFE REPORTS EXPERIENCING NO SUCH IMPACT EITHER AT THE TIME OF THE INCIDENT OR DURING ANY PERIOD PRECEDING THE INCIDENT. I ASSERT THAT THE CRACK WAS THE LIKELY RESULT OF A UNDETECTED DEFECT IN THE MANUFACTURING PROCESS AND/OR THE PARTICULAR MATERIALS USED, AND THAT IT WAS THE ACCENTUATION OF THE PRE-EXISTING CRACK ASSOCIATED WITH THE 'IMPACTS' OF NORMAL DRIVING THAT CAUSED THE TIRE TO SUDDENLY FAIL.THE DEALER ASSERTS THAT THERE WAS OBSERVABLE DAMAGE TO THE RIM, BUT IS UNABLE TO DETERMINE WHETHER SUCH DAMAGE RESULTED IN THE CRACK OR THAT THE DAMAGE WAS THE RESULT OF THE RIM HAVING BEEN WEAKENED BY THE CRACK PLUS THE IMPACT OF THE RIM WITH THE ROAD SURFACE WHEN THE TIRE DEFLATED. MY UNREIMBURSED COST FOR A NEW RIM, TIRE, AND ALIGNMENT WAS $625. MY CONCERN IS THAT THIS IS AN EQUIPMENT PROBLEM, PERHAPS INHERENT TO THE USE OF ALLOY RIMS; THAT ACURA IS AWARE OF THE PROBLEM (REPORTS FREQUENT SIMILAR OCCURRENCES) AND THAT THEY SIMPLY REFUSE TO HONOR CLAIMS FOR THIS TYPE OF EQUIPMENT FAILURE UNDER THE WARRANTY. AS A HIGHWAY SAFETY RESEARCHER I AM CONCERNED THAT THIS IS A POTENTIALLY SERIOUS CRASH RISK PROBLEM OVER AND ABOVE THE PROBLEM OF MANUFACTURER AND DEALER INTEGRITY IN HONORING WARRANTY CLAIMS.*AK

POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
I RECENTLY BOUGHT A 2000 ACURA 3.2 TL WITH A 5-SPEED AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION WITH 87,000 MILES ON IT. MY TRANSMISSION HAD A BIG PAUSE WHEN SHIFTING FROM REVERSE TO DRIVE, HARD, INCONSISTENT SHIFTING, AND IT WOULD NOT SHIFT CORRECTLY WHEN GOING BETWEEN 2ND AND 3RD GEAR (AROUND 25 MPH). WHEN THIS HAPPENED BETWEEN 2ND AND 3RD GEARS, THE CAR WOULD JERK SEVERLY AND WOULD ONLY STOP IF I EITHER BRAKED OR PRESSED ON THE GAS. IN HEAVY TRAFFIC 2 WEEKS AGO, MY CAR STALLED AND THE CAR BEHIND ME ALMOST REAR-ENDED MY CAR, HOWEVER, MY CAR STARTED UP AGAIN AND I BROUGHT IT INTO WALKER ACURA IN METARIE, LA. THEY CONFIRMED THAT MY TRANSMISSION WAS FAILING (ONLY 4 MONTHS AFTER I HAD BOUGHT THE CAR AND WITH 92,000 MILES ON IT) AND THAT IT WOULD BE REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY ALONG WITH AN "AXLE STUCK IN THE TRANSMISSION". THEY HAVE FIXED THE PROBLEM, HOWEVER, MY NEW TRANSMISSION HAS BEEN IN MY CAR FOR ABOUT A WEEK NOW (ONLY 500 MILES ON IT, IT'S ONLY WARRANTIED FOR 12,000) AND IT IS ALREADY SHOWING SIGNS OF FAILING - PAUSE WHEN SHIFTING FROM REVERSE TO DRIVE, AND THE TRANSMISSION ALSO DOWNSHIFTS INTO A LOWER GEAR (EVEN IF IT DOESN'T NEED TO) AS SOON AS I TAKE MY FOOT OFF OF THE GAS PEDAL. MY NEW TRANSMISSION HAS ALSO MADE MY CAR ALOT SLOWER THAN IT WAS WHEN I FIRST BOUGHT IT. I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE MY CAR, I DON'T FEEL SAFE IN IT BECAUSE OF MY PREVIOUS TRANSMISSION MALFUNCTION AND MY BEGINNING PROBLEMS WITH MY BRAND-NEW ONE. I WOULD HAVE NOT BOUGHT THIS CAR IF I WOULD HAVE KNOWN ABOUT THE TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS, AND I WOULD HAVE NOT KNOWN ABOUT THEM IF IT WEREN'T FOR AN ONLINE FORUM FOR TL OWNERS. ACURA DID NOT SEND ME ANY TYPE OF NOTIFICATION ABOUT THEIR TRANSMISSION INSPECTION BEFORE MY TRANSMISSION FAILED. IF ACURA DOESN'T DO SOMETHING DRASTIC ABOUT THIS PROBLEM SOON, FATALITIES MAY OCCUR, AND REGARDLESS, I'M NEVER BUYING ANOTHER ACURA OR HONDA AGAIN. I THOUGHT I WAS BUYING A SAFE, DEPENDABLE CAR, BUT IT LOOKS LIKE THAT IS THE FARTHEST THING FROM WHAT I ENDED UP WITH. *AK

POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION, POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION:TORQUE CONVERTER, POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION:COOLING UNIT AND LINES
I HAVE A 2000 ACURA TL. WHILE DRIVING ON THE DELWAY MEMORIAL BRIDGE DOING ABOUT 70 MPH I NOTICED SMOKE IN MY REAR VIEW MIRROR, THEN THE CAR STARTED REVING AND NOT GOING ANYWHERE. I PULLED OVER AND NOTICED TRANMISSION FLUID AT THE SIDE OF THE CAR BEHIND THE CAR AND UNDERNEATH THE CAR. I TOOK THE CAR TO A GAS STATION ONLY TO FIND OUT THAT ITS A POSSIBILITY THAT THE TORQUE CONVERTER IN THE TRANSMISSION MUST HAVE OVERHEATED AND EXPLODED BECAUSE THE GUY COULD NOT FIND A LEAK NOWHERE. WHEN HE OPENED THE BOLT ON THE TRANSMISSION IT SMELLED LIKE SOMETHING BURNING AND SMOKE CAME OUT. I CAN RECALL ABOUT 6 MONTHS AGO I TOOK IT INTO THE DEALERSHIP TO HAVE THEM CHECK OUT THE CAR BECAUSE OF THE DRIVE FIVE LIGHT, THE HARD JERK FROM PARK TO REVERSE AND THE THUMP FROM REVERSE TO DRIVE, THE ENGINE LIGHT WAS ALSO ON. ALL THEY DID WAS REPLACE SOME SENSOR. NOW I BROUGHT IT BACK TO THEM AND THEY TOLD ME THAT I HAVE AN INTERNAL TRANSMISSION FAILURE. WHEN I BOUGHT THE CAR IT HAD 80K MILES ON IT, THIS WAS LAST MAY. WHEN I TOOK IT TO ACURA IT HAD 95K NOW IT HAS 139K ON IT AND IT CONSTANTLY JUMPS, JERKS, REV'S AND STALLS ON A REGULAR BASIS ESPECIALLY WHEN IT GETS HOT. *AK

TIRES
THE VIBRATION IN THE BRIDGESTONE EL42 TURANZA TIRES ON 2004 ACURA TL RESULTED IN ACCIDENT IN FEBRUARY 2004 AND $1500 WORTH OF UNDERCARRIAGE DAMAGE. FLATSPOTTING AND VIBRATION IN TIRES CAUSED LOSS OF CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE WHEN ATTEMPTING TO STOP THE VEHICLE IN INCLEMENT WEATHER. FLATSPOTTING AND VIBRATION STARTED 1 WEEK AFTER PURCHASE OF VEHICLE. HAVE DOCUMENTATION OF NUMEROUS ATTEMPTS TO GET THE PROBLEM RESOLVED BY DEALER, BUT DEALER WAS COMPLACENT IN DEALING WITH THE ISSUE THUS RESULTING IN THE AFORMENTIONED ACCIDENT. LOSS OF CONTROL CAUSED VEHICLE TO END UP IN ONCOMING TRAFFIC LANE ALMOST RESULTING IN HEAD ON COLLISION. CAR SLID INTO CURB CAUSING THE 1500 DAMAGE. TIRES HAVE BEEN REPLACED WITH MICHELIN PILOT SPORT TIRES. AMERICA HONDA/ACURA AND BRIDGESTONE NEEDS TO BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR THEIR COMPLACENCY IN DEALING WITH THIS ISSUE. PLEASE INVESTIGATE QUICKLY AS LIVES CAN BE AT STAKE. *AK
