What things have gone wrong with the car?

Transmission defect imposes a severe safety hazard to Acura drivers and passengers.

General comments?

The intention of this review is to advise current and prospective owners of Acura automobiles that are subject to defective transmissions.

After 5 replacement transmissions, I finally reached a settlement with Acura, after having to retain a skilled attorney. It is too grievous to mention the time, energy and frustration resulting from American Honda's ability to make good on the repairs. Being nice, such as trying to work with the dealerships, better business bureau, mediation, Acura client service, etc. does not work.

I recommend anyone experiencing any issue with transmission to obtain an attorney right away.

- I am very surprised to read that remark about this car after having heard many times how "world class" it is.

Apparently you haven't read too many reviews about the TL on this site... soo many blue faces.

I agree. I am the owner of a Acura 2002 and my transmission is gone for the 3rd time in less than 7 years. This should be a a recall and complete refund to these owners for repairs and time... Rita.
