2003 Acura TL review from North America
"Great riding car, but not worth it if tranny is bad"
General comments?
I'm glad I'm reading all this feedback on the vehicle. I bought mine at Carmax over the weekend. With all this feedback, I'm thinking that I'll return the vehicle within the 5 day return window that they offer. Its such a shame because the vehicle rides like a charm. I don't want to just pick up the extended service plan, because you never know where you will be when the tranny fails. Its potentially dangerous! I called an Acura dealer today to perform a buyers inspection. I asked the service guy about the tranny problem. I told him that it had 50K on it. He said that he usually finds that they fail before 50K! He offered that Acura will fix them for free up to 101000 miles. Small consolation, though!
