2002 Acura TL Type S review from North America
"Good car with specific serious problems"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The transmission hesitates when going from 3rd to 2nd at 30 miles per hour.
The tires wear unusually fast.
The leather seats are already cracking.
General comments?
I like the overall performance and comfort, but Honda made some serious mistakes on the transmission.
