STARTING IN NOV 2019 MY ACURA TLX STARTED TO SPONTANEOUSLY DECELERATE AND LOSE ENGINE POWER WHEN IN MOTION. ERROR CODE OF P0087 WAS PROVIDED BY ACURA OF MILFORD, CT AND WAS HIGHLY SUGGESTIVE OF REPLACING HIGH PRESSURE FUEL PUMP. THE ENGINE FUEL PUMP WAS REPLACED IN EARLY DEC 2019 HOWEVER THE CAR CONTINUED WITH LOSS OF POWER, TERRIBLE GAS MILEAGE, POOR ACCELERATION AND MULTIPLE WARNINGS ILLUMINATED. ACURA OF MILFORD WAS CONTACTED AND THEY NOTED IT MAY BE THE OTHER FUEL PUMP THAT NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE SECOND IN TANK FUEL PUMP WAS REPLACED MID DEC 2019 WITH NO IMPROVEMENT. THE CAR WAS BROUGHT TO ACURA DEC 31, 2019 AND THEY SAID THERE WAS NOTHING TO BE FOUND, THEY RESET THE P0087 CODE AND DID A HARD RESET. THE CAR STILL CONTINUED WITH THE SAME SYMPTOMS BUT NOW WITH A HUMMING NOISE PRESENT. IN FEB 2020, THE FUEL RAIL AND SENSOR WAS REPLACED, YET STILL NO IMPROVEMENT. THE CAR WAS TAKEN BACK TO ACURA AND ONCE AGAIN THEY RESET THE ERROR CODE AND NOTED THEY ONLY FOUND CORROSION NEAR THE SENSOR AND THEY CLEANED IT OFF. CAR WAS DRIVING MUCH WORSE NOW AND IF IT LOSS POWER IT WOULD NOT START UP UNLESS CRANKED 15-25 TIMES IN A 10 MIN WINDOW. MARCH 2020 THE SPARK PLUGS WERE REPLACED AND THE CAR IS STILL NOT DRIVING RIGHT, ALL SYMPTOMS STILL PRESENT AND THE HUMMING NOISE IS GETTING LOUDER. THIS CAR HAS LOSS POWER WHILE IN MOTION RANDOMLY IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC, BOTH ON STREET AND MOST DANGEROUSLY ON THE HIGHWAY, EMBARRASSING BUT THANKFUL TO SOME GOOD SAMARITANS THAT HAVE EXITED THEIR

WHILE DRIVING STRAIGHT OR TURNING LEFT OR RIGHT, OCCASIONALLY THE CAR WILL FAIL TO ACCELERATE WHEN THE GAS PEDAL IS PRESSED. THE ENGINE APPEARS TO GO TO AN IDLE SPEED FOR 1-2 SECONDS AND THEN THE CAR ACCELERATES. THIS HAS BEEN BROUGHT TO THE ATTENTION OF THE LOCAL DEALER MULTIPLE TIMES BUT THEY (AND ACURA) ARE UNABLE OR UNWILLING TO FIX THIS PROBLEM. I HAVE SENT THEM VIDEO OF THE TACHOMETER DROPPING TO ~900RPM WHEN THIS HAPPENS. THEY STATE THERE ARE NO ERROR CODES OR INFORMATION THAT INDICATES ANYTHING IS WRONG. THIS SEEMS TO MATCH SAFETY PROBLEMS 11121786, 10775339, 10695446, AND 10694812. ANOTHER PROBLEM THE VEHICLE HAS IS A SHUDDER IN THE TRANSMISSION AT CERTAIN SPEEDS. SHIFTING TO A DIFFERENT GEAR MAKES THE SHUDDER GO AWAY. DEALER STATES THIS IS JUST HOW THE TRANSMISSION WORKS. TRANSMISSION WAS REPLACED AROUND 51K MILES. OLD TRANSMISSION DID NOT HAVE THIS PROBLEM. DEALER SAID A FLUID CHANGE MIGHT HELP. IT DID NOT.

WHILE DRIVING/ACCELERTING ON THE ENTRANCE RAMP TO A HIGHWAY, HEARD A LOUD NOISE AND SAW THAT THE SUNROOF EXPLODED. TEMP OUTSIDE WAS 55 DEGREES, CLEAR SKIES. APPROX SPEED 40MPH.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 ACURA TLX. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 65 MPH THE GLASS SUNROOF EXPLODED WITHOUT IMPACT. THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE WAS NOT DETERMINED. THE CONTACT INDICATED THAT THE FAILURE OCCURRED ON A CLEAR DAY WITH WEATHER TEMPERATURES OF 60 DEGREES. THE LOCAL DEALER SERRAMONTE ACURA (475 SERRAMONTE BLVD, COLA CA) WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 80,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 ACURA TLX. THE CONTACT STATED THE CHECK ADMISSION AND THE CHECK PARKING BRAKE SYSTEM WARNING LIGHTS INTERMITTENTLY ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER FOR A DIAGNOSIS (SCANLON ACURA LOCATED AT 14270 S TAMIAMI TRAIL, FORT MYERS, FL 33912) BUT THE TECHNICIAN WAS UNABLE TO DETECT THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 27,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 ACURA TLX. WHILE DRIVING 20 MPH, THE VEHICLE JERKED WHILE ACCELERATING FROM FIRST INTO SECOND GEAR WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO JOE RIZZA ACURA (8150 W 159TH ST, ORLAND PARK, IL 60462, (708) 403-7770) WHERE IT WAS REPAIRED PER NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V640000 (POWER TRAIN). AFTER THE RECALL REPAIR WAS PERFORMED, THE FAILURE CONTINUED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE SAME DEALER TWICE, BUT WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 33,000.

THE CAR AUTOMATICALLY SWITCHES TO NEUTRAL AND SHUTS OFF WHILE DRIVING. I BOUGHT THE CAR BRAND NEW FROM JOHN EAGLE ACURA AND HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM THE ENTIRE TIME THAT I HAVE OWNED THE VEHICLE. THE DEALERSHIP REPLACED THE TRANSMISSION AND STARTER ON THE CAR LESS THAN 3 MONTHS AFTER PRUCHASE. THE CAR CONTINUES TO SWITCH GEARS ON ITS OWN AND SHUTS OFF! THE DEALERSHIP SAYS THAT NOTHING IS WRONG WITH THE CAR. PLEASE BEAWARE THIS CAR IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE!!!

THE VEHICLE IS SHAKING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS , I HAVE REPLACED THE TIRES ,BRAKES , RIMS AND THE VEHICLE I AM TOLD FROM THE DEALER THAT MY VEHICLE DOESN'T APPLY TO KNOWN ISSUE AND THERE'S NOTHING I CAN ABOUT IT , I HAVE HAD IT BALANCED AND ROAD FORCED TESTED WITH NO RELIEF IT'S A CONCERN AS THE VEHICLE INSTABILITY HAS CAUSED FOR NEW HUBS AND ALREADY ON A VEHICLE LESS THAN 50K ON THE MILEAGE

ON NOV 18, 2019 WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY AT APPROX 65 MPH THE VEHICLE SPONTANEOUSLY FLASHED ALL PRESET EMERGENCY ALERTS ON THE DASHBOARD CONTINUOUSLY. AT THE SAME TIME THE VEHICLE SLOWED DOWN WITHOUT USING THE BRAKE PEDAL AND TENSION WAS FELT. THE VEHICLE WAS NO LONGER ABLE TO ACCELERATE TO KEEP UP WITH THE SPEED OF TRAFFIC FORCING MYSELF TO PULL OVER AND EVACUATE ONTO THE NEAREST EXIT RAMP. ONCE THE CAR CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP OFF THE FREEWAY THE VEHICLE KEPT ATTEMPTING TO PUT THE CAR IN 'NEUTRAL' WHEN ATTEMPTING TO PUT THE CAR IN PARK SO I COULD ALLOW FOR A SAFE SHUT OFF. UPON STOPPING AND THEN RESTARTING THE VEHICLE THE DASHBOARD CONTINUED TO DISPLAY IN A REPETITIVE PATTERN ALL THE PRESET WARNINGS/ALERTS. UPON SHUTTING OFF THE ENGINE COMPLETELY A SECOND TIME THE ALERTS NO LONGER DISPLAYED AND FLASHED REPETITIVELY ON THE DASHBOARD AND THE CAR WAS ABLE TO BE PLACED IN REVERSE THEN DRIVE WITHOUT NORMALLY WITHOUT FURTHER INCIDENT.THIS IS THE SECOND INCIDENT IN 2 WEEKS. UPON TAKING THE VEHICLE TO ACURA ELK GROVE I WAS INFORMED THAT I WOULD HAVE TO PAY $195 FOR A DIAGNOSTIC TEST SINCE THE CAR HAD SURPASSED 50K MILES AND NO LONGER UNDER FACTORY WARRANTY. THIS VEHICLE WAS SERVICED BY ACURA ELK GROVE FOR THE SAME COMPLAINT WITHIN THE LAST 3 YEARS. THE FIRST INCIDENT OCCURRED WHILE DRIVING APPROX 45MPH ON A CITY STREET REQUIRING ME TO PULL OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AS THE CAR DECELERATED ON ITS OWN WITHOUT USE OF THE BRAKE PEDAL.

MY CAR HAS ABOUT 74000 MILES, AND ACURA HAS CHANGED THE TRANSMISSION AND TCM ONCE ALREADY. ON OCTOBER 23, 2019 WHILE DRIVING AT A SPEED OF ABOUT 55 MILES/HR (ON HIGHWAY) ALL THE ALERTS AND INDICATORS LIT UP YET AGAIN IN THE DASHBOARD AND THE CAR SHIFTED TO NEUTRAL AND I COULD NOT SHIFT ANY GEARS WHATSOEVER. WITHIN SECONDS CAR CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP AND THE INDICATORS SAID TO PUT THE CAR IN PARK GEAR AS SOON AS POSSIBLE, WHICH I DID. AT THIS TIME I WAS IN LEFT LANE WITH BAD WEATHER AND ALMOST GOT HIT BY A FEW CARS. I WAS SCARED AND LITERALLY ANYTHING COULD HAVE HAPPENED. THIS HAPPENED ONCE BEFORE AS WELL, BUT SHUTTING DOWN AND RESTARTING WORKED - DEALER WAS NOTIFIED BUT NOTHING WAS DONE. THIS TIME I WAS STRANDED. I AM SCARED ABOUT MY AND MY FAMILY'S SAFETY. MY STORY IS VERY LONG STARTING FROM DAY 1 WHEN I BOUGHT THIS CAR ON MARCH 1, 2015 AT POHANKA ACURA IN CHANTUILLY VA (THE DEALERSHIP), BUT THE SPACE IS NOT ALLOWING ME TO WRITE THE COMPLETE STORY. ACURA IS NOT DOING MUCH TO RESOLVE THIS ISSUE OR THE DEALERSHIP IS NOT TELLING ME THE WHOLE TRUTH!

ALL REPAIRS TO MY CAR HAVE BEEN PERFORMED AT THE ACURA DEALOR- POHANKA ACURA LOCATED IN CHANTILLY, VA. I HAVE HAD NUMEROUS PROBLEMS SINCE BUYING THE CAR ON MARCH 1, 2015. APART FROM RECALLS, THE MAIN CONCERN HAS BEEN TRANSMISSION, I HAVE GONE BACK AND FORTH PROBABLY 30 TIMES FOR SAME ISSUE - TRANSMISSION, YET THE PROBLEM PERSISTS DESOITE IT BEING CHANGED ONCE ALREADY. I AM TIRED OF WASTING TIME AT ACURA DEALOR. ON OCTOBER 23, 2019 WHILE DRIVING AT A SPEED OF ABOUT 55 MILES/HR ALL THE ALERTS AND INDICATORS LIT UP YET AGAIN IN THE DASHBOARD AND THE CAR SHIFTED TO NEUTRAL AND I COULD NOT SHIFT ANY GEARS WHATSOEVER. WITHIN SECONDS CAR CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP AND THE INDICATORS SAID TO PUT THE CAR IN PARK GEAR AS SOON AS POSSIBLE, WHICH I DID. AT THIS TIME I WAS IN LEFT LANE WITH BAD WEATHER AND ALMOST GOT HIT BY A FEW CARS. I WAS SCARED AND LITERALLY ANYTHING COULD HAVE HAPPENED. I CALLED POHANKA ACURA AND THEY SAID THERE'S NOTHING I COULD DO TO EVEN BRING THE CAR IN NEUTRAL TO GET IT OUT OF LEFT LANE TO MOVE IT TO SHOULDER. THE ALERTS HAD COME ON ONCE BEFORE AS WELL, AT WHICH TIME I NOTIFIED THE DEALORSHIP - THEY DISREGARDED THE ISSUE SAYING THAT NO ONE ELSE HAS REPORTED THIS. THE ALERTS WENT AWAY AFTER SHUTTING OFF AND RESTARTING THE CAR. NOT THIS TIME. I WAS LEFT STRANDED IN LEFT LANE. I AM SCARED AND CONCERNED ABOUT MINE AND MY FAMILY'S SAFETY. ARE THE TECHNICIANS AT POHANKA ACURA NOT TRAINED TO TROUBLESHOOT THE ISSUES? WHY DID I HAD TO GO AND SPEND HOURS AT A TIME TO TROUBLE

CAR CONSTANTLY SHIFTS HARD BETWEEN GEARS 1-2 AND WHEN TRAVELING DOWN HILL RPMS INCREASE AND WHEN THE THE BOTTOM OF HILL IT SHIFTS HARD IN GEAR. THE VCM MAKES THE CAR FEEL LIKE IT'S GOING TO FALL APART THE SYSTEM IS FAULTY CAUSE DAMAGES TO OTHER CAR COMPONENTS. WHEN SHIFTING INTO PARK ON MY PRETTY MUCH FLATS ROAD THE CAR ROLLS FORWARD ALL THE TIME.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 ACURA TLX. WHILE DRIVING 35 MPH, THE VEHICLE SEIZED WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO RESTART THE IGNITION AND DRIVE TO HER DESTINATION. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO JAY WOLFE ACURA (LOCATED AT 1029 W 103RD ST, KANSAS CITY, MO 64114, (816) 656-2281) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE BATTERY NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED, BUT THE FAILURE CONTINUED. WHILE THE CONTACT'S HUSBAND WAS PARKING THE VEHICLE AND PRESSING THE PARK BUTTON, IT FAILED AND THE VEHICLE ROLLED FORWARD AND STRUCK A ROCK. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE GEAR DISPLAYED THAT IT WAS IN PARK; HOWEVER, THE VEHICLE WAS STILL PLACED IN NEUTRAL. THE CONTACT ASSOCIATED THE FAILURE WITH NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V640000 (POWER TRAIN). THERE WERE NO INJURIES AND A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE WAS NOT DETERMINED. THE MANUFACTURER AND DEALER WERE NOT NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 20,000.

THE CAR HAS AN INTERMITTENT PROBLEM WHERE THE CAR DIES COMPLETELY AFTER IT COMES TO A STOP (NUMEROUS TIMES) AND IT CAN BE TURN ON FOR A FEW MINUTES. THERE HAS BEEN INCIDENTS WHERE I HAVE COME CLOSE TO BE HIT IN THE REAR OF THE CAR (BY OTHER CARS) BECAUSE THE CAR WON'T RE-START IMMEDIATELY. DEALERS HAVE TRY TO FIX THE PROBLEM BUT THE SITUATION REMAINS THE SAME.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 ACURA TLX. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE ENGINE START-STOP SYSTEM FAILED TO RESTART THE ENGINE AFTER A COMPLETE STOP. THE CONTACT HAD TO MANUALLY RESTART THE VEHICLE HIMSELF. THE FAILURE WAS EXPERIENCED NUMEROUS TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO GUNN ACURA (11911 IH 10 WEST, SAN ANTONIO, TX 78230, (210) 817-1328) AND STERLING ACURA (4801 S IH 35 FRONTAGE ROAD, AUSTIN, TX 78744, (512) 691-3800) TO BE DIAGNOSED, BUT NO FAILURE CODES WERE FOUND. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 21,000.

THE PAINT IS PEELING AROUND THE BACK WINDSHIELD, CAUSING IT TO BEGIN TO RUST. I REPORTED IT TO ACURA A YEAR AGO WHEN IT WAS FIRST NOTICED AND THEY REFUSE TO FIX IT DUE TO THE WARRANTY BEING EXPIRED. SEVERAL OTHER OWNERS OF THE EXACT SAME MODEL CAR HAVE REPORTED ISSUES, BUT IT IS HIT OR MISS ON IF THE DEALERSHIP WHERE IT WAS PURCHASED IS WILLING TO MAKE THE REPAIRS.

THE VSA PROBLEM LIGHT & FORWARD COLLISION WARNING PROBLEM LIGHT CAME UP WHILE DRIVING AND THE VEHICLE STOPPED & STALLS ALL IN A SUDDEN. NOT SURE IF THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE, BUT ALMOST GOT INTO A CAR ACCIDENT. PLEASE HELP! THANK YOU

2015 ACURA TLX 2.4 MODEL HAS JERKING BETWEEN 1 AND 3RD GEAR. WHILE DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY IF FEELS AS IF THE WHEEL ALIGNMENT IS OFF HAD A WHEEL ALIGNMENT DONE DIDN'T FIX PROBLEM. STEERING WHEEL NEEDS TO BE HELD AT AN ANGLE TO DRIVE STRAIGHT. WHEN TRYING TO START THE CAR I'LL HEAR A CLICKING SOUND INSTEAD OF IT STARTING. NEEDS A JUMP TO START HAPPENED 3 TIMES ALREADY. BATTERY WAS TESTED RESULTS THAT I HAVE GOOD BATTER LIFE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 ACURA TLX. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE EXPERIENCED A LOSS OF POWER AND THE GEAR SHIFTED INTO NEUTRAL. ALL THE WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. WHEN THE CONTACT TURNED OFF AND RESTARTED THE VEHICLE, IT RESUMED NORMAL OPERATION. WALKER ACURA (8951 VETERANS MEMORIAL BLVD, METAIRIE, LA 70003, (504) 464-4004) WAS CONTACTED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND DID NOT ASSIST. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 189,000.

AT 70 MPH THE VEHICLE LOST POWER, ALL WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON, I HAD TO MANEUVER THRU TRAFFIC AND DRIFT TO THE SHOULDER, THE TRANSMISSION WAS LOCKED UP AND COULD NOT BE SHIFTED FROM PARK TO ANY GEAR, THE ACCELERATOR WOULD NOT WORK. THE CAR HAD TO BE TOWED.THE DEALERSHIP SAID THE VEHICLE COMPUTER HAD TO BE RE-FLASHED/PROGRAMMED. THIS CONDITION COULD HAVE CAUSED AN ACCIDENT FOR AN INEXPERIENCED DRIVER.THERE ARE NO FAULT CODES INDICATED AS TO WHY OR WHAT CAUSED THIS ISSUE. I DID FIND THROUGH RESEARCH THAT A WIRING HARNESS IS CAUSING THESE CONDITIONS IN THE MAKE, MODEL AND YEAR VEHICLE. ALSO THE TRANSMISSION IS RELATED TO THIS PROBLEM.

IN AN IMPACT WITH A PARKED CAR THAT TOTALED THE TLX , THE AIRBAGS NEVER DEPLOYED WHICH LED TO INJURY TO THE DRIVERS CHEST AND THE HIP OF THE PASSENGER IN THE FRONT OF THE CAR. THE ATTACHED PICTURE SHOW THAT THE FRONT IN IS CRUSHED WHILE THE INSIDE PICTURES SHOW THAT THE AIRBAGS NEVER DEPLOYED. AFTER THE IMPACT THE CAR COULD NOT BE CONTROLLED. PER DRIVER, SHE TRIED TO BREAK, BUT CAR DID NOT STOP. SHE TRIED TO TURN POWER OFF AT IGNITION BUT THAT DID NOT STOP. PUT CAR IN PARK BUT IT CONTINUED ROLLING BACKWARDS UNTIL THE CAR IMPACTED A RETAINING WALL DAMAGING THE BACKEND OF THE CAR. STILL, ACURA SAFETY SYSTEM NEVER DEPLOYS AIRBAGS. ACCORDING TO THE DRIVER, AFTER THE COLLISION ALL SYSTEMS FAILED. SHE WAS UNABLE TO BRAKE OR STOP THE CAR WITH GEARS OR TURNING POWER OFF. WE HAVE MORE PICTURES. IT SEEMS I WAS ONLY ABLE TO LOAD 1. *TR CONSUMER HAS REACHED OUT TO THE MANUFACTURER. 'PARTS OF THIS DOCUMENT HAVE BEEN REDACTED TO PROTECT PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).'*JB

CAR HAS AN AUTO IDLE REDUCTION INSTALLED TO SAVE ENERGY. HOWEVER, THE IDLE IS SET SO LOW THAT WHEN YOU TRY TO START OUT AFTER STOPPING FOR A TRAFFIC LIGHT, THE CAR STALLS CONTINUOUSLY.

I OPENED MY SUN ROOF AND NOW IT WON'T CLOSE. WHEN ATTEMPTING TO CLOSE THE MOON ROOF WILL REVERSE DIRECTION WHEN CONTACTING THE WIND DEFLECTOR AND WILL NOT AUTO-CLOSE EITHER. I TOOK IT INTO ACURA BUT WAS TOLD I HAD TO PAY $350 AN HOUR FOR LABOR BECAUSE THEY WOULD HAVE TO TAKE IT APART.AND PLUS PARTS, THE WARRANTY DOES NOT COVER DOES NOT COVER THIS.. I DON'T THINK IT IS ANYTHING I DID AND HAVE SEEN ON WEBSITE THIS HAS HAPPENED TO OTHER ACURA RDX VEHICLES WITHIN THE LAST YEARS.I WILL BE TAKING MY VEHICLE IN TO ANOTHER PLACE TO GET FIXED BECAUSE THINGS GET IN WHEN I DRIVE ON THE FREEWAY.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 ACURA TLX. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 75-80 MPH, THE VEHICLE INDEPENDENTLY SHIFTED FROM DRIVE INTO NEUTRAL. THE CONTACT WAS UNABLE TO SHIFT THE VEHICLE BACK INTO DRIVE. THE CONTACT TURNED THE VEHICLE OFF AND BACK ON, AND WAS ABLE TO SHIFT THE VEHICLE INTO PARK, NEUTRAL, AND DRIVE; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO FAYETTEVILLE ACURA (LOCATED AT 2022 SKIBO RD, FAYETTEVILLE, NC 28314, (910) 864-1449) WHERE DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES P0716 (PCM) AND B2A60-97 (POWER TRAIN) WERE LOCATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE VEHICLE WAS PRESENTLY STILL AT THE DEALER. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V640000 (POWER TRAIN). THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 30,000.

TRANSMISSION IS REALLY ROUGH WHEN SHIFTING TO GEARS 1,2, AND 3. IT IS GETTING WORSE THE MORE I DRIVE. ALSO, VERY SLOW AND ROUGH SHIFT FROM PARK TO DRIVE. WHEN I AM DRIVING UPHILL FROM A FULL STOP, I HEAR A LOUD THUD AND FEEL A HARD JERK WHEN SHIFTING FROM 1ST TO 2ND GEAR AND 2ND TO 3RD. WHEN I AM DRIVING DOWNHILL AND APPROACHING A STOP, IT DANGEROUSLY ACCELERATES THE CAR FORWARD AFTER SHIFTING DOWN TO 3RD, 2ND, AND 1ST GEAR. IT IS ALSO VERY ABRUPT AND JERKY DURING THOSE SHIFTS DOWN.

TRAVELING ON INTERSTATE IN THE MIDDLE LANE WHEN MY CARS TRANSMISSION WENT IN TO NEUTRAL AND THE INSTRUMENT PANEL STARTED TO FLASH ERROR MESSAGES I.E. STOP DRIVING WHEN SAFE TRANSMISSION PROBLEM SEE MANUAL,ELECTRICAL PARKING BRAKE PROBLEM, EMISSIONS SYSTEMS PROBLEM, TRANSMISSION SYSTEM PROBLEMS, TRANSMISSION PROBLEM APPLY PARKING BRAKE WHEN PARKED, ALL WHEEL DRIVE SYSTEM PROBLEM, AND BLIND SPOT INFO SYSTEM PROBLEM. ALL I CAN DO IS COST OVER TWO LANES OF TRAFFIC AND GET TO THE SIDE OF THE INTERSTATE IN FEAR OF AN ACCIDENT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 ACURA TLX. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO CORRECTLY SHIFT GEARS. ALL THE INDICATOR WARNING LIGHTS WERE ILLUMINATED. ADDITIONALLY, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO ACCELERATE UPON STARTING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE LOCAL DEALER RICK CASE ACURA (875 N STATE RD 7, FORT LAUDERDALE FL (954) 715-7796) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT BATTERY NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE BATTERY WAS REPLACED HOWEVER THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 60,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

THE VEHICLE IS SHAKING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS , THIS DOES THIS BETWEEN 55-75 MPH THE VEHICLE IS SHAKING IN THE CENTER OF THE CAR, THIS IS AT ALL TIMES ON HIGHWAY AND ALL ROAD CONDITIONS THIS IS ON THE AWD MODEL

THE CAR NEARLY STALLS, ROLLED BACK 3-4 FEET PRIOR TO RESTARTING AFTER THE IDLE STOP HAD IN- GAUGED. THE TRANSMISSION SHIFTS FROM 1-4 LIKE SOMEONE WHO NEVER DROVE WITH A CLUTCH, EVEN THOUGH IT IS AN AUTOMATIC. IT HESITATES AND NEARLY STALLS WHEN DOING SLOW MANEUVERING IN AND AROUND PARKING LOTS AND SLOW TRAFFIC. I HAVE NEARLY HAD ACCIDENTS DUE TO THE HESITATION IN TRAFFIC. WHEN USING CRUISE CONTROL OUT ON THE EXPRESSWAY, THE CAR WILL NOT MAINTAIN ITS SET SPEED ON A DOWNHILL GRADE, IT GETS JERKY AND INCREASES SPEED AS MUCH AS 10-12 MPH UNLESS I RIDE THE BRAKE. I HAVE HAD IT BACK TO THE DEALER TWICE NOW, THE FIRST TIME THEY DID ALL THE UPDATES ON THE COMPUTER AND FUEL PUMP...ITS JUST AS BAD IF NOT WORSE. THE CAR IS NOT SAFE AND SHOULD HAVE A COMPLETE RECALL!!! THE NEXT QUESTIONS ASK FOR A SPECIFIC TIME AND DATE...THIS IS ONGOING AND HAS BEEN HAPPENING SINCE I PURCHASED THE CAR IN JANUARY.

PICKING CHILD FROM SCHOOL, CAR WAS IDLE WHILE WAITING, ONCE I STARTED TO MOVE, THE CAR STARTED TO STALL. I TRIED TO PRESS THE GAS BUT IT WOULDN'T GO AND WHEN IT DID, IT WAS IN SHORT JERKING ACTIONS. I WAS ABLE TO GET OVER TO THE SIDE. THE FULL DASH BOARD LIT UP AND THE CAR FINALLY CUT OFF. AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS TO RESTART IT AND 45 MIN LATER, IT TURNED ON AGAIN. IT WOULDN'T GO FAST AND DRAGGED. SHOP GAVE DIAGNOSTIC AND STATED THERE WAS POSSIBLE PROBLEM W THE FUEL PUMP AND SENSORS CAUSE DASHBOARD TO LIGHT UP. THEY WERE ABLE TO TURN IT OFF. THIS WAS ON 3/15/2019. THE CAR CURRENTLY HAS MOMENTS AND THINK THERE MAY BE A BIGGER ISSUE. CALLED ACURA AND THEY STATED MY CAR VIN DOES NOT SHOW ANY RECALLS SO IF IT'S THE FUEL PUMP I WILL NEED TO PAY OUT OF POCKET. HAVE AUTO SHOP REPORT IF NEEDED

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 ACURA TLX. WHILE DRIVING 50 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED AND STOPPED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD. THE ENTIRE INSTRUMENT PANEL ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS ABLE TO RESTART, BUT STALLED AGAIN AT RED TRAFFIC LIGHTS AS THE AUTO START FEATURE MALFUNCTIONED. THE DEALER (ACURA OF AVON, 75 ALBANY TURNPIKE, CANTON, CT 06019, (860) 693-6981) REFUSED TO TURN OFF THE AUTO START FEATURE BECAUSE IT WAS AGAINST THE LAW. THE CONTACT TRAVELED TO FLORIDA AND HAD AN UNKNOWN ACURA DEALER CHANGE THE BATTERY AND CHECK THE FUEL PUMP FOR A RECALL, BUT NO FAILURE WAS FOUND. THE UNKNOWN DEALER ADVISED THE CONTACT TO PRESS THE IGNITION BUTTON EVERY TIME AND AVOID USING THE AUTO START FEATURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN.

PUSH BUTTON START OFTEN IN COLD WEATHER WILL NOT START CAR. HOWEVER, REMOTE ENGINE START FUNCTION ON THE REMOTE WILL WORK. IF CAR WAS RUNNING AND THEN TURNED OFF FOR A FEW MINUTES IN COLD, THE CAR WILL NOT RESTART UNLESS DONE THROUGH REMOTE START

IF ENGINE STALLS CAR PLACES IT SELF IN PARK AND WILL NOT LET YOU PUT IT IN NEUTRAL. THEREFORE, YOU CAN'T GET THE VEHICLE OUT OF HARMS WAY. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD.

MY AIRBAG LIGHT SUDDENLY CAME ON FOR NO REASON AND IN THE DASH BOARD IT SAYS AIRBAG SYSTEM SRS PROBLEM

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 ACURA TLX. WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE, THE TRANSMISSION, CRASH ASSIST, AND TRACTION CONTROL WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED AND THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY DECELERATED. ACURA BY EXECUTIVE (527 WASHINGTON AVE, NORTH HAVEN, CT) WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED AND DID NOT ASSIST. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 62,000.

ALMOST IMMEDIATELY AFTER BOUGHT I NOTICED MY 2015 ACURA TLX 3.5L V6 JERKED SIGNIFICANTLY BETWEEN GEARS 1-3. I HAVE A ONE-HOUR COMMUTE EACH WAY IN STOP-AND-GO FREEWAY TRAFFIC, AND THE PROBLEM IS HUGELY ANNOYING. FREQUENTLY IT JERKS SO HARD THAT MY HEAD HITS THE HEADREST REPEATEDLY. I FEEL LIKE SOMEONE REAR ENDING SLOWLY, AT THE END OF MY COMMUTE, I'M WIPED OUT FROM ALL THE JERKING BACK-AND-FORTH. THE DEALER SAYS ACURA IS CALLING THIS "A CHARACTERISTIC OF THE VEHICLE" FOR WHICH THERE IS NO FIX. APPARENTLY I JUST HAVE TO LIVE WITH IT; EVEN THOUGH ACURA HAS EXTENDED-THE WARRANTY FOR 10 YEARS OF PERIOD SEEMS LIKE ACURA DEALERSHIP DOESN'T REALLY WANNA DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. I WENT FEW ACURA DEALERSHIPS AND SHOW THEM THE RECALL NOTICE WHICH RECEIVED IN THE MAIL STILL SERVICE ADVISORS REFUSING DIAGNOSE THE ISSUE FOR FREE ALL THEY TELLING IS CHANGE THE TRANSMISSION FLUID AND PAY FOR THE DIAGNOSES. MY CAR ENGINE WAS OVERHEATED DUE TO ATF COOLANT FAN MALFUNCTION EVEN THOUGH ACURA HAD A RECALL ON ATF COOLANT, ACURA DEALERS MADE ME PAY $900. THIS CAR WILL DEFINITELY BE MY LAST ACURA IF THIS ISSUE DOES NOT GET RESOLVED. THE THOUGHT OF SPENDING REST OF THE YEARS GETTING MY HEAD BANGED AGAINST THE HEADREST IN A $40,000 CAR IS EXTREMELY UNETHICAL AND DEPRESSING. PLEASE BE KIND ENOUGH TO BE HELP ME OUT TO RESOLVE THIS ISSUE WHICH IN A QUICK MANNER FOR MINE & OTHERS SAFETY CONCERN.

I HAVE HAD THE VEHICLE INTO THE DEALER 3 TIMES (FEB 2018, JULY 2018 AND NOV 18) FOR THE SAME PROBLEM. EACH TIME THE VEHICLE STALLS AND MUST BET INTO PARK AND RESTARTED WHEN AT A STOP SIGN, STOP LIGHT OR STOPPED FOR ROAD CONSTRUCTION ON THE HIGHWAY. THE AUTOMATIC IDLE CAUSES THE CAR TO STALL. IN ORDER TO GET IT GOING MUST SHIFT INTO PARK AND RESTART. IT IS VERY FRIGHTENING BECAUSE IT HAPPENS INTERMITTENTLY. THIS HAPPENS WITH NO WARNING AND PRESENTS A SAFETY ISSUE. THE CAR IS NOT SAFE AND IS A HAZARD.

ON VARIOUS OCCASIONS, I HAVE WENT TO START MY CAR AND THE CAR'S KEYLESS ENTRY OPTION WILL WORK AND THE LIGHTS, RADIO, AC, ALL OF THAT WILL TURN ON BUT THE CAR'S ENGINE WILL NOT TURNOVER. CONSEQUENTLY, I HAVE HAD TO HAVE MY CAR JUMP STARTED FOR IT TO COMPLETELY TURN OVER. OTHER TIMES, ALL OF THE WARNING LIGHTS WILL COME ON AND SAY THAT ALL THE SAFETY FEATURES INCLUDING, LKAS, BLIND-SPOT MONITOR, BRAKE HOLD, STEERING, ETC. SYSTEMS HAVE FAILED AND ALL WARNING/ERROR LIGHTS/MESSAGES WILL POP UP AND THEN WILL GO AWAY AFTER THE CAR HAS BEEN TURNED OFF FOR 10-15 MINUTES.

I HAVE A 2015 ACURA TLX 4CYCLINDER 8 SPEED DCT BASE..VEHICLE HAVE A HEAVY VIBRATION IN GEAR AT STOP..THERE IS A HEAVY VIBRATION ON BRAKE PEDAL AND SEAT..THE WHOLE FRONT END IS SHAKING WITH HEAVY VIBRATION AND ENGINE RATTLE...TOOK CAR TO DEALER THE STATE THAT THEY FEEL THE VIBRATION IS BUT ITS THE CHARACTERISTIC OF THE CAR AND THERE IS NO FIX AT THIS TIME FROM ACURA

MY CAR'S SUN ROOF SUDDENLY EXPLODED WHILE DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY - THE GLASS SHATTERED WITH A LOUD NOISE.

WHEN STOP AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT. THE CAR GOES INTO AUTO- OFF MODE. WHEN THE LIGHT CHANGES GREEN AND YOU APPLY THE GAS. THE CAR SHIFTS TO NETRAUL AND WILL NOT GO INTO DRIVE.I HAVE TO SHUT THE CAR OFF AND TURN IT BACK ON. I HAVE HAD THIS HAPPEN THREE TIMES SINCE I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE THREE WEEKS AGO. THE CAR HAS 29632 MILES ON IT.

VEHICLE LUNGES FORWARD AFTER MAKING A COMPLETE STOP. IT'S VERY DANGEROUS AT STOP LIGHTS AND CROSSWALKS

AIRBAG AND SEATBELTS WARNING SIGN IS ON. STATES IT'S NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. THIS HAPPENED TO A FEW OTHERS AS THERE ARE FORUMS ONLINE ABOUT THIS

SPONTANEOUS EXPLOSION OF THE SUNROOF

MY CAR LOST MOTIVE POWER WHILE DRIVING ABOUT 20-25 MILES PER HOUR ON A CITY STREET. I WAS TURNING TOWARDS THE RIGHT INTO A ROUNDABOUT WHEN THE CAR WOULD NOT ACCELERATE EVEN THOUGH I WAS PRESSING ON THE GAS PEDAL. THE CAR CONTINUED TO COAST FOR A FEW SECONDS AND THEN THE ENGINE STARTED AGAIN. I DO NOT THINK THE CAR WENT INTO NEUTRAL BECAUSE I DID NOT HAVE TO PUSH THE IGNITION START BUTTON.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 ACURA TLX. AFTER THE CONTACT STARTED AND EXITED THE VEHICLE, IT ROLLED BACKWARDS. THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT THE EMERGENCY BRAKE WAS NOT ENGAGED. THE VEHICLE CAME TO A STOP WHEN IT STRUCK ANOTHER VEHICLE. THERE WERE NO INJURIES SUSTAINED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER TO BE DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 2,000.
