NHTSA Complaint #10047323 — 2001 ACURA TL

TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN, I OWN A 2001 ACURA 3.2 TL FOR 3 YEARS. I AM GOING ON MY 4TH TRANSMISSION. ACURA IS AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM THEY JUST KEEP PUTTING REBUILT TRANSMISSIONS IN A BRAND NEW CAR. THEY EXTENDED THE WARRANTY ON THE CAR TO 100,000 MILES. I CURRENTLY HAVE 82,000 MILES ON THE CAR. I HAVE TWO YEARS OF CAR PAYMENTS LEFT. THE DEALERSHIP SAID THEY WOULD SEE IF ACURA WILL EXTEND THE WARRANTY AGAIN. THAT IS FINE IF THEY DO, BUT THEY STILL HAVE NOT FIXED THE TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS YET. I HAVE LOOKED OUT ON THE INTERNET THERE ARE MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT TRANSMISSIONS IN THESE VEHICLES, BUT YET CONSUMER REPORT STILL GIVES THESE CARS THE HIGHEST RATING ON THERE TRANSMISSIONS. I ALSO FIND THAT THERE IS PENDING LAWSUIT AGAINST THE HONDA MOTOR COMPANY. I WAS WONDERING IF YOU COULD DO A STORY ON THIS CONSUMER PROBLEM AND SEE IF THERE IS OTHER PEOPLE OUT THERE THEN THE ONES THAT KNOW HOW TO USE A COMPUTER. THANKS, JACQUALINE MARTIN 9601 LOOKING GLASS COURT BRISTOW, VA 20136 (H) 703 335 0119 (C) 703 967 3991 *LA
