NHTSA Complaint #10209629 — 2000 ACURA CL

IN OCTOBER 2007, I BEGAN TO HAVE PROBLEMS WITH MY 2000 ACURA 3.2TL. THE CAR JERKED WHEN I PUT IT IN REVERSE AND AS IT CHANGED GEARS IT STARTED SHAKING. I HAD IT CHECKED DURING AN OIL CHANGE THAT MONTH AND WAS TOLD IT WAS OK. THE PROBLEM CONTINUED AN DIN NOVEMBER I TOOK IT IN TO MCDANIELS ACURA IN COLUMBIA, SC. I WAS TOLD THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE TRANSMISSIONS AND THAT THE RECALL EXPIRED DUE TO VEHICLE MILEAGE. I INFORMED THE GENERAL MANAGER I DID NOT RECEIVE RECALL INFORMATION. AFTER CONTACTING THE ACURA CORPORATION, I WAS INFORMED SINCE I WAS NOT THE ORIGINAL OWNER, I DID NOT RECEIVE THE INFORMATION. I AM THE REGISTERED OWNER AND INFORMATION WAS NOT SENT TO ME. NOW, I AM FACING $4000 IN REPAIRS ON A VEHICLE I AM STILL PAYING ON. *TR
