Consumer Description

NOW ON 3RD TRANSMISSION. 2ND OWNER REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY ABOUT 9 MOS. PRIOR TO MY PURCHASE (I AM 3RD OWNER). TRANSMISSION BLEW ABOUT 1 YEAR AFTER I PURCHASED THE CAR AND I PURCHASED NEW TRANSMISSION THROUGH ACURA WHO OFFERED ABSOLUTELY NO ASSISTANCE EVEN THOUGH THIS IS A KNOWN DEFECT. WHEN THE TRANSMISSION FAILED, WE WERE TRAVELING ON A HIGHWAY AT APPROX. 65 MPH AND CAR VIOLENTLY DOWNSHIFTED, NEARLY CAUSING LOSS OF CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. ACURA IS NOT TAKING RESPONSIBILITY FOR THESE TRANSMISSIONS. THE TRANSMISSION THAT THE 2ND OWNER HAD PUT IN WAS A TRANSMISSION THAT SUPPOSEDLY HAD BEEN MANUFACTURED TO CORRECT THE KNOWN PROBLEM. OBVIOUSLY NOT, SINCE THE THING BLEW WITH ONLY 77K MILES ON IT! 152K MILES ON THIS CAR AND 3 TRANSMISSIONS. RIDICULOUS. *TR
