Consumer Description

LESS THAN 100 YARDS FROM WHERE MY WIFE STARTED OUR 2001 ACURA MDX WHILE MAKING A LEFT TURN AND ACCELERATING THE VEHICLE MADE A LOUD CLUNK AND SLID IN THE SLUSH TO THE RIGHT. THE VEHICLE WAS STILL RUNNING BUT IT WOULD NOT MOVE. WOULD NOT ALLOW US TO SHIFT INTO REVERSE OR PARK. IN NEUTRAL THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT MOVE EITHER. THERE HAS BEEN A TRANSMISSION RECALL BUT ACURA TOLD ME I WOULD NEED TO TAKE IT TO AN ACURA DEALERSHIP TO RESEARCH THE PROBLEM. WE LIVE 5-6 DRIVING HOURS FROM THE NEAREST ACURA DEALERSHIP. IT IS NOT LOGICAL TO TRY AND GET IT THERE. OUR LOCAL HONDA DEALERSHIP IS CURRENTLY INSTALLING A REBUILT TRANSMISSION SHOULD BE DONE TODAY. ARE HONDA AND ACURA NOT ONE AND THE SAME CORPORATION? I'M LOOKING FOR SOME ASSISTANCE WITH THIS. IT WAS A SAFETY RECALL AND QUITE AN EXPENSIVE REPAIR. THANK GOD MY WIFE WASN'T GOING ANY FASTER. WE ARE THE ORIGINAL OWNERS OF THE VEHICLE. THANK YOU FOR ANY HELP YOU CAN GIVE US!! *TR
