Consumer Description

BEGINNING IN 2006 I STARTED TO EXPERIENCE A HESITATION AND A HISSING SOUND IN MY 2005 ACURA MDX AT HWY AND LOCAL RD SPEED FOR THE PAST THREE YEARS I HAVE TAKEN THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP ONLY TO GET THE SAME RESPONSE OF UNABLE TO DUPLICATE. I RECENTLY TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP AGAIN ON 11/09 AND THIS TIME THEY WERE ABLE TO DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM WHICH WAS A BAD TORQUE CONVERTER WHICH REQUIRED THE REPLACEMENT OF THE TRANSMISSION. THE DEALER CLAIMED THE ISSUE STARTED AT 58,000 MILE AND THEREFORE OUT OF WARRANTY. THE DEALER WANTS $4000.00 TO REPLACE TRANSMISSION. STILL CONTEMPLATING OFFER. I HAVE DISCOVERED BLOGS THAT STATES AN ONGOING TORQUE CONVERTER AND TRANSMISSION PROBLEM WITH THE ACURA MDX FROM 2001--2005 INCLUDING A RECALL FOR 2001-2002. *TR
