Consumer Description

I HAVE A 2001 ACURA MDX, LAST YEAR IT BEGAN NOT SHIFTING INTO 2ND GEAR AND I COULDN'T GO OVER 20-25 MPH. I CONTACTED MY LOCAL ACURA DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID I WAS OUT OF WARRANTY AND THEY COULDN'T DO ANYTHING. AFTER INSISTING, THEY HAD ME BRING IT IN FOR THEM TO LOOK AT IT AND THEY SAID IT WAS MY TORQUE CONVERTER. I HAD ANOTHER MECHANIC TEST IT AND HE COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING AND SUGGESTED IT WAS MY TRANSMISSION. ACURA WANTED TO CHARGE BE $3-4,000 TO REPAIR. DIDN'T HAVE THAT KIND OF MONEY FOR A CAR REPAIR THAT SHOULD HAVE HAPPENED ON A CAR I SPENT $40,000 ON. NOW AGAIN, IT IS DOING IT. THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF COMPLAINTS AND I CANNOT BELIEVE SOMEONE IS NOT MAKING THEM CORRECT THIS PROBLEM. PLEASE HELP. *TR
