Consumer Description

PURCHASED A 2005 ACURA MDX IN SEPTEMBER 2008 - APPROXIMATELY 48,000 MILES - STILL UNDER FACTORY WARRANTY. ABOUT 6 MONTHS LATER NOTICED A NOISE/VIBRATION AT ABOUT 20 - 30 MPH WHILE ACCELERATING WHEN CAR WAS COLD. AROUND 60,000 MILES THIS NOISE/VIBRATION BECAME MORE FREQUENT AND LOUDER AT 30-40 MPH. THIS ALSO BEGAN HAPPENING WHILE ACCELERATING. WOULD DOWNSHIFT TO HAVE POWER TO MAKE IT OVER A HILL OR OVERPASS WITHOUT NOISE/VIBRATION. TOOK TO LOCAL ACURA DEALER IN MARCH 2010 TO CHECK OUT AND WAS TOLD IT WAS THE TORQUE CONVERTER. ACURA DEALER REPLACED TORQUE CONVERTER AT 67,533 MILES WITH NEW ACURA TORQUE CONVERTER (SO I WAS TOLD) - ACURA PAID FOR SOME OF REPLACEMENT. CAR NOW HAS 73,400 MILES ON ODOMETER AND SAME NOISE/VIBRATION IS BEGINNING. NOISE/VIBRATION OCCURS EVERYTIME YOU DRIVE THE CAR AND ONCE AGAIN IS GETTING MUCH LOUDER AND MORE FREQUENT. *TR
