NHTSA Complaint #10384077 — 2005 ACURA MDX

TRANSMISSION ROUGH AND NOISY STARTING ON 35 MPH. IT NEEDS A TORQUE CONVERTER AND TRANSMISSION REPLACED. THESE CAR IS BECOME DANGERS TO DRIVE, YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT TO EXPECT ANY MOMENT. THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL DUE TO MANY MANY OTHER OWNERS HAVING THE SAME ISSUE. I JUST CALL ACURA CUSTOMER SUPPORT AND THEM SAD THAT I HAVE TO PAY FOR AN ESTIMATE ($200-300) AND THEN ($3000) FOR WORK WHICH SHOULD BE DONE, BECAUSE WARRANTY IS EXPIRED. IS THIS SOME KIND OF CATCH FOR THE CUSTOMERS RIGHT AFTER THE WARRANTY PERIOD? IT IS TOO MANY COMPLAINS ON 55,000 TO 80,000 MILES FOR THAT CAR. IS THIS SOMETHING THAT HONDA INVENTED TO COLLECT MORE MONEY FROM THE CUSTOMERS? I PERSONALLY CANNOT TRUST HONDA ANYMORE. THIS IS RIDICULOUS, A SPECIALLY IF YOU COMPARE THE PRICE ON THIS CAR, WHICH IS ALREADY OVERPRICED BASED ON THE FAKE RELIABILITY. THAT ISSUE MUST BE RECALLED BY HONDA IMMEDIATELY, IF THEY WANT TO KEEP GOOD NAME AND NOT FOLLOW THE TOYOTA, WITH THEIR PROBLEM. I WAS THINKING I AM BUYING GOD CAR, BUT I PURCHASE NOTHING BUT THE TROUBLE. *TR
