Consumer Description

WE HAVE A 2005 ACURA RL. DURING DRIVING, THE ENTIRE POWER DROPS. WITHOUT ELECTRICITY TO ALL COMPONENTS, THE POWER STEERING GOES, THE ENGINE STOPS, ALL LIGHTS ON THE DASH BOARD OFF. AFTER A FEW SECONDS TO A MINUTE, THE POWER COMES BACK. BUT THE CAR WILL BE SHOWING ALL KINDS OF ERROR MESSAGES. THE TRANSMISSION WILL BE AT A WRONG GEAR. ACURA DEALER SERVICE CAN REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM BUT FOR OVER ONE MONTH, THEY CANNOT FIX IT BECAUSE THEY DO NOT KNOW WHAT IS WRONG. THE DRIVER AT HE DEALERSHIP WHO EXPERIENCED THE PROBLEM WAS SO SCARED AND THE DEALER TOLD US THE CAR IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS TO DRIVE. *TR
