Consumer Description

ENTERING FREEWAY FROM ON RAMP VEHICLE ACTED LIKE IT WAS IN NEUTRAL EVEN THOUGH IT WAS IN DRIVE. AS I ACCELERATED FROM 40 MPH THE RPM'S RACED BUT THE CAR SLOWED AS IF IT WERE IN NEUTRAL. I WAS ALMOST REAR ENDED THANKFULLY I LET OFF THE GAS AND THE TRANNY THEN GRABBED AND I WAS ABLE TO ACCELERATE TO FREEWAY SPEED. I HAVE BEEN TOLD BY DEALER THAT BOTH TRANNY AND TORQ CONVERTER ARE NO GOOD. VEHICLE HAS BEEN SERVICED PER ACURA RECOMMENDED SERVICE AT SAME DEALER SINCE BOUGHT NEW. *TR
