NHTSA Complaint #10514419 — 2003 ACURA TL

I OWNED A 02 TL FIRST AND REPLACED THE TRANS IN IT 3 TIMES WHEN ACURA SUPPOSEDLY FIXED IT WELL THEY DIDN'T AND WOULDN'T HONOR THEIR WORK SO I PAID $3500 FOR ANOTHER TRANS THEN SOMEONE HIT ME TOTALED IT 3 WKS LATER! SO WE BOUGHT A 2003 ACURA TL THAT ALREADY HAD THE RECALL DONE IN JULY 2005 LITERALLY LESS THEN 24 HOURS OF PURCHASING THE CAR I WAS PICKING UP MY DAUGHTER FROM SCHOOL ON WAY HOME THE TRANSMISSION WENT!! IT STARTED JERKING REAL BAD LIKE SOMEONE WAS SLAMMING THE BRAKES ON WHICH WAS SCAREY AS HELL BECAUSE I DIDN'T WANT TO GET REAR ENDED OR CAUSE OTHERS TO BE IN ACCIDENT! HAD TO KEEP PULLING OVER SHUTTING IT OFF TO TRY TO MAKE IT HOME BUT GEARS GOT WORSE AND WORSE THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON!! I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY THEY JUST DON'T FIX THE THINGS RIGHT THE FIRST TIME AND IF NOT HONOR YOUR LUXURY REPUTATION AND STAND BY YOUR WORKMAN SHIP!! NOW I HAVE TO PAY TO TOW IT TO ACURA DEALER TO SEE IF THEY WILL CONSIDER FIXING IT. THERE SHOULD NEVER BE ANY DOUBT WHEN THOUSANDS UPON THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE HAVE HAD SAME PROBLEM TIME AND TIME AGAIN THEY SHOULD PAY FOR ALL REPAIRS GIVE US ALL A RENTAL TO DRIVE AND REIMBURSE FOR TOWING EXPENSES!! I AM TRULY SURPRISED THAT THERE IS NOT A HUGE CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT AGAINST ACURA FOR ALL OF US THAT HAVE BEEN AFFECTED BY THIS! IF SOMETHING WOULD HAVE HAPPENED WHEN MY KIDS WERE IN THE CAR GOD HELP ACURA. I TRULY HOPE ACURA GETS SOME KIND OF REPERCUSSIONS FOR ALL THIS CUZ ITS JUST RIDICULOUS AND NOW I CAN'T GET TO WORK GET TO STORE NOTHING STRANDED YET AGAIN THANKS ACURA. *TR
