Consumer Description

DROVE VEHICLE ON THE HIGHWAY AND NOTICED A VIBRATION IN THE FRONT END. ALSO NOTICED WHEN DRIVING VEHICLE IN THE MORNING A VIBRATION THAT FELT LIKE DRIVING OVER RUBBLE STRIPS. TALKED TO MY DAUGHTER (PRIMARY DRIVER) AND SHE SAID THE VIBRATION HAS BEEN OCCURRING FOR A COUPLE OF MONTHS, BUT NOT CONSISTENTLY. DID SOME RESEARCH AND TOOK VEHICLE TO A TRANSMISSION MECHANIC. NEED A NEW TRANSMISSION. BOUGHT THIS ACURA IN 2006 AS A CERTIFIED VEHICLE FROM DEALER WITH 43K MILES. TORQUE CONVERTER WAS REPLACED IN 2009 AT 90K MILES. NEED A NEW TRANSMISSION AT 156K. I EXPECTED MORE FROM A HONDA VEHICLE.
