NHTSA Complaint #10864404 — 2015 ACURA TLX

I OWN A 2015 TLX V4 TECH AND THERE SEEMS TO BE AN OBVIOUS PROBLEM, WHICH THE DEALERSHIPS SEEMS TO NEGLECT, WITH THE TRANSMISSION. I'VE HAD MY VEHICLE CHECKED OUT 2 TIMES SINCE I FIRST PURCHASED IT BACK IN JULY OF 2015, AND THE DEALERSHIP TECH. SPECIALISTS KNOW IT IS THERE BUT THEY AREN'T ABLE TO RESOLVE THE PROBLEM EVEN THROUGH A "SOFTWARE UPDATE". THE PROBLEM IS THAT THE VEHICLE JERKS FORWARD, SOMETIME WHEN MAKING A STOP IT LAUNCHES FORWARD- AS IF SOMEONE HAD REAR-ENDED ME. THE SECONDARY PROBLEM IS THAT WHEN I MERGE ONTO THE FREEWAY THERE IS A MAJOR LAG AND THE TRANSMISSION FAILS TO SHIFT. TAKES ABOUT 3 SECONDS TO ENGAGE TO FULL SPEED WHICH IN TERMS IT'S EXTREMELY HAZARDOUS BECAUSE OF OF OTHER VEHICLES THAT CEASE TO SLOWDOWN AND GIVE ME THE RIGHT-OF-WAY. I DEMAND THE MANUFACTURER BE AWARE OF THIS ISSUES THAT I CONTEMPLATE ON A DAILY BASIS BEFORE SOMETHING TRAGIC HAPPENS TO ME OR MY FELLOW TLX DRIVERS.
