Consumer Description

I PURCHASED MY 2001 ACURA MDX IN MARCH 2019. SINCE PURCHASE THE CAR CONSISTENTLY MAKES A LOUD CLUNK WHEN SHIFTING THE GEAR SHIFTER INTO REVERSE. IT ALSO CLUNKS CONSISTENTLY GOING FROM PARK TO DRIVE. THERE IS HESITATION IN THE CARS SHIFTING. AT TIMES I EITHER HAVE TO SPEED UP OR LET SPEED OFF FOR A TRANSMISSION SHIFT TO OCCUR. THE CAR SHUDDERS HORRIBLY WHEN BRAKING AT LOW OR MEDIUM SPEEDS. IT FEELS UNSAFE AND SCARY AND ONLY A MATTER OF TIME BEFORE A COMPLETE WIPE OUT OCCURS. SEEING THIS AS A ONGOING PROBLEM WITH THIS VEHICLE AND YET CALIFORNIA IS NOT IN THE VEHICLE RECALLS SEEMS RIDICULOUS. THESE HAPPEN ON CITY STREETS AND HIGHWAYS DAILY WHILE DRIVING SAID VEHICLE.
