NHTSA Complaint #11406102 — 2015 ACURA TLX

AFTER A TRAFFIC LIGHT STOP, I ACCELERATED AND THE CAR LOST ACCELERATION, THEN THE CHECK ENGINE TURNED ON. I PULLED OVER AND HAD NO RESPONSE FROM THE ACCELERATOR. CHECK ENGINE WAS FLASHING. I TURNED OFF THE CAR THEN TURNED IT BACK ON, AND PROBLEM WAS GONE ACCELERATION CAME BACK. I MERGE INTO MY LANE AGAIN AND NOT EVEN 100 FT WHEN MY DASH LIGHTS CAME ON, LIKE A CHRISTMAS TREE. EVERY LIGHT IN MY DASH WAS LIT. THE FOLLOWING ARE SOME OF THE LIGHTS THAT WERE ON. POWER STEERING PARK CHECK ENGINE ADAPTABLE CRUISE CONTROL PROBLEM COLLISION SIGN SEATBELT TRACTION CONTROL OIL LIGHT ABS COLLISION LIGHT BRAKE SYSTEM PROBLEM ACC LKAS VEHICLE STABILITY ASSIST THE ISSUE APPEARED TO BE ELECTRICAL SINCE THE MECHANICAL PARTS OF THE CAR LOOKED OK. I DROVE THE CAR HOME AT 55 MPH SINCE THATS AS FAST AS IT WILL LET ME DRIVE IT. I STOPPED AT A AUTOZONE TO SCAN THE OBD COMPUTER AND JUST A MISFIRE ON CYLINDER 2 CODE CAME UP WHICH IS STRANGE THAT A MISFIRE WOULD CAUSE THIS PROBLEM. NO OTHER CODES CAME OUT. NOTE: CAR HAD NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON BEFORE THIS IN 179,000 MILES WE HAVE OWNED IT. WENT HOME DISCONNECTED THE BATTERY THEN HOOK IT BACK ON. PROBLEM WENT AWAY. IT HASNOT HAPPENED IN 12 HRS. THE ISSUE IS I DONT TRUST THE CAR ANYMORE. IF THIS WOULD HAVE HAPPENED IN THE FREEWAY 10 AT 80 MPH WITH TRAFFIC, I WOULD HAVE CAUSE A DEADLY CRASH. THEN I LOOKED ON YOU TUBE AND THERE IS PRACTICALLY DOZENS OF ACURA OWNERS WITH IDENTICAL ISSUES, SOME OF THEM AVOIDED CRASHES BECAUSE OF LOSS OF POWER. DEALERS CANT FIND SOLUTIONS, IN THE COMMENTS SECTION ALL I READ IS PEOPLE ASKING IF SOMEONE FOUND A SOLUTION. SEEMS LIKE HONDA SHOULD BE DOING SOMETHING ABOUT IT , TO KEEP THEIR COSTUMERS SAFE. HOPE THIS LETTER GETS TO THEM AND NHTSA DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT, BEFORE IT TAKES SOMEONE'S LIFE.
