2004 ACURA TL Complaints

The contact owns a 2004 Acura TL. The contact stated that while driving at 10 - 15 mph, a burning odor was detected and smoke was coming from under the hood of the vehicle. The contact inspected under the hood and noticed there was fluid leaking onto the catalytic converter that was causing the smoke. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The contact related the failure to NHTSA Campaign Number: 08V091000 (Steering) however, the VIN was not included in the recall. The failure mileage was approximately 170,000.

My "D" indicator light is blinking no matter changing the transmission fluid, cleaning the solenoids, etc. the car is not overheating, there are no apparent electrical problems and I do not even have any check engine lights or other codes. The light comes on blinking when I drive for a little while then goes off when I turn the car off and is fine. Then when I start it up it doesn't blink anymore. But then when I drive again for a while it blinks again. I've had transmission shuddering, jerky shifting, delayed shifting, etc.

Transmission is going out an a lot of people say after 200,000 miles Acura TL the 2004 transmissions start to go out which mines is doing now what can I do this is a know problem with 2004-2006 Acura TL

TORQUE CONVERTER HAS DIFFERENCE OF 200RPM OR GREATER THAN CAUSING TRANS TO OVER HEAT AND FAIL POWER STEERING LINE ALLOWING AIR INTO SYSTEM. SYSTEM LOCKED UP WHILE DRIVING AIR BAG SENSOR WON'T SENT CODE

MY POWER STEERING HAS GONE OUT I THINK HOSE BUSTED HARD TO STEER AND TRANSMISSION IS SLIPPING REVERSE IS GOING OUT

AFTER HAVING MY CAR IN THE SHOP FOR 2 WEEKS TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHY THE POWER STEERING WON'T STOP FREAKING EXPLODING WHEN THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH ANY OF THE PARTS EXCEPT THE HOSES GOING BAD. I ONCE AGAIN WAS LEFT IN THE MIDDLE OF A BUSY STREET WITH NO POWER STEERING TRYING TO MUSCLE MY WAY BACK TO THE SHOP. THIS IS RIDICULOUSSSSSSS. WHY ARE THEY NOT TELLING US THEIR CARS HAVE ISSUES!!!!!

WE PURCHASED THIS CAR NEW IN 2004! THIS CAR HAS NEVER HAD A AIRBAG RECALL. I'M VERY CONCERNED THIS YEAR, MAKE AND MODEL WAS OVERLOOKED CONCERNING THE AIRBAG RECALL. EVERY SINGLE MODEL AND YEAR AROUND THIS 2004 ACURA TL WAS RECALLED FOR THE AIRBAG REPLACEMENT. WE CONSTANTLY CHECK FOR UPDATES TO ASSURE WE DO NOT MISS A NOTICE. IS THERE ANYTHING THAT CAN BE DONE TO ASSURE OUR 2004 TL AIRBAG IS SAFE?

NEAR HEAD-ON COLLISION ON UNIVERSITY BOULEVARD IN HIGHLANDS RANCH, COLORADO INVOLVING THIS VEHICLE ON OCTOBER 13, 2020. OUR CLIENT WAS A FRONT SEAT PASSENGER AND HER CURTAIN SIDE AIRBAG FAILED TO DEPLOY. SHE SUSTAINED VERY SERIOUS, LIFE-THREATENING INJURIES AND REMAINS HOSPITALIZED.*DT*JB*DT*DT*DT*JB*DT*JB*DT*JB*JB*DT*JB*DT

I HAVE NOT BEEN CONTACTED ABOUT THE AIRBAG RECALL, THE POTENTIAL PROBLEM WITH THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL AND THE DRIVER SIDE LOWER BALL JOINT RECALL. SEVERAL YEARS AGO I EXITED A HIGHWAY, CAME TO A STOP SIGN AND WHEN I MADE A RIGHT TURN THE DRIVERS SIDE BALL JOINT BROKE. I HAD THE REPAIR DONE AND LUCKILY I DIDN'T HURT AO OR MYSELF. THANK YOU STAY SAFE. I THINK IT WAS IN 2015.

AS WITH OTHER POSTS, CRACKS IN THE DASHBOARD AROUND THE PERIMETER OF THE PASSENGER AIRBAG ARE PRONOUNCED AND GETTING WORSE OVER TIME. VERY CONCERNED FOR THE SAFETY OF PASSENGERS IN AN OTHERWISE RELIABLE VEHICLE WHICH HAS MANY MORE YEARS (AND MILES) OF USEFUL SERVICE.
