GEAR/TRANSMISSION LOCK UP WHILE DRIVING. VEHICLE STALLED AND COULD NOT SWITCH GEAR BACK TO DRIVE. VEHICLE FAILED EMISSIONS TWICE BUT WAS PASSED 3RD TIME WITHOUT EXEMPTION OR WAIVER. THIS VEHICLE HAS BEEN DISCONTINUED DUE TO THE ON GOING UNFIXABLE ISSUES, WHY WASN'T IT BLACKLISTED OR LABEL A CATEGORY A CAR? THESE ACURA'S ARE DANGEROUS AND SHOULDN'T EVEN BE ALLOWED ON THE ROAD! NHTSA DOESN'T EVEN SPECIFY IF THE VEHICLE WAS FIXED AFTER THE RECALLS- OBVIOUSLY THEY WEREN'T BECAUSE THE CAR WAS POORLY MADE AND IS UNFIXABLE. WE NEED JUSTICE
