Since I purchased my vehicle my seat beats get stuck unable to clip belt. My car came with speakers not working dealer tried to tell me I was crazy, until the speaker system was check Yess sure enough no speaker sound at all. In my main base front center Speaker ( VeryBig Deal) all of this last Friday my TLX aspec 3.5v6 has been Making noise and running at a very low reduced speed for no apparent reason while flashing a Engine sign. Flash blank with warning engine. This Event has put me at risk of safety and protection of customer purchase violations as I developed change in my daily life being blind sided about my Acura TLX Car safety and manufacturing issues. I complaint about this after purchase of vechile and They fixed the repair at no charge. But who wants they car ripped apart never in same fresh condition as purchase. I now receive bends in dash board related to speaking replacements documented in Acura Profile. Yes it hasn’t been my car has been diagnostic and going for rare down of engine components at the Acura dealer. This is outrageous and so scary knowing I have too been dealt a bad TLX.

    Idle stop system works properly 99.9% of the time. However, three times in the last 12 months, I was stopped at a light and when I took my foot off the brake the car did not start. I tried to re-start, but it did not start immediately, took about 10 to 20 seconds to start. In each of the cases, I was able to restart just not right away. These three instances were about four months or so apart. The system was checked by Acura service twice, and no issues found.

    I was pulling on to interstate 5 when attempting lane change I accelerated with no success. The gas pedal was pressed harder and still no acceleration and that went on for at least 3 to 4 seconds. This happens to me every day. I have tried different brands of fuel but always premium and that has made no changes. The vehicle had a fuel system recall which made little if any improvement when it was performed over a year ago.

    THE VEHICLE HESITATES TO ACCELERATE WHILE IN MOTION AND FROM A STOPPED POSITION. THE HESITATION OCCURS DURING GRADUAL AND IMMEDIATE ACCELERATION. YOU CAN HEAR THE HESITATION IN THE ENGINE. CAR HAS LESS THAN 10K MILES AT THE TIME OF THIS SUBMISSION.

    WHEN I BACK OUT OF SOMEWHERE AND SELECT `DRIVE' ON THE TRANSMISSION THERE IS A DELAY OF 2 SECONDS TO 5 SECONDS BEFORE IT ENGAGES IN 'DRIVE' .THAT IS A LONG TIME WHEN A PERSON IS PULLING OUT ON AN ARTERIAL. THE ACCELERATION IWHEN IN 'DRIVE' IS NOT CONSISTENT WITH A SIMILAR HESITATION. FROM THE TIME THE ACCELERATOR HAS BEEN PRESSED IT COULD BE 2 TO 5 SECONDS BEFORE IT BEGINS TO MOVE. IT HAS BEEN TERRIFYING WHEN MERGING ON TO THE FREEWAY OR SIMPLY JUST PULLING OUT ON ANY ROADWAY.THE TRANSMISSION SEEMS SLUGGISH WHEN GOING FROM DRIVE TO REVERSE ALSO BUT THAT IS NOT GOING TO CAUSE AN ACCIDENT LIKE NOT BEING ABLE GO FORWARD IS. THIS HAD A RECALL ON FUEL PUMP PROGRAMMING AND THAT MADE LITTLE OR NO IMPROVEMENT. I HAVE ACURA INVOICES AND FILM THAT I HAVE TAKEN ON ANOTHER DEVICE THAT CAN BE PROVIDED.

    I WAS ENTERING A LEFT-HAND TURN LANE, WITH A RED LIGHT. THE THIRD-PARTY INVESTIGATION SHOWED I ENTERED THE LANE AT 35MP. I STARTED GENTLE BREAKING AND WHEN THERE WAS NO RESPONSE, I PUSHED THE BRAKE HARD AND TO THE FLOOR. I DID NOT FEEL THE CAR DECELERATE BUT THE INVESTIGATION SHOWS THAT BRAKED FOR 7 SECONDS PLUS AND HIT THE LAST CAR IN LINE AT ABOUT 20MPH. THE INVESTIGATOR WAS UNABLE TO RECREATE THE CIRCUMSTANCES.

    FRONT SENSOR WARNING REPEATEDLY GOES OFF WHEN STOPPED WHENEVER IT RAINS. IT WILL CONTINUE TO ALERT WHEN GOING FROM A FULL STOP TO MOVING FOR SEVERAL SECONDS AND STOP. IT WILL RESTART THE ALERT ONCE THE CAR COMES TO A FULL STOP AGAIN. THIS REPEATED ERRONEOUS SENSOR ALERT SERVES AS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE AS IT SERVES AS A CONSTANT AND DANGEROUS DISTRACTION TO THE DRIVER. EACH TIME THE ALERT GOES OFF IT DRIVES YOUR EYES OFF THE ROAD AND ONTO THE ALERT ON THE DASHBOARD CREATING THE POTENTIAL FOR INVOLVEMENT IN ACCIDENTS. THIS ISSUE WAS NOTICED ON DELIVERY OF THE NEW LEASED VEHICLE. AT THAT TIME IT WAS THE LEFT FRONT SENSOR WHICH HAD THE SAME ISSUE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE DEALER 3 SEPARATE TIMES WHERE THE LEFT FRONT SENSOR WAS READJUSTED THEN ON THE NEXT VISIT REPLACED. PROBLEM CONTINUED, ON THE THIRD VISIT THE ENTIRE FRONT END OF THE CAR WAS REMOVED AND DONE WHICH RESOLVED THE LEFT FRONT SENSOR BUT RESULTED IN THE CONTINUOUS FRONT CENTER SENSOR ALERTING. VALLEY STREAM ACURA HAS FAILED TO ADDRESS THIS AS A SAFETY ISSUE AND HAS OFFERED NO RESOLUTION TO THE PROBLEM.
