“After replacing my battery on my 2015 TLX I started receiving warning codes saying emission system problem and electric parking brake problem. I went to 3 different Acura dealerships for a diagnosis and was given a different diagnosis from each dealership. I first seen the codes as I was entering the expressway at approximately 35 MPH 1 week after getting a new battery.”
NHTSA complaint #11343762, filed 2020-08, 90,000 miles“My sunroof exploded while driving 55mph, it sounded like a gunshot and glass was all over the shade, thankfully the shade was closed so the glass didn't get on us or in the car, I was driving north on a street entering the city”
NHTSA complaint #11397238, filed 2021-02, 7 miles“The car was leased in november, 2015. After three weeks the exhaust system started filling up with fluid. Loud noises emanate from the muffler and if you floor the accelerator, fluid comes spewing out of the left exhaust pipe in buckets. The car was returned to the service department repeatedly and they could not repair the problem. They blamed my driving habits as the cause of the problem since I only use the car for local driving. …”
NHTSA complaint #10954376, filed 2017-02, 160 miles“Almost immediately after bought I noticed my 2015 Acura TLX 3.5l v6 jerked significantly between gears 1-3. I have a one-hour commute each way in stop-and-go freeway traffic, and the problem is hugely annoying. Frequently it jerks so hard that my head hits the headrest repeatedly. I feel like someone rear ending slowly, at the end of my commute, I'm wiped out from all the jerking back-and-forth. The dealer says Acura is calling this a characteristic of the vehicle for which there is no fix. …”
NHTSA complaint #11163370, filed 2018-12, 15,000 miles“On both days sept 22 and sept 23, 2015, as I was driving, I was sitting in traffic at a stop light waiting for it to turn green. Just as the light turned green and everyone started to move forward, my car shut down. An ediston bulb popped up on the dash, yellow color, and the words shift to park but it disappeared within 2 secs. I immediately shifted to park and restarted the car. The car restarted and I was able to move forward. I am taking the car back into the dealer today. …”
