“Powertrain: in 19 months of ownership, my 2015 Acura TLX's transmission has failed twice. The first time it failed (10 months), it would not enter into reverse, drive or neutral upon starting. It took special towing too. The second time it failed (19 months, 22k miles), I was driving in rural texas at 70 MPH and the transmission switched into neutral, warning lights exploded and I had to safely work my way to an exit ramp and onto the frontage road. I then had to wait for 2.5 hours for a tow truck which then resulted in a 2 hour ride in a tow truck to bring it to the dealer. …”
