2019 Acura TLX Transmission and drivetrain Problems

“My car stalled for the second time on june 12, 2019. First time was march 31, 2019. Since I already got the recall notice (NHTSA recall 19v-060) before the first time, I took it to the dealer and they said they fixed the issue by doing a software update. However, even after the software update, it stalled again on june 12th, 2019. It looks like either a new issue or their software update did not fix it. There is also a possibility of the updated software having new bugs. …”

“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.

This is not the first time its happened. It usually happens in a decelerating turn. but I have tried to get appointments with Huntsville and nashvile dealerships. …”

“In 2022, my 2019 Acura TLX A-Spec received a warranty engine replacement due to a spun bearing. At that time, recall 23V-751 (connecting rod bearing defect) did not yet exist. Recently, the replacement engine developed a pronounced knocking/ticking noise at idle and during light acceleration. Multiple independent mechanics and an Acura service department confirmed the noise is abnormal and consistent with connecting rod bearing wear as described in the recall. Acura advised that my VIN is not included in the recall because the original engine was replaced. …”
