2006 Acura TL Complaints

I WAS DRIVING ON A CITY STREET WHEN I WAS COMING TO GET READY TO STOP I STARTED TO BREAK, AT THAT TIME MY BRAKE SYSTEM FELT LIKE I WAS SLIPPING ON BLACK ICE YOU COULD SAY . BUT THE ROAD WAS DRY ! MY VEHICLE WOULDN'T STOP NORMAL I SOMEHOW BY THE GRACE OF GOD GOT IT PULLED TO THE SIDE OF THE STREET ! MY ABS AND VSA AND THE TRIANGLE WITH ( ! ) WITCH IS ORANGE ALSO ALL CAME ON . I SHUT MY CAR OFF ! AND HAD IT TOWED HOME .. I HAVE HAD PEOPLE LOOK AND SHOW ME BEHIND MY TWO FRONT TIRES THAT THE SPEED SENSORS ARE ON BOTH SIDES DETERRATED AND THE BOLTS ARE MISSING THAT CONNECT EVERYTHING IN PLACE . I HAVE LOOKED UP AND SEEN RECALLS ON THIS SAME SITUATION I AM NOW GOING THREW !

BAD TRANSMISSION! CAR DIDN'T MOVE. *TR

FOR SEVERAL YEARS, MY CAR'S BATTERY WOULD PREMATURELY DRAIN TO THE POINT OF MY HAVING TO PURCHASE SEVERAL BATTERIES IN A MUCH SHORTER PERIOD THAN USUAL. I HAD THE ALTERNATOR REPLACED UNDER THE MISTAKEN IMPRESSION THAT IT WAS THE PROBLEM. BUT ONLY AFTER RESEARCHING THE ISSUE ONLINE WAS I ABLE TO DETERMINE THE TRUE ISSUE. APPARENTLY, A MODULE USED TO CONTROL THE NAVIGATIONAL SYSTEM IS DEFECTIVE, AND THE COMPANY HAD KNOWN FOR YEARS AND STILL REFUSED TO NOTIFY OWNERS AND FIX THE ISSUE. I AM AN AGORAPHOBIC PERSON WHO SUFFERS FROM BIPOLAR DISORDER AND OTHER ANXIETY CONDITIONS, SO SIMPLY STICKING A CAR CAN BE TRAUMATIC IN CERTAIN SITUATION. ONE SUCH SITUATION IS EXPECTING BOTH ONE'S NAVIGATION SYSTEM AND BATTERY PERFORM ADEQUATELY AND SAFELY ALL THE TIME; MY REASON FOR PURCHASING THE CAR WAS BECAUSE IT HAD THE PREMIUM NAVIGATION OPTION, WHICH, AT THE TIME, HELPED ALLEVIATE MY ANXIETY BY PROVIDING VERBAL DIRECTIONS IN REAL TIME TO MY LOCATION, WHICH REDUCES THE ANXIETY FROM THE AGORAPHOBIA...

WELL MY AIR BAG SENSOR, MY PSA LIGHT AND MY TPSA LIGHT IS ON. ALL DEALING WITH FAULTY SENSORS AND ELECTRICAL ISSUES. AND MY AIR BAG SENSOR WILL COME ON ONCE IN AWHILE, SAYING IT'S OFF. AND FROM THE ACURA TL COMMUNITY 2003 TO 2006 HAVE HORRIBLE TRANSMISSIONS. EVERYBODY I KNOW AND TALK TO THAT HAVE A TL THAT FALLS INTO THOSE YEARS, HAVE HAD THEIR TRANSMISSIONS EITHER REBUILT OR REPLACED. AND NOBODY EVER TALKS ABOUT IT. I WANT TO MAKE IT KNOWN THAT THESE VEHICLES HAVE ONE OF THE WORST TRANSMISSIONS OTHER THAN THE HONDA ODDESSY BUT HONDA HAS A RECALL ON THERE TRANSMISSIONS. SO HOPEFULLY ONE DAY ACURA CAN DO THE SAME.

ACURA WILL NOT HELP ME WITH DASHBOARD. THEY WANT TO CHARGE ME $3000 FOR A NEW DASH. THIS CAR HAS NEVER BEEN OUTSIDE , ALWAYS GARAGE KEPT BY ME AND ONE OTHER OWNER! CRACKING ALL OVER DASH IS GOIN TO CAUSE THE AIR BAG TO HURT SOMEONE IF DEPLOYED! NO DASH CRACKS ALL OVER THATS KEPT INSIDE. THIS IS HAPPENING TO EVERY ACURA TL 04-08 MODEL! REPETITIVELY ! THE CAR HAS NEVER BEEN IN ANY COASTAL AREA OR SALT OR SAND OR HEAT AT ALL! IV OWNED MANY CARS HIGHER IN MILLAGE THAT WERE KEPT OUTSIDE ONLY AND NEVER HAD CRACKING DASH PROBLEM! IV SEEN OLDER CARS THAT WERE EXTREMELY OLD IN AGE AND KEPT IN HEAT THAT HAD MINOR CRACKS BUT NOTHING LIKE THIS ESPECIALLY ON NEWER VEHICLES KEPT NO WHERE BUT INSIDE THE WHOLE TIME SINCE CAR CAME OFF PRODUCTION LINE! ACURA ACKNOWLDGED THE PROBLEM BUT NO HELP WAS OFFERED THEY SAID I WOULD HAVE TO PAY AROUND #3000 TO HAVE A NEW DASH INSTALLED. THIS IS CLEARLY POORLY MADE MATERIAL BY ACURA PROBABLY FAKE CARBON FIBER OR CHEAP PLASTIC. BUT THEY ADVERTISE THEIR VEHICLES AS...
