Build Years/Makes/Models:	2001 ACURA MDX
Occurances:
Reference Number:	10153377
Summary:	I PURCHASED A '01 ACURA MDX AS A PRE-OWNED VEHICLE ON OCTOBER 23, 2003. THE CAR RAN GREAT EXCEPT FOR THE OCCASIONAL RECALL. THE FIRST RECALL WAS DONE AT 35,000 MILES FOR THE FRONT SPRINGS AND THEN AT 39,000 MILES FOR THE TRANSMISSION OVERHEATING ISSUE. ON MARCH 17,2006 I WAS TRAVELING DOWN THE HIGHWAY WHEN I COMPLETELY LOST ALL POWER TO MY VEHICLE AND HAVE TO SWERVE OFF THE ROAD TO AVOID GETTING HIT. I WAS QUITE SCARED. AFTER PULLING OFF TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD I GOT OUT OF MY VEHICLE TO SEE IF THERE WAS ANYTHING WRONG EXTERNALLY AND THERE WASN'T, BUT I NOTICED THAT THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT HAD COME ON. I IMMEDIATELY BROUGHT IT INTO MY DEALER AND HAD THEN CHECK THE CAR OVER. THEY STATED THAT THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT INDICATED A TOTAL TRANSMISSION FAILURE. THEY TOLD ME THAT THIS TYPE OF THING WAS COMMON IN THESE CARS AND THAT THE RECALL WAS SUPPOSED TO FIX THE ISSUE. APPARENTLY IT HASN'T. AT 77,000 MILES MY TRANSMISSION FAILED AND ACURA WANTS NOTHING TO DO WITH IT. THEIR HEADQUARTERS HAVE STATED THAT THE TWO PROBLEMS, THE RECALL AND MY TRANSMISSION ISSUE ARE UNRELATED. AFTER DOING A CONSIDER AMOUNT OF RESEARCH ON THE INTERNET I'VE NOTICED THESE CARS ARE KNOWN FOR TRANSMISSION ISSUES AND THAT A TOTAL TRANSMISSION FAILURE CAN RESULT BECAUSE THE RECALL WAS NOT DONE PROPERLY OR BECAUSE THE RECALL DIDN'T CATCH THE PROBLEM IN EARLY ENOUGH. MY PROBLEM IS THAT THE CAR WAS DRIVEN 40,000 MILES BEFORE THE RECALL WAS DONE AND DURING THAT TIME SOME DAMAGE HAD TO HAVE BEEN DONE TO THE TRANSMISSION TO WARRANT THIS TRANSMISSION. MY QUESTION TO YOU IS, WHERE DO I GO FROM HERE?? ACURA WANTS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE CAR BECAUSE THEY KNOW IT IS A MAJOR SAFETY DEFECT IN THERE VEHICLES. IN THE LEAST THEY COULD HAVE PROVIDED ME WITH A REBUILT TRANSMISSION, BUT THEY DENIED EVEN THAT REQUEST. THEY SHOULD BE STOPPED!!*JB
