My car shuts off at idle without warning. No lights or codes. I’ve seen a fuel pump issue is the cause on other models like mine.

There was a recall issued on Nov 2023. The manufacturer has informed me about this in Jan 2024. After that there is no update. In other words, its been 6 months and mfg still haven't fixed this. Based on what I read on the description of recall, this issue can be serious (Stall of engine) which is not safe and also can get expensive if it happens. So, I am raising this complaint hoping you will look in to this and make manufacturer act on this sooner.

UNKNOWN- I was on the Interstate coming from work when I heard a loud BOOM sound. Then I heard wind. I got to where I could pull over and saw nothing. I looked at my sunroof and it was completely shattered. Just out the blue. Thankfully my sunroof was closed and my shade was pulled or I would have been seriously injured or worse.

Every time I took my car in for State emissions test computer at facility said car could came back saying “not ready”. Took it 5 times and it always said same result. Took it to dealer and they said they’ve seen this before but don’t know what caused it. They said the only was to resolve it was for Acura mechanic to take car to testing facility while his laptop was hooked up to cat computer, to “trick” testing facility into allowing cat to pass EPA test. Car was still under warranty at this time and had 60,000 miles on it. Car passed tested dealer charged me $400 and said it was not covered under warranty because they could not find a code for the problem. Acura mechanic said he has seen this on other Acura TLXs…

I'M CONSISTENTLY GETTING LANE DEPARTURE WARNINGS ON MY CAR. THIS ERROR CAN HAPPEN RANDOMLY...IT MAY BE AFTER START OR I MAY BE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. THE DEALER'S RESOLUTION IS TO SIMPLY STOP AND START THE ENGINE...WHICH IN MOST CASES FIXES THE ISSUE. THE ONLY PROBLEM IS THAT THIS IS A SAFETY SYSTEM AND THIS SHOULD NOT BE HAPPENING.
