For some time now, before I was aware of this service, my car warning lights indicate that there is an issue with my forward collision, my lane departure, and the lane keeping assistance. It further indiscretion to clean my front windshield. I do so, but the warning still remains. Then some time will pass and the warning goes off. This warning happens sporadically, even giving impression of some hesitation while accelerating, and other times with drag when breaking. I made mention ofv this concern once to my dealership, but they said because it was now out of warranty, the check for the problem world cost $200. But now after reading of similar issues with other cars on this site, I will pursue a check on it.

Visa transmission light engine light the car jerks when driving. Puts itself in neutral
As I was driving on major road the car shift from drive to neutral with all these problems flashing at me with not any warning signs. I was scared and I am scared to drive my car.
Car brake warning lights will flash when there is nothing in front of me, car keeps braking and losing power while driving on freeway for no reason.
The following warning messages all poped-up at the same time while driving the vehicle on a city street: brake system problem; brake hold system problem; anti-lock brake system problem; vihicle stability assist problem; hill start assist problem; lane keeping assist problem; power steering system problem; hill start assist problem; forward collission warning problem; lane departure assist problem; the message keep rotating while driving the vehicle and the associated dashboard light remains on. I suspect this might be related to acura service bulletin 15-050, but I have not confirmed this yet.
This vehicle is so unsafe . I had lots of different situations happen and when I take it to the dealership they check it and say it's fine ! The vehicle stalls and hesitates and I get sensors going off constantly including the brake sensor when there is nothing in front of me for it to go off . I've had the vehicle go in park by itself while on a light. The vehicle doesn't start and always needs a jump I got the battery checked multiple times and the dealership told me my battery is good and I have to charge it . I believe there is an electrical issue with this vehicle . My vehicle only has 30,000 miles I have all my maintenance done at the dealership on time I purchased this vehicle thinking it's reliable being I'm a mother of two kids!
Car won't crank and won't start. Ended up stranded numerous times within the last 2 months while out shopping. Each time stranded, the car would start after being jumped by another vehicle each time. After the first account of being stranded and jumped by another vehicle, I immediately drove to the dealership and was told by the dealership that my car battery was testing "very good" and they said my battery would recharge itself and that the drainage could be due to the hot texas weather. Not so much the case as I ended up stranded two days after that, once again. Then, a week or so later, on another account of being stranded and jumped started by another vehicle, I drove to autozone to have them test my battery to find that it then too tested "very good." autozone suggested that I purchase a portable car charger, so I did. Came to find out that upon being stranded the fourth time, the portable charger was unable to get me jumped/started. So, I had to call roadside assistance. Roadside assistance tried using "their" portable car charger but failed to work. So the rep pulled out his jumper cables and was able to jump my car after about 5 minutes. At that point, I went back to autozone and decided to purchase a new car battery even though my existing battery tested "very good" once again. Immediately following the battery replacement, my SRS airbag light became illuminated and has been on since then. It's been 3 weeks since I've had the new batter installed and I'm now stranded again. I've seen way tooo many posts with other folks experiencing this same issue. Please investigate!!!!!
Car stalled while stopping at traffic light twice in two weeks. Both times car shut off completely. I had to put it in park and then restart the car. This is a safety concern.
Tl* the contact owns a 2015 acura tlx. The contact stated that while driving at 30 MPH, the transmission light, the vehicle stability assist (vsa) and the precision all wheel steer system warning messages illuminated. The vehicle started to lose motive power with the accelerator pedal depressed. The vehicle was not diagnosed nor repaired. Neither the dealer nor the manufacturer were notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 66,571.
The car automatically switches to neutral and shuts off while driving. I bought the car brand new from john eagle acura and have had this problem the entire time that I have owned the vehicle. The dealership replaced the transmission and starter on the car less than 3 months after pruchase. The car continues to switch gears on its own and shuts off! The dealership says that nothing is wrong with the car. Please beaware this car is not safe to drive!!!
The vsa problem light & forward collision warning problem light came up while driving and the vehicle stopped & stalls all in a sudden. Not sure if this is a safety issue, but almost got into a car accident. Please help! Thank you
2015 acura tlx 2.4 model has jerking between 1 and 3rd gear. While driving on a highway if feels as if the wheel alignment is off had a wheel alignment done didn't fix problem. Steering wheel needs to be held at an angle to drive straight. When trying to start the car I'll hear a clicking sound instead of it starting. Needs a jump to start happened 3 times already. Battery was tested results that I have good batter life.
The onboard system crashed while I was driving. All the warnings on the dash went off. The car automatically went into park. When I placed the car into drive mode the parking brake would not disengage. I turned off and on my car the issues persisted. After I turned off and on my car a third time the car allowed me to drive it.
While driving at 45mph the car lost power I.e., steering, brakes, stability control and transmission and was unable to unlock parking brake
My name is [xxx] , in 2014 I walked into marin acura (located in marin, california) and leased a 2015 acura tlx. This was especially an exciting model due to it redesign. Within the first year of my lease I received a recall letter in the mail stating that their was a defect in regards to the transmission. I brought the vehicle to the dealer and they "fixed" it and sent me on my way. One year later, again, I received a letter in the mail from the automobile devision located at your corporate headquarters at 1919 torrance blvd, ca (the federal safety agency recall # 16v‑640). The letter clearly states ?if this malfunction were to occur, it could result in an unexpected loss of motor power, which could reduce vehicle control and increases the risk of a crash?. It also states that the ?fix? Will become available december 2016, todays date is november 7th, 2016. I have been driving this vehicle for 2 out of my 3 year lease and the transmission has been recalled twice consistently every year. I have put my two children and wife into this vehicle now knowing that the car could have possibly put my family and myself in physical danger and even death. Not because driving is dangerous but because there have been manufacturing defects with the transmission of this acura model and year. I cannot describe what it feels like to have that on the mind of a parent. I see this being handled in one way. Acura takes away the car and refunds me my total vehicle lease investment along with my down payment. Please take this matter into serious consideration as I am fully prepared to legally escalate this matter beyond the consumer-company level. I can't imagine how many acura 2015 tlxs there are nation wide. This experience has been a disaster financially, emotionally and according to acura potentially physically.

2 different times while driving i75( 30-45mph heavy traffic) and then i16 (55 -60 MPH rush hour traffic) the car stalls all lights flash off then back on and dashboard lights up first saying breaks the transmission, stability control. First time tech said fluke low voltage, second said car down shifts to 4th gear and gets stuck.
The original failure was scary. We had just left texas hwy 130 (80 MPH toll way), when we sustained the original failure. As it failed, everybody in the car thought I had slammed on the brakes by the way the car buckled (like a bucking horse), it had done a violent sudden stop and release; the car went to idle and coasted for a bit without response from the engine; I studied the panel because everything was lit up; once I decided the engine was still idling, I pressed the accelerator slowly until I decided I had some control; checked the failure messages; then tried to drive the car. The car could be driven, I drove it slowly with the hazard lights on, the car buckled every so often. Since we were close to home we went there. Had this happened at 80 MPH, I don't know what would have happened.
After a minor fender bender, the vehicle became completely disabled and blocked four (4) lanes of traffic for almost four (4) hours. The driver-side knee airbag deployed and several sensors/relays became inoperable and the car reported a braking system failure that rendered the car immobile. The tires locked up and the vehicle subsequently had to be dragged onto a flatbed tow truck. Additionally, the acuralink service did not contact me until 90+ minutes later and the assist/sos button fell off of the car before I could engage it. While making a left turn, the front end of my car was sideswiped. My vehicle immediately became immobilized with the brakes fully engaged on all four (4) tires. The accident happened on a four (4) lane city street. My car came to rest in a parallel position blocking all four (4) lanes.
