Acura TSX 2009 — Problemas reportados

The contact owns a 2009 Acura TSX. The contact stated while driving at an undisclosed speed, the check engine warning light illuminated, after which the vehicle entered LIMP Mode and the throttle failed to respond. The contact was able to pull to the shoulder of the roadway to restart the vehicle. After restarting the vehicle, the vehicle returned to normal functionality, but the failure became a persistent failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 143,000.

The check engine light came on and the “check transmission” warning sign came on all of a sudden one day. I started feeling hard ups/downs in gears from 1 to 2 and 2 to 3 (and also in reverse order of both these sequences). Its running rough and don’t feel safe driving the car.

Air Bag light shows on dash but when driving the air bad light flashes off and on. It happens often

I was driving car to work and when I was making a turn my car steering wheel stop working it was so hard to maneuver I almost crashed I took it to the shop and they asked to call the acura dealer before making repairs because this car had reports on the steering wheel malfunction I called and they said that this car wasn't cover by the warranty but this could off got me kill now the acura dealer is asking me for 3000 dollars to fix it when is a car factory default

THE DRIVERS SEAT BELT STOPPED CATCHING BECAUSE OF THE PLASTIC CAP COVERING THE MECHANISM CAME LOOSE. THE CAP HOLDS WITH LITTLE PLASTIC PEGS WHICH AREN'T VERY STRONG AND KEEP POPPING OUT. I FIXED IT BY REPLACING ONE WITH A SCREW BUT IT SHOULD BE MANUFACTURED MORE SECURELY TO BEGIN WITH. THE DRIVERS SEAT BELT IS A MAJOR PART OF VEHICLE SAFETY AND SHOULD BE MADE MORE STURDY THAN IT IS. THIS HAPPENED WITH REGULAR USE OF THE SEAT BELT AND NOT DURING ANY ACCIDENT.

VEHICLE HAS THROWN AN ENGINE CODE DUE TO EXCESS OIL CONSUMPTION DUE TO STICKY PISTON RINGS, ADVANCEMENT IN TIMING AND VVT ADVANCEMENTS. DUE TO THIS ENGINE CODE BEING THROWN, THE CAR DEACTIVATES VSA AND ALSO THROWS AN EMISSION CONTROL LIGHT. THIS CAUSES THE CAR TO ENTER A STATE WHERE IT ADVANCES THE RPM'S AT IDLE BY A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT AND BURNS MORE FUEL. WHEN LEAVING THE CAR IN DRIVE BUT AT A STOP, THE CAR WILL QUICKLY ACCELERATE NEARLY TO 30 MPH ON A FLAT SURFACE. IN ORDER TO STOP THE CAR, THE DRIVER MUST EXCESSIVELY ENGAGE THE BRAKES. ACURA TECHNICIANS HAVE INFORMED ME THAT THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE AND IS DUE TO THE PISTON SEALS BEING FAULTY, CAUSING EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION AND LOOSING THE TIMING CHAIN TO BECOME OUT OF SYNC. ENGINE WILL THEN ENTER A "LIMP" MODE WHERE CAR WILL IDLE HIGHER, BURN MORE FUEL.

I AM HAVING TO PUT 2-3 QUARTS OF OIL IN MY VEHICLE ONCE A MONTH. I HAD TAKEN MY VEHICLE INTO THE ACURA DEALERSHIP LAST YEAR AND THEY STARTED THAT THERE WAS A RECALL ON MY VEHICLE FOR THE EXACT ISSUE THAT I'M HAVING BUT MY VIN WASN'T INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. THE RECALL IS FOR DEPOSITS BUILDING UP IN THE ENGINE WHICH CAUSE OIL TO BE BURNED MORE DURING ACCELERATION AND THE SOLUTION WOULD BE TO REPLACE THE PISTONS ON THE ENGINE AND OTHER VARIOUS ENGINE PARTS. PLEASE REFERENCE RECALL INFORMATION TSB #B13-006 NHTSA# 10152441

MY OIL LIGHT KEEP COMING ON EVERY 30% AFTER NEW OIL CHANGE.

I BOUGHT THIS CAR A FEW MONTHS AGO. THE LAST OIL CHANGE WAS DONE AT THE DEALERSHIP I BOUGHT FROM. AND SINCE I HAVE OWNED IT I HAVE HAD TO PUT 6 QUARTS OF OIL IN MY ENGINE. MY CAR IS ONLY AT ABOUT 87,000 MILES AND IS CURRENTLY READY FOR THE NEXT OIL CHANGE. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP TO ASK WHAT I COULD DO ABOUT IT AND ALL THEY TOLD ME WAS TO TRY A FUEL TREATMENT WHICH IS IRRELEVANT. IM AT A LOSS, AND I DONT THINK I WILL EVER BUY AND ACURA EVER AGAIN.

STEERING LOCKS UP MID-TURN WHILE DRIVING. RESULTED IN A COLLISION.

WHENEVER THE WEATHER DROPS BELOW FREEZING, MY BRAKES STOP WORKING. THE CARE MAY WORK FINE FOR THE FIRST BLOCK, BUT FAIL TWO OR THREE BLOCKS INTO A DRIVE. WHEN I TRY TO STEP ON THE BRAKE, AND IT FEELS FROZEN -- STUCK ALMOST. THE ONLY WAY TO STOP THE VEHICLE IS BY USING THE EMERGENCY BRAKE. AFTER A FEW MINUTES, OF IDLING THE MANUAL BRAKE RETURNS TO NORMAL ACTIVITY. THIS IS EXTREMELY ALARMING -- ESPECIALLY ON CITY ROADS WITH NUMEROUS PEDESTRIANS, STUDENTS, AND OTHER VEHICLES IN CLOSE PROXIMITY. IT IS NOT A NORMAL ISSUE; I NEVER EXPERIENCED THIS WITH ANOTHER CAR, AND FROM INTERNET RESEARCH, IT SEEMS THAT A NUMBER OF OTHER DRIVERS EXPRESSED CONCERN TO DEALERS, THE MANUFACTURER, AND NHTSA WITH NO OUTCOME. WILL IT TAKE A CASUALTY OR HOPEFULLY NOT A FATALITY FOR AN INVESTIGATION/ ACTION?

EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION

FAST BURNING OF OIL.

MY DAUGHTER WAS DRIVING AROUND A CURVE AND SHE SAID THE WHEEL LOCKED AND SHE COULD NOT TURN STRIKING A MAIL BOX AT 20 MPH. THIS WAS WITNESSED BY MY NEIGHBOR WHO WAS MOWING HIS LAWN. HE SAID HE SAW HER TRYING TO TURN BUT THE CAR WAS NOT TURNING. IF SHE WAS GOING FASTER SHE WOULD HAVE BEEN KILLED.

I RECEIVED A TAKATA RECALL AND WENT TO ROSENTHAL ACURA TO GET IT REPLACED. THAT WAS COMPLETED BY ROSENTHAL. I THINK THAT WAS AROUND A YEAR AGO. ON 04/23/2018 I REAR-ENDED ANOTHER CAR. MY CAR WAS TOTALED. MY SPEED AT IMPACT PROBABLY WAS ABOUT 30-25 MPH. THE CAR I HIT WAS STATIONARY. MY AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. WHY NOT?

NO NOTIFICATIONS

"TAKATA RECALL" THE AIRBAG DASH LIGHTS CAME BACK ON IN THE VEHICLE AGAIN SHORTLY (APPROXIMATELY 1-2 WEEKS) AFTER THE ACURA DEALERSHIP PERFORMED THE RECALL REPAIR TO THE AIRBAGS. THE VEHICLE WAS IMMEDIATELY TAKEN BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR EVALUATION.
