| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: I was coming off a freeway off ramp, going about 35 mph, heading slightly uphill, when my two month old acura 3.5 rl's engine died. i was in motion, and without warning, noise or shaking the engine died. i quickly put the car into park and started up again and was able to move quickly and prevented being hit from behind. the next day, the engine died again as i was traveling 10 mph in a parking lot. two days later, the engine zipped out for the third time in four days, as i was taking my daughter to school. the car is currently at the dealer who claims that two other cars like mine have come in with the same problem but they cannot fix it because they cannot identify it. i feel that this is a serious, life threatening defect and i absolutely will not drive that car or another one like it. have you had any complaints or accidents involving these cars? will i be able to obtain reports? thank you. linda louie. *ak |
