Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I have a 2003 acura cl type s. acura has replaced the automatic transmission twice and the 3rd transmission currently in the car is having problems. although the manufacturer extended the warranty to 7 years and 100,000 miles, they sent service bulletins requesting service induced slippage between gears and reductin of horsepower to reduce strain on the transmission. this car is advertised as a high performance automobile and unknown to the customer to take care of a manufacturing defect they are adjusting the overall performance of the car. my car has been in for repair in excess of 15 times. as a paraplegic confined to a wheelchair this has dramatically impacted my quality of life. any assistance you could provide would be greatly appreciated. ron cheek
