  • Acura quality? Not in this car. - 2001 Acura TL
    By -

    Its not a secret that Acura installed defective transmissions that blow anywhere from 50K to 100K miles. But weve had acid (yes, acid) leak from the electronic rear view mirror onto the shifter, melting the plastic overnight. Apart these unacceptable problems, you have a car that is underwhelming to drive. The engine has nice power, but its mated to a jerky, malfunctioning transmission (manual mode doesnt cooperated either), and insensitive accelerator feel. Body roll was mentioned in the review, but this car has an absolutely laughable turning radius. If you want to drive to the other gas pump youll end up back out in the street.

  • Very Dissappointed!!!!! - 2001 Acura TL
    By -

    Have had nothing but problems with the car since the first week of ownership. Dealership and Acura Direct providing no remedy. The car has a severe engine hesitation since I purchased it. Sometimes the hesitation is very subtle other times very noticeable. Have been back numerous times without positive results.
