Total transmission failure while under incline load driving, leaving vehicle unable to maneuver in traffic to reasonably get to safety.

- Ogden, UT, USA

The transmission gear shifts not smoothly, D4/D5 light blinking, won't excel when gas is applied, had to cut the car off, wait 5min, to drive for two blocks before having to repeat this process to get it home 12 blocks away, only would excel 20mph (bought it on Wednesday, on Tuesday of the next week, the problem began). The car has 127,000 miles and history of oil change/transmission services. After seeking answers, per repair pal, there's an issue with transmissions with all years of this model, some people have had to get the transmission repaired/replaced several times. Please recall before someone gets hurt or worse dies.

The car jumps into neutral at anytime while driving the vehicle. If you come to a stop or even trying to accelerate while attempting to merge into traffic it will just stop and the RPM will rev up. You will have to come to a complete stop and then place in neutral and then back in drive and it may go or may not go... really just depends on how the car wants to act that day. It happens all the time, city street, parking lot, highway, when coming to a complete stop, low speeds during school zone or residential area.

My car's transmission system was damaged. Seems like it is a common problem with Acura MDX. I wonder why there is no recall. The dealer covered the remanufactured part but I still had to pay for labor that ran to ~$3000.

- Douglassville, PA, USA

This is the second transmission I put in my car, warranty expired and car is starting to jerk and make noise when accelerating. It cost way to much money to keep replacing a transmission if all the transmissions are having the same problem. Way to many people are having this issue. Why hasn't this been recalled yet?

- Somers Point, NJ, USA

Transmission started acting up while driving. The transmission fluid cooler connection to radiator failed due to corrosion and galvanic action. Lost all transmission fluid, coolant and transmission fluid got mixed in radiator. This is a known issue in Acura / Honda vehicle but manufacturer is not taking any action.

Transmission start making noise, jerking and problem in shifting. Sometimes it shakes alot. Lot of people had the same problem in the past. I dont understand why there is no recall

- Brampton, NY, USA

I pulled car out of driveway and as I reacher speed of 25 miles it started jerking badly. It stopped after speed increased. Did not happened again for few days and from that day it is getting worse day by day. Lot of noise sometimes when its shifting gear. Also when I get on highway I can smell some fluid burning. Sometimes it jerk very badly on curves.

The transmission cooler connection blew out of the radiator, unfortunately there is no oil pressure switch for transmissions so I had no idea that the trans fluid was pouring all over the road. Lucky for me I was just leaving the house and my friend saw it and stopped me. Upon looking at the part -it has only 3 threads and I have found out this is a common thing for MDX and Pilot SUV's. I could have been in an accident due to the transmission failure that has resulted from this failure by others as I have seen on your site example:. ( Pilot ex-L 244hp 3.5L SOHC 24-valve automatic transmission failure).

Transmission issues.

Gear shift lever became harder and harder to shift over the time and then seized. Noticed heavily corroded shift lever linkage at the transmission end. The linkage design seems to be a poor. Exposure to elements makes it to corrode and seize. I had to apply WD40 to loosen the linkage and then coat it heavily with anti-seize compound.

I was driving down the road when my car jerked and then would not shift out of 1st gear. I had to have it towed in and was told that my transmission needed to be replaced.

- Cleveland, TN, USA

Transmission has intermittent vibration between 30-40 mph. Lasts approximately 10 seconds. Acura is aware of the problem but will not fix the transmission.

- Olathe, KS, USA

As driving to work the vehicle all of a sudden stop shifting gears in the middle of the highway I was lucky enough to be able to stop to the right shoulder lane without getting into an accident. Prior to the car not shifting gears I heard a grinding metal noise coming from the middle of the engine, a noise that I've been hearing for the past couple of weeks. Come to find out it was the torque converter apparently it's a known issue that has been forwarded to Acura but they have done nothing in reference to it.
