While driving car, speed decelerated despite pressing on gas/accelerator pedal. Total ability to control speed on high way ended, as car crawled to a speed of under 5mph, nearly resulting in being hit by vehicles behind me. Immediately called independent mechanic who advised me to cut off ignition and restart the car. Highly dangerous to even attempt on a highway during rush hour traffic, nearly resulting in a multiple car crash. Reproduced several times until mechanic was able to diagnose and correct an issue unknown to me. There was no warning light indicator at all, no messages on car navigation/information panel.

While driving at approximately 50mph the car suddenly stalled. Vsa and transmission light illuminated. I pulled over to a safe spot, turned they vehicle off and back on. The lights went off and driving seemed normal, but after driving further it happened again. Took the car to dealership and they said it was the pedal position sensor, paid to have it replaced. The next day we drove to Texas from nc and the same thing happened. We called the dealership and they said it may take a month for everything to reprogram. We gave it a year and nothing changed so took it to a mechanic who discovered the part was never replaced. We paid to have it replace again. Problem is now resolved.

While making a left turn, I head loud noise on the driver side. The car stopped accelerating. After I hit the gas pedal much harder, it started accelerating but very slowly. The movement felt like jerking movement. I stopped the car on the side of the road, and made an appointment at the Acura dealership. They found out that the front lower control arm bushings were cracked. Not replaceable under warranty, even though they acknowledged that all Acura have this issue, some at 35K miles, some at higher miles.

Acura TL 2008: One incident, occurred April 8th, 2008. Car took off from a parking space, just as I was inching it forward with my foot on the brake. The brake would not stop the car. It jumped two curbs, I avoided hitting two parked cars. The car stopped with a pump of the foot brake, about 90 feet from where it took off. The speed was enough to go over two curbs, blowing out the front passenger tire, damaging the rim, and damaging the rear passenger tire. The impact caused a slight indentation to the roof of the Acura, next to the sun roof.
