I have owned this car since new, this is not the first time this has happened. The car has an auto idle stop feature. Which when certain contains are meet and the car is at a stop it will turn off the engine. When the brake pedal is released, (and from other factors) the car will restart the engine so driving can resume. The issue that I am reporting is that the car does NOT restart, the engine is dead. The driver has to press the engine start button a few times while trying to get the car started. This has happened to me more than 6 times over the life of the car. In each situation replacing the battery resolved the issue.

I was merging on to the freeway going about 60mph, with traffic right behind me. Car started decelerated and the dash board lit up. A car behind me had to swerve to avoid hitting me. I put on my hazard lights and tried to move to the shoulder the car was only going about 5mph at the time. I turned the car off and restarted to see if it would move, but it was still going about 5mph. After doing this a couple of times I was able to get the car the move at about 20 mph. The dash board is still lit up.

My engine got stalled while driving the car and I have to press on push button to restart the car. It's a safaty issue. I have seen a recall on these and verified if the repair is done and looks like it was repaired back in 2019.

While driving on interstate I-15 in Las Vegas the car suddenly without any warning stalled and engine shutoff in the middle of the interstate. No warning messsages or indicators on dashboard. There was sufficient fuel in the car. Several attempts to start were made but were unsuccessful. Mu family and I were dangerously trapped on the Interstate for 30 minutes. I could not move the vehicle to safety. After 30 minutes I attempted to start and it started as if nothing happened and I was able to drive it again without problems. I am not a trained technician but I suspect it could be a fuel pump problem. I hace read that there have been recent safety recalls on Acura/Honda cars for fuel pump issues. Thank you for keeping us safe on our roads.

My car completely lost all power and died on the freeway. All the dash board lights came on and I could break or steer and the car was stuck in Neutral.

When driving on a windy road around 40mph the car went into limp mode causing the car to suddenly decelerate to 5 mph which nearly caused an accident by the car behind me. The car then started displaying multiple error codes on the dash (electric parking brake problem, emissions system problem, brake system problem, brake hold system problem, vehicle stability assist problem, hill start assist problem, lane departure warning problem).

Constant battery draining from unknown issue within the electrical system. I am currently on my third car battery after purchasing my car in January 2016 with 108 miles on the car. I have been using a portable battery jumper for the last month because of this on going issue. The car would not start after parking overnight and have caused a disturbance in my life before commuting to and from work, along with to covid19 vaccination appointments. Another issue is the auto start/stop function when pressing on the brake pedal at a red light where the engine is suppose to turn off and back on in order to be gas efficient. I have been forced to turn of the feature due to the car dying completely in at a red light and causing a traffic jam. It has happened multiple times and have caused additional inconvenience in my daily commute. I believe both issues are related and it is an issue with Acura due to multiple individuals across the country when I have done research within Acura Tlx forums.

There have been a couple of incidents where I will be driving and my car suddenly jolts and coasts to a stop. It seems as though the car is being placed in neutral while I am driving because when I press on the gas. It will just rev the engine. The check engine light will turn on as well. I typically turn off and on the car and the car will then work just fine. These incidents seem to happen when I am driving on a city street.

On June 7th 2020 I was driving my car, it started to shake. As I started to drive back home to see what was going on all the problems showed up in the screen. I had to drive with my emergency hazard lights on because I couldn't go more then 25 mph or it would shake even more. We have at least 12 pictures of what's showing in the screen. We are only able to upload one.

Soy based wiring placed in vehicle by Acura manufacture causes an attraction to rodents, squirrels, mice to eat the wires. The rodents are attracted to the taste of the material. Since January of this year 2020 I have sustained damage three times to my 2015 Acura Tlx which cost thousands of dollars to repair. This soy based material is being placed in the newer models to save on cost for the manufacturer, but leave costumers, like myself, at a deficit of money and time for repairs. It is also unsafe, because one never knows when the car will stop running or if it will even start. I have been effected by this in January of 2020, March 2020 and again in May 2020. I also own a 2015 Honda Accord and my husband a 2009 Toyota that are parked in the same area and no such damage has occurred to these older model cars. The corporate office is aware of the soy based material, but refuses to take responsibility. If this soy based material was not put in the cars to begin with then rodents would not be attracted. My older cars stand as a testament as well as my neighbors cars that are not affected. There are other newer makes of vehicles that are noted in research that are being eaten by rodents due to soy. This has caused me time and money and was never disclose to me upon purchase. I am very disappointed and consider this a danger to myself because I don't know if or when the car would stop while I'm driving. I found out all three times upon attempting to start my car in the morning while on my way to work. I got messages that told me to "park the car, check engine, check transmission"... I consider this a manufacturers defect and while I make car payments I have been unable to drive my vehicle. My car is a 2015 Acura Tlx that I just purchased in January of 2019 certified preowned. This soy based material is tasty to rodent and is causing them to eat at my wires.

Starting in Nov 2019 my Acura Tlx started to spontaneously decelerate and lose engine power when in motion. Error code of P0087 was provided by Acura of milford, ct and was highly suggestive of replacing high pressure fuel pump. The engine fuel pump was replaced in early Dec 2019 however the car continued with loss of power, terrible gas mileage, poor acceleration and multiple warnings illuminated. Acura of milford was contacted and they noted it may be the other fuel pump that needed to be replaced. The second in tank fuel pump was replaced mid Dec 2019 with no improvement. The car was brought to Acura Dec 31, 2019 and they said there was nothing to be found, they reset the P0087 code and did a hard reset. The car still continued with the same symptoms but now with a humming noise present. In Feb 2020, the fuel rail and sensor was replaced, yet still no improvement. The car was taken back to Acura and once again they reset the error code and noted they only found corrosion near the sensor and they cleaned it off. Car was driving much worse now and if it loss power it would not start up unless cranked 15-25 times in a 10 min window. March 2020 the spark plugs were replaced and the car is still not driving right, all symptoms still present and the humming noise is getting louder. This car has loss power while in motion randomly in the middle of traffic, both on street and most dangerously on the highway, embarrassing but thankful to some good samaritans that have exited their vehicle to push me safety on multiple occasions. Acura can not duplicate the problems yet just resets the error code and sends me on my way to call if it happens again. It has been happening frequently since Nov 2019 and no one can tell me what the issue is, even after I have spent thousands of dollars trying to fix this car based off their guesses.

While driving straight or turning left or right, occasionally the car will fail to accelerate when the gas pedal is pressed. The engine appears to go to an idle speed for 1-2 seconds and then the car accelerates. This has been brought to the attention of the local dealer multiple times but they (and Acura) are unable or unwilling to fix this problem. I have sent them video of the tachometer dropping to ~900rpm when this happens. They state there are no error codes or information that indicates anything is wrong. This seems to match safety problems 11121786, 10775339, 10695446, and 10694812. Another problem the vehicle has is a shudder in the transmission at certain speeds. Shifting to a different gear makes the shudder go away. Dealer states this is just how the transmission works. Transmission was replaced around 51K miles. Old transmission did not have this problem. Dealer said a fluid change might help. It did not.

The car automatically switches to neutral and shuts off while driving. I bought the car brand new from john Eagle Acura and have had this problem the entire time that I have owned the vehicle. The dealership replaced the transmission and starter on the car less than 3 months after pruchase. The car continues to switch gears on its own and shuts off! the dealership says that nothing is wrong with the car. Please beaware this car is not safe to drive!!!
