I am one of many owners of an Acura/Honda J35 V6 engine that has had a connecting rod bearing failure at low mileage to no fault of the owner. In this case that is me. I bought this vehicle 5,000 miles ago from a dealer and it ran great. No issues. Ran trouble codes. None. Out of no where it started ticking. I stopped. Many other people who don-??t know cars wouldn-??t. If you keep driving the vehicle with this engine failure it eventually seizes the motor and you lose power steering. Connecting rods can snap and be projected through the engine as well. This is an uncommon failure in engines unless neglected or there is a defect. Honda even had to recall vehicle many years ago for the same exact issue which is now occurring again. I am encouraging other owners to file a complaint that are in our Acura forum online. Will be able to submit documentation when car is fixed. At dealer now.
I was driving and a lot of warning lights came on, on the dash and 10 different warning messages in the message center. The alignment instantly messed up jerking my car to the right and I had to try to gain control and correct. Luckily, I was only going about 25-30mph and was able to correct. If this would have occurred moving faster the outcome could have been very different. Dealership is stating it is the P-AWS actuator on my 2018 Acura TLX that have gone out and caused this to occur. Appears to be an issue many have encountered with two different Acura models according to what I have found online and a costly repair of $6,000. Someone could really have been hurt with this issue if going at a speed of normal driving or on a freeway.
There are so many lights flashing, my vehicle will not go over 50MPH, My steering wheel is no longer straight its actually to the left. I brought it to Acura and they are stating its a REAR TOE ACTUATOR issue and refuse to cover the $5,100 fee to fix this issue that has had a SAFETY BULLETIN posted for a 2015 TLX. There has been a bulletin about this according to Carvana so ACURA is aware of this issue but refuse to recall this issue. Warning lights are as follow, BRAKE SYSTEM ISSUE, ROAD DEPARTURE MITIGATION SYSTEM PROBLEM, Adaptive Cruise Control problem, VEHICLE STABILITY ASSIST PROBLEM, PRECISION ALL WHEEL STEER PROBLEM, POWER STEERING FAILURE. This vehicle only has 46,987 miles.
The contact owns a 2018 Acura Tlx. While driving at an unknown speed, on three occasions, the steering wheel seized while making either a left or right turn. The brake pedal was applied, but felt stiff and failed to respond. The accelerator pedal was applied, but the vehicle failed to move. In addition, the electrical system, emission, transmission, stability control, all wheel assist, blind spot, cruise control, and lane assist indicators illuminated. The vehicle was towed to Acura of memphis (2611 ridgeway rd, memphis, tn 38119) where it was diagnosed that the vehicle overheated and the automatic start malfunctioned. The vehicle was repaired, but the failures recurred. The manufacturer was not notified and opened case number: 08586429. No further assistance was provided. The failure mileage was 31,081. The VIN was not available.
