What owners wrote
Tl* the contact owns a 2002 acura tl. The contact was driving approximately 10 MPH into a residential driveway when the accelerator pedal became stuck upon engagement. The brake pedal was applied with force repeatedly and an increase in acceleration occurred, causing the vehicle to uncontrollably accelerate. The vehicle crashed into a garage, an unoccupied parked vehicle and the continued through the garage interior walls. The contact immediately shifted the gear into reverse.
My transmission died on 21 nov 2003, @ 42,500 miles. The dealer replaced it. Again, I suffered a failure, on 23 jan 2004...I thought it was the transmission again, but dealer stated it was the idle air control valve...which - he said...can mimic transmission failure due tio improper engine commands. I'm not sure I believe this. This is an acura 3.2 tl/type s model.
