After a Camry and a Maxima which were great for over 150,000 miles, we bought our first "luxury" car. Today, after 3 years and 30,000 miles, it is getting a new transmission. As soon as we get it home, we'll trade it in for something more reliable. Otherwise, why not expect another problem at 60,000 when we are no longer under warranty? What a disappointment!
Fun but with consistent issue

Love the car, consistent great dealer service (3 different dealers in 3 years b/c of job transfers). Only issue is a consistent trim flaw (seen on several other 00 and 01 too) The rear door trim peels/falls apart after about 8,000 miles. Actual service notice was sent by Acura to dealers. A real annoyance every 9 months to replace.

Transmission failure at 10000 miles

I have had car only five months with 10000 miles and was told today I need a "new" rebuilt transmission. The whole reason for buying Acura is reliability, not with mine... Anyone else out there having problems with their transmission? By the way the "rebuilt" is warranted for only 36000 miles if purcahsed. Not a happy camper...
Uncomfortable seat design

2002 TL-S,10 months old, 22K miles. When driving or riding, I having pain in my hip that runs down my leg from a sciatic nerve problem that had occurred years before during the time I was driving a 1984 Honda Prelude. I can sit in other vehicles comfortably without pain. Seat bottom seems to have little padding and the lumbar support is weak. The headrest pushes my head forward uncomfortably. The overall seat design doesn't fit me. Passenger seat is worse because it can't be raised. Paint chips on the front end; no clear coat? Carpet is thin and wearing. Great gas mileage, great power, beautiful car, but it's gotta go.
Disappointed

I purchased an TL after driving a 92 Accord for 10 years. What a dissappointment. The 10 year old Accord is much more fun to drive, handling is better, drivers seat much more comfortable. I am thinking about selling it and going back to an Accord. The TL is not worth the extra money. This is a subpar car with nice features at a fairly reasonalbe price.
