This is my 2nd Acura and my 5th purchase in the Honda family. I want so much to love this car - it’s sporty and fun to drive, and the seats are so comfortable! It’s interior is pretty and it has a ton of options that I love. But all of that falls short when the car just won’t drive despite my diligence in servicing. At 30k miles in and after multiple transmission software updates, I had to completely replace the transmission. I have an undiagnosed electrical issue that sometimes results in the car not recognizing my keys, not turning on, arbitrarily disabling my garage door openers, and generating a buzzing noise when I use the touch screen system that makes me fear I’m going to be shocked. The navigation system is so convoluted that you can’t adjust your air conditioning or radio until it’s fully booted and the seals on my back doors have been replaced multiple times. Because of the massive recall on their transmissions, the voluntary extension of warranty to 10 years, a lawsuit over the transmissions and some really terrible critic reviews, the car has depreciated so much that I’d have to pay someone to take it off my hands. And I just got a call for the latest if recall work - a fuel pump control. I absolutely loved my MDX but I wouldn’t wish this TLX on anyone.

Horrible Transmission

After many years driving BMWs, I decided to try an Acura in 2015. This car has a 9 speed automatic and it has terrible shifting. It goes faster when you take your foot of the gas because it slips into neutral and jerks horribly when shifting down into 2nd or 3rd gear. It has to be worth a class action lawsuit for the defective transmission on a premium car.

Why Doesn't Everyone Drive This Car ?

I bought this car almost four years ago. Since that time I have enjoyed every moment on the road. My husband loves to take it on every curvy road he can find and we both are amazed at the mileage we get on our long road trips, 38 mpg on highway. Can't understand why everyone doesn't own one. I think the reason is they haven't yet had the pleasure of driving one. Don't believe everything you read in Consumer Reports, this is a sports car in a sedate sedan!

Good not great. More lux than sport

First of all I would say the car is more on the luxury car that feels a liitle sporty, but not an overall sport sedan. SO her are my pro/cons. ...PROS: Very quiet they did a good job on sound islolation, excellent fit and finish feels like a tank very solid, good smooth power from engine, very good fuel economy for V6, suspension feels premium, great truning radius due to PAWS, LED lights are excellent, handles well, 4/50 warranty ....CONS: too much cost cutting no spare tire, Leatherette seats instead of leather no advanced saftely feature without higher trim pacakage ( even the civic has lane watch), no new technology ( the accord and new civic both have google auto and apple auto...why doesn't this 36k car????), back up camera has low resolution at night, 9 sp transmission is slow to react can be jerky at times and is the biggest factor holding the car back from being really good...It's a very good value if you lease due to good residual and programs but wouldn't recommend to purchase (overpriced for the V6)

I really love my 2015 Acura TLX it's truly an awesome ride the only drawback is the shifting of the transmission from idle to first gear other than that it's awesome I love everything about it especially the gas mileage
