This is my sixth Acura and probably my last. I'm leasing a 16 TLX and wish I read these reviews before signing. The car has the same vibration issue over 60 mph that I've been now reading about in many different postings. I noticed it before picking up the car and was assured it would be taken care of. Big rush to get the car out the door to me and the vibration was overlooked by them. My mistake to take delivery! It's now been back twice...1st time snarky service guy told me not to drive so fast and tires were re-balanced. 2nd time one tire was replaced. The service manager now claims that Acura is working on a fix but has no idea what or when. In the meantime, I have a defective car that I hate. Oh... and the touchscreen display is a nightmare too. If I could get out of this lease without destroying my credit I would do it today. I'm very disappointed and angry!

This is not a premium car experience. The dealership previously gave me a decent deal on a used car and I was treated fairly, so I decided to try their product. The car they told me was there was "sold" as I drove there. This was a new group of employees (common practice). I had to unnecessarily negotiate for hours to get close to where I wanted to be on another one. Test drove the four cylinder and it was noisy, buzzy, and slow. The car with the V6 is a good highway cruiser. Pretty smooth and powerful with the V6 on the highway. Has some road/wind noise. Car handles OK. Transmission is jerky around town. The ergonomics and electronics interface are a nightmare. You have to do numerous screen functions just to turn on seat heaters. Takes your eyes off the road. Banged my shin every other time I got in the car. The seats are not very comfortable. Ride is OK. We were so disappointed with the car we traded after 9 months. Not a premium car experience (did I say that already?). We previously had a Ford SUV and liked it. We bought a loaded Ford Fusion Titanium 2.0 Turbo. Better acceleration, smoother transmission, better seats, much better ergonomics, much better Sony stereo, better controls and sync3 interface. Better rebound characteristics over bumps, same amount road noise, same handling characteristics, more room, bigger trunk, very quite with less wind noise on freeway. All this much better car and with rebates and discounts it was $10,000.00 less than the "premium" Acura TLX. Would not buy again. Update: I was never more glad to get rid of a car than I was with the Acura TLX. 2019 Update: I reiterate. I was never more glad to get rid of a car than I was with the Acura TLX.

I was a former Acura TL owner and was blown away by the performance of the TLX. Even though it's a mere 1.5inches shorter, and car is extremely comfortable, quick, and has all of the features of a luxury car at a great value.
