| Since the second day of having my car, my car has been continuously plagued with problems. i have taken my car in for repair over 10 times for various and sometimes repeating problems. this all has occurred within a three year period. i have never had a vehicle that has had so many problems. some of the problems have been so severe that i no longer feel safe driving my car. one of these problems was my transmission spontaneously downshifting from 5th gear to 2nd gear at highway speeds. this caused a tremendous decrease of speed. had someone been in back of me, i would have been seriously injured. the transmission was replaced, but it continues to act spontaneously. after making complaints directly to acura of america, i feel snubbed by them in that they have not sought to assist me other than warranty repairs. | |||
