I stopped hitting the acl.com board last summer, just started up again a couple weeks ago.
But I heard they extended the warranty on our tranny anyways, is that true?
I tried to do a search on it but I couldn't find it.
If this is true, this isn't as relevant as it once was?

Yes, every CL & TL 2001+ owner was mailed a letter detailing an extension on the transmission warranty.

I never heard about it. And, now that tranny #3 is being installed, I STILL haven't heard anything from Acura. I found out through y'all.

Yes it was closed.
We don't need the NHTSA. We don't need a recall.
Honda is providing all the help we need.
Except those that are looking to profit from this or need help with their lawsuits or want a new car...well you're SOL.
All the rest of us who want new/fixed trannies, we are getting them...no?
If you have a legitimate lawsuit, you don't need the NHTSA.
