99TL Stalling Problem
My friends 99 TL with 93,000 miles on it is stalling while driving. It happens while accelerating and completely gives out. The "key" or ignition light comes on and she has to put into neutral or park to get it started, which it usually starts right back up. It then does this 2 or 3 more times in the next few minutes, then will drive fine. She had the shift interlock replaced by dealer and it didn't stall again for a few weeks. It is inconsistent, unpredictable and really dangerous. Has anyone else had this problem? Thank you!

sounds like what happened to my friends 2000... cept at a traffic light we stopped then it turned green and he hit the gas and nothing happened... we had to start it again... im pretty sure he had his transmission replaced shortly after if that helps at all... idk if the problems are related though

There was a 2002 recall on the ignition switch for the 1999 TLs. If you call Acura on 1-800-382-2238 with the VIN number, they can tell you if that was done.

When it stalls does he lose the dash lights as well as the power windows? If so it is most definitely the ignition switch. I had the same problem recently.
