Anybody knows the VIN information of the Transmission Recall

I have a 03 TL. I checked the ownerlink out but it does not say that my car has any recall.

Because the news says that the recall includes only some 03 TL, I am curious to know whether my car is under the recall.

There is no recall for the transmission on any model. American Honda is simply extending the powertrain warranty on the transmission only to 7 yrs/100,000 miles. If your vehicle qualifies, you will receive a letter from Acura in the mail. AFAIK, there is no list available that specifies which 2003 models will be included.

On one of the threads there was a poster who mentioned he called Acura and gave his VIN (03 TL-S), and he wasn't affected.

Acura didn't give him the cut-off date, but he did post his thread.. so if yours is after his, then you're in luck (assuming Acura didn't lie or anything).

My 03 TLS was made in July 02, and mine was several thousand later than his... so good luck. Try a search for "VIN" "Transmission" etc... sorry, can't refer to the exact link.
