That is going to be hard my friend! Acura, like most car companies, will almost never admit that anything like this. Your best bet would be to show her Acura-TL and Acura-CL websites. If you never been to Acura-CL.com website, we have an entire section dedicated to Tranny Failures. Other than that...don't know what to say.

I would stop worrying about your mother's whining and just thank God that you get to drive a TL/S at the age of 17!

Smile here is what you do.

Trade the TL-S in for a nice '02 Accord LX. You need to earn the right to drive a TL-S :p

I think he should start out driving a civic, then an accord and when he is ready, the TLS.
