I know that the tranny is covered 7/100 now. But shouldn't the roadside assistance also be included in that time interval. I called , its not. Bull**** huh.

 

It doesn;t matter. If you have a transmission failure after 50k miles, Acura would have to reimburse towing and storage expenses, etc...

 

yea but if your tranny fails after 50k, why would they tow. the warranty for roadside is over.

 

if the tranny goes before the 100k, they should reimburse you for the towing

 

steve29, you are overanalyzing. If the tranny, which is covered by a special extended warranty, were to fail and leave you stranded, Acura would definitely pick up the tab. It may not be stated in the letter, but for all practical purposes they would certainly cover any reasonable cost associated with the failure of the transmission.

 

steve29, I feel ya, my 2nd one went out at 52k and i was told my flatbed tow was a courtesy by Acura ass.. I found out through the dealer that any expence ( within reason ) hotel, towing, rental car, would be reimbursed

 

sounds good. i was just making sure. I would love to buy this car at the end of the lease, but with all these tranny issues, what should i do. i heard the problems with the trannys were 2% of the tl's. I wonder how many that was. later guys

 

well all i can say is with almost 131,000 on mine i expect to get atleast another 131,000 miles on it before i get rid of her. i finally had a "updated" tranny put in courtsey of acura at 115,000. i wouldnt worry about it! just drive and enjoy the car! thats what i do!
