Accelerator Position Pedal Sensor

Has anyone had their APP sensor covered under the powertrain warranty? I'm out of the bumper to bumper warranty on my 06 TL. I tried to make the argument that since all I had was 2nd & 3rd gear with my autotransmission this part was related to the powertrain. I know its a stretch but its not like a window motor going bad. My drive train was affected as I only had 2 gears, could only getup to 45mph (3rd gear only) and was extreamly slow in starting from a stop (2nd gear only). The warranty book notes the the powertrain control module under the transmission is covered. This sensor in essence was a powercontrol type module. I know its a weak argument. I've had it replaced at my Acura dealer and now the car drives fine. They said it was not a warranty item (of course they would). Thanks for any advice. I was going to elevate this to Acura Customer Service unless its a complete was of time.
