So after months of working with paragon on this, they are finally listed “for sale” on the paragon website. Should have ours on in a week or two.

Bummer, Care to share why you sold your TLX? Just curious on your thoughts.

transfer case /tranny issues. And complete wire harness replacement because of corrosion. Both $10k+ issues out of warranty. Didn’t want to deal with that.

but… Is it an Acura warranty? Because if it’s an aftermarket warranty purchased from the dealer, it’s a little bit different.

Yikes!

As I approach tripple digit milage, I am genuinely concerned.

Sadly, we see one a week between the TLX and the MDX Type S.

That is rediculous and is a defect! I wonder what the actual percentage of failure is?

Yes, it is. I’ve had one guy with 140 K on a Type S TLX that is on his third transmission. And I swear once or twice a week we get a car gutted in the back putting wire harnesses in.
