CARS.COM

Vehicles Affected: Approximately 8,400 model-year 2015 Acura TLX sedans, including two- and all-wheel-drive versions

The Problem: The transmission wire harness connection may have insufficient crimps, possibly causing the transmission to unexpectedly shift into neutral, increasing the risk of a rollaway crash.

The Fix: Dealers will, based on the automatic transmission serial number, update the transmission software to prevent the transmission from shifting into neutral due to a faulty crimp; work will be done for free.

What Owners Should Do: Acura manufacturer Honda began notifying owners on Jan. 13; the automaker initially notified the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration of the defect on Sept. 1, 2016. Owners can call Acura at 888-234-2138, NHTSA’s vehicle-safety hotline at 888-327-4236 or visit www.safercar.gov to check their vehicle identification number and learn more.
