Description of the problem	My name is [xxx] , in 2014 i walked into marin acura (located in marin, california) and leased a 2015 acura tlx. This was especially an exciting model due to it redesign. Within the first year of my lease i received a recall letter in the mail stating that their was a defect in regards to the transmission. I brought the vehicle to the dealer and they "fixed" it and sent me on my way. One year later, again, i received a letter in the mail from the automobile devision located at your corporate headquarters at 1919 torrance blvd, ca (nhtsa recall # 16v-640). The letter clearly states ? If this malfunction were to occur, it could result in an unexpected loss of motor power, which could reduce vehicle control and increases the risk of a crash?. It also states that the ? Fix? Will become available december 2016, todays date is november 7th, 2016. I have been driving this vehicle for 2 out of my 3 year lease and the transmission has been recalled twice consistently every year. I have put my two children and wife into this vehicle now knowing that the car could have possibly put my family and myself in physical danger and even death. Not because driving is dangerous but because there have been manufacturing defects with the transmission of this acura model and year. I cannot describe what it feels like to have that on the mind of a parent. I see this being handled in one way. Acura takes away the car and refunds me my total vehicle lease investment along with my down payment. Please take this matter into serious consideration as i am fully prepared to legally escalate this matter beyond the consumer-company level. I can't imagine how many acura 2015 tlxs there are nation wide. This experience has been a disaster financially, emotionally and according to acura potentially physically.
