Description of the problem	Trans shifts are very jerky up or down. Sometimes does not downshift when braking. Scares you when you have to slam on the brakes to slow down or throw car into "n". Pulling out into traffic can be scary as there is often a delay between acceleration and the engagement of the tranny. Then the jerky shifting occurs. I am not always sure if my car will pull out into traffic quickly and safely without me being rear ended. I will not let my wife drive the car. I will be going to the dealer this week for service. I have waited this long because the sales person told me the car needs 5,000 miles to "break in" the tranny. I have noticed reading on the web that this seems to be a common problem with the new model (8 speed double clutch auto with 4cyl. Engine.) it seems that american honda has issued a tsb #15-021 (dated april 23, 2015. That addresses the problem, but i keep reading that this fix is not working and that many dealers are telling the customer "it's the way you drive it. We are not getting any bad computer codes". American honda in concert with their dealership network are covering up a defect that is very dangerous safety problem. This is growing into a major problem... I will begin to document all future dealership paperwork in anticipation of filing a claim under my states lemon law. I will never buy another acura again. My first was an acura tsx and it was an excellent car. I am very surprised that honda has done down the tubes. By the way, this is the first acura model built in the usa versus japan. Had i known that ,i nwver would have purchased this car.
