Description of the problem | While the vehicle was unattended (no driver present) and transmission was engaged in park; i was present when using the remote started. Upon starting (vehicle was started), it rolled up a slight inclined driveway roughly 3-6 inches , under power; then rolled back she same distance. Then a distinct click was heard. The car continued running in idle as normal with the remote start. Acura has reported transmission issues with the potential for the car to disengage from park (model sh-awd) and roll away. This car was recalled for "roll" while parked and not running, , but passed and inspection by the dealer. Unlike the previous recall this issue entailed a "shift into forward", from park, under power while unattended. I notified acura customer service to report it, was told to bring it in, but if the issue cannot be recreated then it cannot be repaired. This event coupled with the previous recall, has me concerned that acura is not addressing serious safety concerns of its consumers. |
