 Description of the problem2015 acura tlx leased from dealer with just 6 miles. The car exhibited very jerky shifts at low speed. There is usually, but no 100% of the time, one rough shift/vehicle motion just it hit a bump when accelerating from standstill, another one at around 15 mph, and one more of the same just below 40 mph. At times, the car will jerk forward just before it comes to a complete stop. The car also is very difficulty, nearly impossible, to bring to a smooth stop. Acura dealership had diagnosed the car and decided to update its transmission software. They didn't think anything was physically damaged. The car actually drove worse after the reprogramming. The car was rough and jerky at speed between 1 to 40 mph. After several days, the car/transmission seemed to have "learned" how to behave and now i am just left with the rough shift, jerking, and slippage like issues as i had before the service. I am going to the dealership for a second time for the stated problem on november 2. I am hoping that everything will be resolved or acura would take ownership of the problems and declare the vehicle/transmission was manufactured with problems that can not be corrected. I would like acura to either provide me with a tlx without the problems, or another comparable acura vehicle to replace the leased vehicle, or buy back the leased acura tlx. I would like the nhtsa to help address my particular issues as well as help other owners by making acura address the widespread problems with this particular year/model of the tlx.
