 Description of the problemBattery acid from the manufacturer's original battery leaked, and damaged the transmission wiring harness, which sits underneath the battery. Until detected, this caused sporadic warnings and multiple malfunctions while driving that would appear, but then go away. Some months later, the car started but the computer would not shift from park. The instrument cluster listed numerous, unrelated system issues: "adaptive cruise control problem" ; "stop driving when safe. Transmission problem. See manual." ; "electric parking brake problem" ; "emissions system problem" ; "transmission system problem" ; "transmission problem apply parking brake when parked" ; "vehicle stability assist (vsa) problem" ; "precision all wheel steer problem" ; "collision mitigation system problem" ; "road departure mitigation system problem" ; "blind spot info system problem." this vehicle has a shift-by-wire drive selector, and there is no mechanical way for a consumer to disengage the transmission from the drivetrain. The vehicle was stuck in park and needed special equipment to be safely moved onto a tow-truck, which took the manufacturer's roadside service two days to address. The wiring harness was replaced under warranty, but took several days for a repair. The 2015 acura tlx seems to be known for reacting in this way for any type of electrical or voltage variability from any number of its electronic systems, including while driving.
