Description of the problem	The vehicle unexpectantly shifted out of drive to neutral while going up an inclined road at about 45 mph. The background of the neutral gear "n" indicator was yellow. Engine power was lost for approximately 5 seconds and then recovered when the transmission shifted back to drive without any intervention. I don't recall seeing any kind of error message when this occurred, but it is possible it could have been missed while i was frantically trying to figure out what was happening. After researching this issue on the internet, i discovered that there was a safety recall (16v640000) for a similar consequence which only applies to select vins. My particular vin is not part of the safety recall. The performance of the transmission has always been worrisome. I am the original owner. The transmission rarely shifts smoothly going from 1st to 2nd and 2nd to 3rd gears even after multiple attempts to get this corrected at my auto dealership. It is still not satisfactory, and this latest episode just adds to my consternation. Acura has provided an extended warranty for transmission failure if it is related to the atf warmer. I expressed the issue and my concerns with acura. The case number is not officially open until the issue is diagnosed by an acura dealership.
