2005 Acura TL Engine problems

The contact owns a 2005 Acura TL. The contact stated that she had parked her vehicle and went inside a store as her children waited inside the vehicle. Her son then texted her from inside the vehicle that the alarm had gone off. Soon after the alarm went off, her daughter noticed that both white and black colored smoke began to emit from the vehicle. Her children exited the vehicle as the front end of the vehicle caught fire. Pedestrians called for the authorities and both the police and fire departments arrived at...

My 2005 acura tl has lost power at least a dozen times while I have been driving on the freeway. The battery also completely drains after the car has not been driven for a day or two. I just replaced the battery and have had the alternator tested at least half a dozen times by 3 different mechanics. My issues sound very similar to the fuse box recall but my vin does not fall under the recall apparently.

In the acura 3.2 Motors, the cylinders have oil release holes that are not smooth which is causing metal shavings to get stuck, shave and damage the cam shafts and cause motor failure. They are causing serious grooves on the outer 2 cam bearings that have the larger release holes. My motor failed due to this. I was driving, car stopped running, I thought my timing slipped. I pulled the motor apart and my cam was seized up after looking into it further. I order a new motor same year, make, model, thinking it was...

Engine noise: a vibration and low buzzing sound in 5th gear caused by normal engine vibration at around 1,500 rpm, requiring a vibration damper near the rear motor mount. Also causing vibration on steering wheel at normal highways speed limits. And causing tires to cup and get bald. Very dangerous to drive on freeway causing steering to be very erratic due to vibration from front and rear broken engine mounts. Check-engine light: the check engine light may illuminate and a trouble code for the coolant sensor...

Was driving in stop & go traffic and the check engine light went on. Approx 50 miles later while driving at 55mph the check engine light started flashing and the engine started running very roughly. Pulled off road and had car towed to dealership. Dealership identified that the ignition coil had water on it which shorted it out. Short also required replacement of one computer in the car. Water was from blocked hose from area directly under windshield which had been blocked by debris. Dealer advised that they had same problem come in a few weeks earlier. In that case, the ignition coil had burned into the engine head, requiring a replacement engine. *Tr

The car experiences fluctuations in vehicle rpm at all speeds while keeping the accelerator pedal constant. This is noticed with and without the air conditioner on and at various speeds but more noticeable at around 40mph. I brought it to my dealers attention at the second year state inspection service (15,793 miles) but nothing was done as I thought I would continue to monitor it. *Tr

Tl*the contact owns a 2005 acura tl. Immediately after the vehicle was purchased in november of 2007, it began idling roughly and the engine vibrated. A few months later, while driving approximately 60-65 mph, the vehicle stalled and would not restart. Approximately 15 minutes later, the vehicle restarted and the contact drove to his residence. Later that week, the vehicle was driven to the dealer for a diagnostic and they stated that the failure was due to build up in the fuel injector. The vehicle was not...

Only after 4 weeks of purchasing a new acura tl 2005, the engine stalled in the middle of traffic. The battery and low oil pressure indicator lamps both came on. The car had to be shut off and re-started four times before the engine re-started. The car was at the dealership for 9 days getting tests run, but they found nothing and wanted to return the car in the same condition!
