2007 Acura Tl

I WAS DRIVING IN ICY CONDITIONS THIS MORNING WHEN MY ACURA WARNING LIGHTS FLASHED ON THAT THE VEHICLE STABILIZATION SYSTEM AND ANTILOCK BRAKES WERE NOT OPERATING. I DROVE FOR A FEW MORE BLOCKS AND STOPPED THE CAR TO CALL THE DEALER. THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT SAID: "THIS HAPPENS UNDER ICY CONDITIONS. TURN OFF THE MOTOR AND SEE IF THESE SYSTEMS COME BACK UP. IF THEY DON'T YOU CAN BRING IT IN." IN FACT, THE SYSTEMS DID RETURN TO NORMAL ONCE THE CAR WAS TURNED OFF AND RE-STARTED. BUT, WHAT IF I WAS DRIVING ON AN ICY HIGHWAY. AREN'T ANTILIOCK BRAKES AND VEHICLE STABILIZATION SYSTEMS PRECISELY NEEDED FOR JUST SUCH CONDITIONS. IF THIS IS A "COMMON PROBLEM" FOR THE ACURA DEALER, SHOULDN'T THIS BE REPORTED AND THE PROBLEM FIXED IN A RECALL? IT MAKES NO SENSE THAT THESE SYSTEMS SHOULD FAIL UNDER THE PRECISE CONDITIONS WHEN THEY ARE MOST NEEDED. *TR

1. MANUAL TRANSMISSION FREQUENTLY "POPS" OUT OF 3RD GEAR WHEN SHIFTING RESULTING IN CAR GOING BACK INTO NEUTRAL AND SUBSEQUENT DROP IN SPEED. 2. INCIDENT LEADS TO HIGH RISK OF REAR END COLLISION IN TRAFFIC, POSSIBLE LOSS OF CONTROL, DRIVER ATTENTION DIVERTED TO RE-SHIFTING. 3. DEALER ADVISED MANUFACTURER PREVIOUSLY AWARE OF THE PROBLEM, DOES NOT HAVE A SOLUTION AND DOES NOT KNOW IF/WHEN A SOLUTION WILL BE AVAILABLE. NO REPAIRS MADE OR AVAILABLE. *JB

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 ACURA TL. WHILE DRIVING 35 MPH, THE CONTACT SMELLED A BURNT ODOR COMING FROM THE VEHICLE. HE INSPECTED UNDERNEATH THE HOOD AND DISCOVERED THAT MOST OF THE COMPONENTS WERE MELTED. THE DEALER INFORMED THE CONTACT TO WAIT A WEEK UNTIL AN ENGINEER COULD PROPERLY INSPECT THE VEHICLE. NO REPAIRS WERE MADE. THE POWERTRAIN WAS UNKNOWN. THE CURRENT AND FAILURE MILEAGES WERE 2,500.
