The 'inconveniences' were as follows:
1. Towing 60 miles -- $75 after AAA discount
2. Two weeks of car rental -- $400
3. Since this happened in KC and I had to get back to SF before the car would be ready (approx 1 week), I had to fly back to KC and drive the car back -- $150 for the airfare
4. Two nights worth of hotel stays in driving the car 2000 miles -- $120
I tried to make this claim at the time these incidents took place but Acura wasn't having it since they figured they were doing me a favor by covering the $6000 in parts and labor that it took to get me a rebuilt transmission since it was out of warranty. I thought that was fair until I found out that the warranty has been extended.
You should definitely contact Acura Client Service and get those expenses covered as I believe that they should. If you are in San Mateo, go to Hopkins Acura in Redwood City. It might not be the biggest dealership but they do great work there and are very friendly.
