Got an update, dad brought the car in to Cerritos, Acura. They ran some tests and opened up his tranny. The fluid was still clear and no discoloration on the gears. Service manager said it's early stages and knew that it'd just get worse so basically they kept the car and drove it till something broke.
Now they're giving him a rebuilt tranny and it should take about a week.

That's a dangerous thing for something like that to happen, can be just as dangerous as a tire blowing out. Could Acura be the next Ford Exploder?

I just bought a 2000 TL, 5 months ago. the car has 60k on it. After 20k, i had the check engine light come on twice. The dealer looked at it but couldn't find a problem. Now the SRS light is on constantly. Could it be an electrical problem? Can anybody explain, maybe a similar situation?
