The Acura TL was totally redesigned for the 2004 model year. For 2006, a tire pressure monitoring system was added to the standard features list. Acura says its engineers have worked to reduce torque steer (the tendency of a front-wheel-drive vehicle to pull to one side during hard acceleration) in models equipped with manual transmissions. Like all 2006 Acuras, the TL gets an extended powertrain warranty. Vehicle Stability Assist, anti-lock brakes, and traction control are also standard on all TLs.
