  1. Suspension, Oct 22, 2013

    REAR SUSPENSION IS LEAKING. MY SUV IS LESS THAN 3 YRS OLD AND ONLY HAS 21351 MILES. *TR

  2. Suspension, Sep 6, 2013

    THE VEHICLE SHUDDERED AND VIBRATED WHEN BREAKS WERE COMPRESSED AT HIGH SPEED. STEERING WHEEL ALSO VIBRATED WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS DRIVEN AT SPEEDS OVER 50 MPH. TOOK THE CAR IN FOR SERVICE AND WAS TOLD THAT THE ROTORS WOULD NEED TO BE FIXED, BUT WAS ALSO TOLD THAT THERE WAS A PROBLEM WITH THE COMPLIANCE BUSHINGS LEAKING AND THAT THEY WOULD HAVE TO BE REPLACED AT A COST OF $750. I STATED THAT THE CAR WAS NOT THAT OLD, WAS NEVER DRIVEN 'OFF ROAD,' AND WAS JUST OVER 50,000 MILES. DEALER STATED THAT THIS WAS A MUST FIX PROBLEM AND THAT THEY HAVE SEEN THIS ISSUE WITH OTHER PILOTS. THE DEALER CHECKED WITH HONDA ABOUT GETTING A BREAK ON THE COST TO FIX THE PROBLEM, AND HONDA AGREED TO SUBSIDIZE PART OF THE COST. MANY CONCERNS MOVING FORWARD ABOUT THE RELIABILITY OF THIS PART. THIS IS NOT A REASONABLE REPAIR FOR A RELATIVELY NEW VEHICLE MARKETED AS A SPORT UTILITY VEHICLE WITH 4-WHEEL DRIVE.

  3. Suspension, May 5, 2013

    2011 HONDA PILOT EX-L WITH 46750 MILES HAS CRACKED COMPLIANCE BUSHINGS. PER DISCUSSIONS WITH SERVICE WRITER AT LOCAL HONDA DEALERSHIP, THIS HAS BECOME A VERY COMMON PROBLEM ON 2010 TO 2012 PILOTS. THEY STRONGLY RECOMMEND REPLACING THEM. UPON LOOKING UP THE ITEM ON THE INTERNET, THERE IS QUITE A BIT OF NOISE BY HONDA OWNERS ABOUT HAVING TO REPLACE THIS BUSHING ON VARIOUS MODELS AND YEARS. APPARENTLY, HONDA HAS OR IS IN THE PROCESS OF REDESIGNING THIS BUSHING. IF VEHICLE IS OUT OF WARRANTY, ONE HAS TO PAY FOR THE REPAIRS BUT IN A FEW CASES IT APPEARS THAT HONDA REDUCED THE COST OR MAY OF FIXED IT FOR FREE AFTER THE OWNERS PRESSED THEIR CASE. THE ONLY TIP OFF THAT I HAD ABOUT A PROBLEM WAS A SLIGHT THUMPING NOISE WHEN I TURNED THE STEERING WHEEL. OTHERS PER THE INTERNET HAD PULLING TO ONE SIDE OR THE OTHER OR JUDDERING WHEN APPLYING THE BRAKES OR PREMATURE TIRE WEAR. I AM NOT SURE HOW GREAT OF A SAFETY ISSUE THIS IS OR COULD BE IF THESE BUSHINGS WERE TO BREAK BUT IT IS APPARENT THE HONDA IS AWARE OF THE PROBLEM BUT NOT LETTING ANYBODY KNOW ABOUT OTHER THAN WHEN YOU TAKE IT IN FOR SERVICE AND YOU ARE TOLD ABOUT THE PROBLEM AND HOW MUCH IT WILL COST. *TR

  4. Suspension, Oct 24, 2012

    THE CAR AT 50 MPH WOULD LOOSE CONTROL WHEN YOU GO OVER A BUMP ON THE ROAD AND IF THE SURFACE OF THE HIGHWAY IS IRREGULAR IT SLIDE SIDEWAY AND BOUNCES UP AND DOWN WE TOOK IT IN A FEW TIMES TO THE HONDA SERVICE AND WAS TOLD THAT EVERYTHING WAS OK ONE TIME THEY TOLD ME IT WAS THE PRESSURE OF THE TIRES AND ANOTHER TIME I NEEDED NEW BRAKES SO HERE I AM WITH A CAR THAT IS VERY SCARY TO DRIVE I AM GOING TO TRY AGAIN TOMORROW TO BRING IT IN TO THE HONDA SERVICE AND HOPEFULLY THEY WILL FIX IT. *TR

  5. Suspension, Wheels, Service brakes, Sep 2, 2012

    NOTICED A VIBRATION IN THE GAS PEDAL WHILE DRIVING AT ANY SPEED. FEEL EVERY LIKE BUMP IN THE ROADS. ALSO WHEN SLOWING TO A STOP AND TURNING OR BACKING OUT OF A PARKING SPOT, I FEEL/HEAR A HARD VIBRATION ON BRAKE. TOOK TO DEALER, THEY STATED WARPED ROTORS...TO NEW TO HAPPEN. GOT FULL BRAKE JOB AT $340. DROVE OFF, ISSUE STILL PRESENT. AT THIS VISIT TIRES WERE ROTATED AND BALANCE TOO. NEXT DAY ALSO NOTICED ALL 4 RIMS WERE DAMAGED FROM THE TOOL THAT REMOVED MY TIRES. TOLD SUPERVISOR EVERYTHING I LEARNED ABOUT OTHER PILOT OWNERS AND THIS POSSIBLE DEFEAT OF ROTORS. THEY STILL HAVE MY TRUCK (4 DAYS SO FAR) TRYING TO IDENTIFY ISSUE. THEY DO AGREE THERE IS AN ISSUE. THEY ARE GOING TO DO ROAD FORCE BALANCING NEXT. I WILL FIGHT FOR A REFUND OF THIS BRAKE JOB AND WILL CONTINUE TO PURSUE UNTIL I AM SATISFIED. *TR

  6. Suspension, Aug 21, 2012

    UNEVEN WORN OUT REAR RIGHT TIRE CAUSED BY SUSPENSION ROD BENDING DUE TO AN ACCIDENT RELATED AS CLAIMED BY HONDA AUTOMOBILE. THE VIDEO OF THE BEND I HAVE DO SHOWED OTHERWISE, SUSPENSION ROD DO NOT APPEAR AS ANY IMPACT RELATED, IT APPEARED AS MANUFACTURER'S DEFECT WHICH HONDA IS AVOIDING TO TAKE THE RESPONSIBILITY. I TOLD THEM THAT I HAVE NOT HAD ANY ACCIDENT WITH THE CAR. AND WHICH TYPE OF IMPACT WILL CAUSE SUCH A SUSPENSION ROD TO BEND WITHOUT AFFECTING OTHER SURROUNDING FRAGILE COMPONENTS. ALSO WHY IS THE IMPACT VERY ISOLATIVE, NEAT AND APPEARED CORRODED. *TR

  7. Steering, Suspension, Service brakes, Jun 13, 2012

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
