Honda Pilot Engine Safety Report | Aug 13, 2013
Reported on Aug 13, 2013
| CAR IS HAVING VIBRATIONS COMING FROM THE ENGINE WHILE GOING IN AND OUT OF VCM - VARIABLE CYLINDER MANAGEMENT SYSTEM. HAPPENS REGULARLY AT 70 MPH WHILE ON CRUISE CONTROL, ON FLAT HIGHWAY GOING UP A SLIGHT HILL THE VIBRATION STARTS. THIS COMES AND GOES, AND I COULD NOT YET REPLICATE WITH THE DEALER. MANY PEOPLE WITH V6 ENGINES WITH VCM IN IT FROM HONDA ARE COMPLAINING ABOUT THIS ISSUE. LOOKS LIKE IT STARTED IN THE PILOT AND IS HAPPENING WITH THE ODYSSEY AS WELL. HONDA WOULD BE FORCED TO LOOK INTO WHAT IS CAUSING THIS VIBRATION AS IT APPEARS PRETTY WIDE SPREAD. *TR | |
