Honda Pilot Power Train Automatic Transmission Safety Report | Apr 23, 2011
Reported on Apr 23, 2011
| I BOUGHT 2011 HONDA PILOT EX-L RES AT THE END OF APRIL, 2011. I NOTICED THERE WAS A PINK COLOR OIL LEAK (3 SIZE) ON MY GARAGE FLOOR ON THE FIRST DAY AFTER ABOUT 60 MILE DRIVE. AFTER THEN, IT KEPT LEAKING EVERY TIME AFTER RUNNING THE CAR. I HAVE HONDA DEALER CHECKED IT YESTERDAY. I WAS TOLD THAT WAS THE TRANSMISSION FLUID LEAK. I WAS SHOCKED WHEN I HEARD THIS. IT IS A BRAND NEW CAR AND TRANSMISSION OIL LEAKED AT THE FIRST DAY WHEN I DROVE FROM DEALER BACK TO HOME (~60 MILES). THE DEALER COULD NOT LOCATE WHERE EXACTLY THE LEAK COMES FROM AND WAITING FOR THE RESPONSE AND DECISION FROM HONDA CORP TO EITHER FIX IT REPLACE THE TRANSMISSION. I SEARCHED AND KNEW THAT THERE ARE LOTS THE SAME ISSUES ON PILOT. THE MORE YOU DRIVE, THE WORSE THE PROBLEM IS EVEN AFTER REPAIRING IT. I WISH I KNEW THIS ISSUE BEFORE I BOUGHT THIS JUNK. *TR | |
