Honda Pilot Power Train Safety Report | Dec 18, 2013
Reported on Dec 18, 2013
| I HAVE A 2012 HONDA PILOT- I PURCHASED USED WITH 9K MILES. I HAVE PUT APPROXIMATELY 5K MILES ON THE VEHICLE AND IMMEDIATELY NOTICED AN ENGINE VIBRATION SIMILAR TO BEING IN THE WRONG GEAR IN A MANUAL TRANSMISSION. I TOOK THE CAR INTO THE HONDA DEALERSHIP AND ASKED THEM TO CHECK THE TRANSMISSION- AS I INITIALLY THOUGHT THAT IT WAS A HUNTING ISSUE WITH THE TRANSMISSION- THE DEALER INDICATED THAT IT WAS NORMAL. THE MORE I DRIVE THE VEHICLE, THE MORE IT APPEARS TO BE RELATED TO THE ENGINE AND NOT THE TRANSMISSION. THE VIBRATION IS VERY ANNOYING AND NOT NORMAL. HONDA NEEDS TO STEP-UP AND TAKE CARE OF THE PROBLEM. TOO MANY ISSUES OUT THERE WITH OTHERS WITH SAME COMPLAINTS. IF HONDA DOES NOT CORRECT SOON IT WILL TELL ME A LOT ABOUT THE QUALITY STATUS OF THEIR BRAND. THIS IS MY 4TH HONDA AND WILL CERTAINLY BE MY LAST THAT IF HONDA FAILS TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM. LET'S SEE IT HONDA- CLOCK IS TICKING... | |
