Honda Pilot Steering Safety Report | May 15, 2012
Reported on May 15, 2012
| WHEN APPLYING THE BRAKES AT ANY SPEED OVER 50 MPG, THE STEERING WHEEL SHAKES LIKE AN EARTHQUAKE. DEALER SAID BRAKES WERE FINE AND THAT THERE WAS NO ISSUE. NEXT TRIP THE DEALER SAID THE BRAKES MIGHT NEED TO BE REDONE (22K MILES REALLY?) AND THAT THE ROTORS WERE WARPED. REPAIRS WOULD NOT BE COVERED UNDER WARRANTY OR EXTENDED WARRANTY. THIS IS OBVIOUSLY A DEFECT AND NEEDS TO BE HANDLED BY HONDA. NOW APPROACHING 40K MILES AND THE PROBLEM IS MAKING ME NUTS. I'M GOING TO WIND UP PAYING OUT OF POCKET FOR THEIR POOR DESIGN. I JUST HOPE THE NEW ROTORS & PADS ON THE FRONT END WILL MAKE IT GO AWAY. *TR | |
