NHTSA — Suspension: Front Problems

CarComplaints.com Seal Of This Might Hurt

CarComplaints.com Notes: We all want our SUVs to be able to stop on a dime, just not randomly and without warning. But that's what was happening to 2005 Pilot owners: their vehicles were slamming on the brakes even when they didn't. A government investigation of this problem led to a recall in March of 2013.

Another issue that keeps popping up is transmission fluid mixing with coolant in the radiator which is causing transmission failure, a costly repair to say the least.

Simultaneous failure of left and right front wheel bearings at 90K miles. Damage could lead to catastrophic bearing failure and loss of vehicle control. Vehicle is in the SE United States with excellent roads and weather. Bilateral failure is not based on any regional conditions or driving conditions (no towing/no trails or offroad) but can only be a result of faulty initial parts. All work done by dealership in past. Awaiting response from Honda corporate concerning this issue-no resolution to date.
