Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: At speeds exceeding 70 mph there is a vibration which can be felt through the steering wheel, gas pedal, and at times the floor of the whole vehicle. this usually occurs at 73-74mph. after repeated services and balancing of tires the dealership took the tires to perform a road force test. this ruled out the tires causing the problem. after the 4th attempt to correct the vibration a honda case manager said that it could be a "characteristic of the vehicle". this was not mentioned by the sales person at the time of purchase and i believe it is a defect in the suspension or drivetrain. i found many others have had this complaint. see www.honda-pilot.org under forums then sustained vibrations at speeds over 70mph. the service person said this was not a safety issue but i would disagree. *ak |
