Consumer Description

LIKE SO VERY MANY OTHER HONDA PILOT OWNERS OF THE TIMEFRAME, I HAVE EXPERIENCED A TRANSMISSION LEAK AND FAILURE FROM A RADIATOR FAILURE - AND THOUGH HONDA HAD SETTLED A CLASS-ACTION SUIT ABOUT THESE PROBLEMS WITH A MINOR WARRANTY EXTENSION... MY FAILURE, OF COURSE, HAPPENED SHORTLY AFTER THAT EXTENSION. I AM OUT NEARLY $5,000 AND NEARLY GOT KILLED WHEN MY CAR DIED BECAUSE HONDA HAS FAILED TO PROPERLY RECALL THESE TRANSMISSIONS. SHAME ON HONDA - AND SHAME ON YOU FOR NOT HOLDING THEM TO TASK EVEN AFTER THEY SETTLED A LAWSUIT (WITH SUCH A LAME AND STILL UNSAFE RESPONSE). *TR
