Consumer Description

WE PURCHASE THIS VEHICLE AS A CERTIFIED CAR IN 2012. AFTER DRIVING FOR A WEEK OR SO I NOTICE THAT THE CAR VIBRATE OR SHAKES WHEN IT IS ON IDLE. IT IS EVEN WORSE WHEN AC IS ON. THE PROBLEM I HAVE IS THAT SOMETIME IT HAPPEN SOMETIME IT DOESN'T. I HAVE MADE A COMPLAINT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID EVERYTHING IS NORMAL. I WAS EVEN ADVICE BY THE DEALERSHIP SERVICE DEPT TO USE PREMIUM GAS SPECIFICALLY " CHEVRON GAS STATION". BUT DIDN'T SOLVE ANYTHING. I COULDN'T REALLY PROVE IT IS SHAKING BECAUSE IT IS ON AND OFF. JUST STUMBLE IN TO THIS WEBSITE I WANT TO SHARE MY FRUSTRATION TOO. AT 43000 MILES IT IS THE SAME SHAKING VIBRATING THAT IS HAPPENING. I'VE REPLACED ALL TIRES AT 32000 BECAUSE IT WAS ILLEGAL TO DRIVE ON IT SINCE IT WAS BALD. REPLACE THE FRONT BRAKES AT 40K SO I MIGHT BE HAVING SOME ISSUE WITH THAT TOO. I OWN A 2006 HONDA PILOT WITH 120K MILES ON IT AND THAT SUV DRIVES WAY SMOOTHER THAN MY CIVIC. FOR MY PILOT THE BRAKE LASTED FOR 70K MILES BEFORE REPLACING IT. *TR
