Consumer Description

I HAVE TAKEN MY TRUCK IN SEVERAL TIMES DUE TO THE SEVERE HOOD SHAKING WHEN PASSING LARGE TRUCKS ON TWO LANE ROADS AND ON WINDY DAYS. I HAVE HAD TO STOP AND VERIFY THAT THE HOOD WAS CLOSED DUE TO THE HOOD LIFTING ON EACH SIDE AND FEAR THAT THE HOOD WAS GOING TO FLY OFF AND KILL ME AND MY FAMILY. ON NON WINDY DAYS, THE TRUCK HAS NO PROBLEMS BUT JUST LET THE WIND KICK UP AND I FEAR FOR MY LIFE. HAS CALLED HONDA CUSTOMER SERVICE AND NO RESULTS AND THE DEALER STATES DUE TO NO RECALL, REPAIRS CAN NOT BE MADE. I WENT ON THE INTERNET AND THERE ARE MANY COMPLAINTS FOR THE HONDA RIDGELINE AND PILOT , WHICH IS THE SAME HOOD.
