NHTSA Complaint #11010639 — 2010 HONDA PILOT

HONDA IS FULLY AWARE OF THEIR FAULTY SUSPENSION COMPLIANCE BUSHINGS. FROM NEW CARS TO OLDER CARS THEY ARE CRACKING AND LEAKING FLUID. THIS CARS WAS JUST SOLD TO ME IN FEB OF THIS YEAR AND FROM HONDA DEALERSHIP. THIS CAR CONTAINS MY KIDS MOST OF THE TIME IT CONCERNS ME THAT HONDA IS NOT REPLACING THEM WITH A DIFFERENT PRODUCT THEN THE SAME FAULTY ONES. ITS NOT UNCOMMON FOR THE CONTROL ARM BUSHINGS ON MANY HONDAS/ ACURAS TO EXPIRE QUICKLY. IT IS HOWEVER A BIT DANGEROUS TO DRIVE WITH THEM IF THEY ARE STARTING TO WEAR DOWN OR DRY ROT. THEY HARDEN WHEN THIS HAPPENS AND CAUSE OTHER COMPONENTS ON YOUR SUSPENSION AND SUB-FRAME TO FAIL. THE LATERAL AND VERTICAL SHAKING OF YOUR CAR WILL CAUSE SOMETHING TO GIVE EVENTUALLY. IT'S NOT SOMETHING THAT IS PUTTING MANY CHILDREN WHO RIDE INTHEM AT RISK!
