NHTSA Complaint #11079962 — 2012 HONDA CROSSTOUR

I BEGAN EXPERIENCING A SHAKING STEERING WHEEL DURING ACCELERATION LAST FALL. (APPROXIMATELY 70,000 MILES) AFTER REPLACING ALL 4 TIRES, REPLACING FRONT BRAKES & ROTORS, REPLACING BEARINGS, DOING AN ALIGNMENT AND HAVING MY MECHANIC REBUILD THE FRONT DRIVER'S SIDE AXLE, I FINALLY GAVE UP AND WENT TO THE DEALER. WITHIN ABOUT 2 MINUTES OF DISCUSSING THIS PROBLEM, THE SERVICE MANAGER TOLD ME THAT HE HAD SEEN NUMEROUS PROBLEMS WITH THIS VEHICLE AND TOLD ME THAT HONDA HAD UPGRADED THE AXLE. I HAD TO REPLACE BOTH AXLES BUT NO RECALL OR INFORMATION HAS EVER BEEN POSTED BY HONDA FOR THIS PROBLEM. IF THIS IS, INDEED A COMMON PROBLEM ON THIS VEHICLE, I THINK A RECALL SHOULD BE INITIATED!
