Consumer Description

I DROVE OVER A DIP IN THE ROAD THEN HEARD A NOISE FROM THE REAR OF PILOT I THOUGHT IT WAS THE MUFFLER AND IT THE MUFFLER SEAMED A BIT LOUDER THEN NORMAL BUT AFTER LOOKING AT IT I DID NOT SEE ANYTHING DIFF. BUT A COUPLE OF DAYS LATER AFTER DRIVING SOME FRIENDS TO THE AIRPORT AND EXITING I HEARD A METAL SOUNDING NOISE SO AFTER PULLING IN THE DRIVEWAY AND INSPECTING THE AREA OF THE EXHAUST I NOTICED THE DRIVERS SIDE OF THE REAR FRAME/ SUSPENSION WAS LOWER THEN THE RIGHT SIDE. AND LOOKING CLOSER I SAW A BOLT OR WHATEVER ITS CALLED THAT HOLDS THE FRAME CRADLE RUSTED OFF AND SEPARATED FROM THE MAIN FRAME ALSO THE RIGHT SIDE LOOKS VERY RUSTED AND CONCERNED IT COULD SEPARATE AS WELL AND THE WHOLE REAR FRAME SUSPENSION COULD DROP. I NOW AM GOING TO HAVE IT TOWED TO A FRAME SHOP IT IS RISKY TO DRIVE IT IN THE CURRENT CONDITION. THIS IS VERY BAD. WHAT IF WHEN I WAS DRIVING TO THE AIRPORT WITH PASSENGERS IT COLLAPSED ON THE HIGHWAY PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS
