2004 HONDA PILOT Engine And Engine Cooling Problems

I bought this 2004 Honda Pilot new in 2004 in Louisville. In 2018 I drove to Florida without incident. While here in Florida I have had a problem with oil leaking. Than the compressor for the air went out and I took it straight to the dealer here. They told me it was not worth fixing. Since then I have had 2 mechanics look underneath the car and said it was so rusted that the frame was dangerous and they could not risk fixing it. I have checked with other Honda owners only to find out this is a problem with numerous Honda years and no one fix this problems because of liability . I have photos of the rusted out rear-end and the frame is not attached. You can find owners trying to weld the rear-end back on. No one will repair my compressor because of the rust and...

MY 2004 HONDA PILOT HAS A SHUDDER AT 30 MPH. IT FEELS AS THOUGH YOU ARE DRIVING OVER THE RUMBLE STRIPS. I AM STARTING TO EXPERIENCE POOR SHIFTS AT OTHER SPEEDS NOW AS WELL. I UNDERSTAND THAT THE PROBLEM IS MOST LIKELY THE RESULT OF A FAULTY TORQUE CONVERTER. REPAIRS INCLUDE REPLACING THE TORQUE CONVERTER AND THE TRANSMISSION AS WELL AS UPDATING THE PCM. HONDA RECALLED OVER A MILLION 2003/2004 PILOTS BUT MY VIN IS JUST PASSED THE LAST VIN RECALLED. HOWEVER, THERE ARE MANY 2005 PILOT OWNERS EXPERIENCING THE EXACT SAME FAILURE. ACURA ALSO ISSUED A SERVICE BULLETIN THAT REPAIRS THE FAULTY COMPONENTS FOR ALL 2003 AND 2004 MDX OWNERS (INSIDE AND OUTSIDE OF WARRANTY). HONDA SHOULD TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE FAILED TRANSMISSIONS IN THE LATER 2004 PILOTS AND 2005 YEARS AS WELL. *TR

ON THE ABOVE DATE WHILE ON A LOCAL INTERSTATE MY CAR FAILED TO RESPOND TO ACCELERATION. INSTEAD THE ENGINE REVVED AND THEN BEGAN CLUNKING AND MAKING HORRIBLE NOISES. I DRIFTED TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AS I HAD NO CONTROL OF THE MOTOR. I HAD THE CAR TOWED TO MY DEALERSHIP. THEY SAID THE WAS A "CATASRTOPHIC FAILURE" OF MY TRANSMISSION. I HAD HAD NO WARNING OF ANY KIND. I HAVE ALWAYS HAD ALL MY WARRANTY WORK DONE IN A TIMELY FASHION INCLUDING ALL TRANSMISSION WORK. MY DEALER ESTIMATED A REPAIR JOB COSTING $4,400. I GOT 2 OTHER ESTIMATES INCLUDING ONE FROM TRUSTED CAR MECHANIC WHO TOLD ME HE RECOMMENDED A JASPER TRANSMISSION (TOTAL REBUILD) AND IT INCLUDED A "WORK-AROUND" FOR MY MAKE, MODEL, AND YEAR CAR'S TRANSMISSION "PROBLEM"

HONDA DEALER INDICATED DURING ROUTINE OIL CHANGE THAT FRONT ENGINE MOUNT IS CRACKED AND NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. THE ENGINE MOUNT IS ONE OF THE VERY IMPORTANT PARTS THAT SECURE THE ENGINE AND HONDA MUST TAKE ACTION TO ENSURE THAT THE PART IS SAFE AND NOT CREAK AND GET WEAK. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY HAZARD AND HONDA SHOULD MAKE AN EFFORT TO INVESTIGATE AND RECALL AND REPLACE THE ENGINE MOUNT IN ALL THOSE VEHICLES WHICH ARE AFFECTED. *TR
