1999 Honda Passport Suspension

VEHICLE VIBRATES WHEN ACCELERATING OVER 50MPH REGARDLESS OF ROAD SURFACE. VEHICLE HAS BEEN TO DEALER ON NUMEROUS TIMES. DEALER FINDS NOTHING WRONG WITH IT. *AK

CONSUMER TOOK THE VEHICLE FOR REPAIRS DONE BUT NO PARTS FOR RECALL (00V-058). YH

VEHICLE PULLS TO THE RIGHT BECAUSE THE RIGHT REAR ALIGNMENT DEFECTIVE. YH

RIGHT REAR TOE IS DEFECTIVE AND OUT OF ALIGNMENT SPEC., SERVICED THREE TIMES FOR DEFECT WITH NO IMPROVEMENT, CAUSING SEVERE PULL AND LOSS OF STEERING CONTROL. *MJS

THE VEHICLE HAS A CONSTANT VIBRATION THAT INCREASES WITH SPEED. IT FEELS SIMILAR TO A TIRE BEING OUT OF BALANCE. THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN TO THE DEALERSHIP SEVERAL TIMES. THEY SENT THE VEHICLE TO NTB AND I TOOK IT TO THE FIRESTONE/BRIDGESTONE DEALER. THREE SETS OF NEW TIRES HAVE BEEN ON THE VEHICLE AND TWO SETS OF WHEELS. SO FAR THAT HAS NOT FIXED THE PROBLEM. I AM CONCERNED THAT THE VIBRATION IS A DEFECT IN AN AXLE OR SOME OTHER AREA OF THE VEHICLE AND I AM CONCERNED ABOUT MY SAFETY WHEN DRIVING THE VEHICLE.( DOT NUMBER: Y7MT TIRE SIZE: P245/70R16 )

WHILE DRIVING VEHICLE OVER BUMPS OR ROUGH PATCHES OF THE ROAD AT 35-40MPH, WOULD VIBRATE VIOLENTLY. BEEN TO DEALER & MECHANIC COULD NOT FIND THE CAUSE OF THE VIBRATION. ALSO,DURING WINTER WET SLICK ROADS THIS VEHICLE WOULD BE OUT OF CONTROL.*AK

THE VEHICLE STARTS VIBRATING AND SHIMMEING AT ABOUT 60 MPH. IT FEELS SIMILAR TO A TIRE BEING OUT OF BALANCE OR LIKE THE VEHICLE IS OUT OF ALIGNMENT. THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER HAS INSTALLED NEW WHEELS, NEW TIRES, NEW SUSPENSION BUT THE SHIMMIEING HAS BEEN WORST THAN DAY ONE! THE DEALERSHIP SAYS "SO IT SHIMMIE'S SO WHAT?" THE MANUFACTURER SAYS "ACCORDING TO OUR DEALER, THE CAR IS OK, SO YOU DO NOT HAVE ANY CASE. WE HAVE DONE ALL WE CAN." IT SEEMS TO ME LIKE THE CAR WOULD BE A DANGER TO DRIVE IN HAZARDOUS WINTER CONDITIONS IF IT SHIMMIES THIS BAD. THE CAR IS SO BAD THAT THE DEALERSHIP SALES MANAGER OFFERED ME TO "BUY IT BACK AS A LOW VALUE TRADE-IN CAR AS A FAVOR TO ME." THE SAME DEALERSHIP'S SERVICE DEPARTMENT IS CALLING THIS CAR TO BE IN GOOD CONDITION. THE CAR HAS BEEN WITH DEALERSHIP AND MANUFACTURER FOR ABOUT 7 TIMES SO FAR. THEY BOTH REFUSE TO EVEN TAKE A LOOK AT THE PROBLEM ANY MORE. WHAT CAN I DO NOW FOR THE LEMON? PLEASE HELP.

FRONT END ALIGNMENT PROBLEMS, PULLING TO THE RIGHT, THREE REPAIR ATTEMPTS HOWEVER CONTINUES TO HAVE DIFFICULTY. MJS

STEERING WHEEL AND VEHICLE SHAKES AND SHIMMIES AT 60+MPH. SIX TIMES TO DEALER. TIRES REPLACED. LOAD SPRINGS/POWER STEERING RACK REPLACED ALL WITHOUT CORRECTION OF PROBLEM. DANGEROUS IF BUMP IS HIT AT 65+ UNLESS STEERING WHEEL IS TIGHTLY GRIPPED WITH BOTH HANDS. FIRST 1,000 MILES DID NOT GET UP TO FREEWAY SPEEDS SO PROBLEM NOT REALLY NOTICED UNTIL THAT TIME.
