LUCKILY, I was backing out of a parking space and not on the highway it just came off. I had my daughter with me and when I backed up, the steering wheel popped loudly and I had no power in it. It was turning 360 over and over. The wheels wouldn't move. AAA saw that the steering rod from the dash to the floor broke free. You can move it in any direction 4-5 inches. Of course no one has ever seen this.
I did read of a recall for 2011 Honda pilot spindle nuts (Dec. 2010) that may not have been tightened right, but it is not on the Honda recall list. Has anyone else had this problem? I haven't slept since, thinking of how horrible this could have been.
