We have experienced annoying vibration since the car was new. It happens betewwn 85 and 105kph. Initially told wheel balance problem but all attempts to rectify have failed. The Honda engineer claimed that it was not too bad and was a characteristic of the car and no more would be done!!! The car has been back to the dealer 5 times and now have wiped their hands of the problem. Some service?

AT FIRST THE VIBRATION WASN'T THAT BAD, HONDA REPLACED THE STRUTS AND BRAKES AT A WONDERFUL COST OF OVER $2,300.
7 TO 8 MONTHS LATER MY BRAKES START TO GRIND. THINKING THE PADS NEED REPLACED, I DID IT MYSELF. THREE OF THE FRONT BRAKE PADS STILL HAD A LOT OF MEAT ON THEM. BUT THE INNER ONE ON THE VIBRATING SIDE WAS TOO THE METAL AND PUT A GROOVE IN MY ROTOR.
WHATS WORSE, I NOTICED HONDA DID NOT TORQUE THE BOTTOM STRUT MOUNT NUT AND BOLT DOWN. AND NOW AFTER THEIR WORK THE VIBRATION IS WAY WORSE. WHO KNOWS WHAT OTHER DAMAGE HAS BEEN CAUSED FROM THIS. AND I SURE DON'T WANT TO TAKE IT TO HONDA TO FIND OUT AND THEN BE CHARGED.
