Passport 6-cyl

  • 119,512 miles
I purchased this vehicle on the 5th of July 2013. Took the vehicle home and noticed a badly defective tire on the right rear and that the brakes were having issues which included poor stopping and a vibration in the back. I got down on my hands and knees to look at the tire and then noticed large rotted holes in frame by tires. I then laid on my back and noticed that the entire frame was rotted out from front to back. This is so bad that I can push holes through the frame with just my fingers. I have since gotten online and discovered that there has been a recall issued on this vehicle for a control arm bracket that breaks off of the frame due to rot. This issue has far exceeded that recall and I am wanting to know what would be my best course of action from here? I am now afraid to even move this vehicle out of my drive way due to safety concerns for myself or others around me. Thank you so much for your time on this issue and I look forward to a response from you on this matter....

Passport

My tires "squill" constantly upon any type of turn at a very low speed or turn. The squill sounds like I am turning fast at 80mph when in fact it is just a normal turn. I have taken my Passport to Honda, who says everything is up to "specifications" and the squill is from the heat of the pavement. I then took it to Firestone, who says the noise is "very abnormal" and has offered to replace the tires for half price (price less 1/2 of usage). Honda (downey, ca) stated they had experienced the same thing with 3 other Passports and feel this is very normal. I have been driving for 30 years and have never experienced anything like this. My tires squill at every slight turn there is.
