problem #1

Pilot 6-cyl

I am a 46 year-old disabled man living in riverview, Florida. I am a college-educated business owner. On July 30th I was driving my 2005 Honda Pilot with my 11 year-old son as a passenger and hydroplaned on an on-ramp of I-75 near brandon, Florida during a heavy rain. I did not strike anything. I simply slid sideways in a grassy area and then drove off. During the slide, the driver's door flung open with great force and for no reason. I was almost ejected. This caused great damage to the door resulting in many thousands in damage as determined by an estimate performed by regal Honda of lakeland, Florida. I also injured my back. As Honda has refused any responsibility for damage to the door, I want to warn other consumers of the likelihood of the door of a Honda Pilot opening unexpectedly.
