problem #1

Mar 152006

Pilot 6-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 1,000 miles
Fuel sloshes in fuel tank and physically moves the vehicle when sudden stops occur. Honda corporate says this is a "characteristic" of the vehicle and will, therefore, take no action to correct/replace the tank or vehicle. I'm gravely concerned that this design flaw may cause the vehicle to move forward into on-coming traffic if road surfaces are covered with packed snow and/or ice.
