I purchased a brand new 2012 Honda Pilot, at 3,000 miles it started vibrating when breaking slightly at first, took it to the dealer and was told they didn't feel anything. The vibration increased over the following two weeks driving to Florida, it was so bad, I really got nervous. Upon my return, I went back to the dealer, they shaved my rotors, saying they were uneven, this was a new car, yet they would not give me new ones. Six months later, I was back with the same problem, now they replaced the rotors out of pocket. Seven months after that, back for the same problem, they didn't find the problem.
To make a long story short, in the past 5 years, the car has gone through four sets of rotors, and no one can tell me why Honda rotors warp, or what is it about the car that ruins the rotors. During these past five years, I'm at the mechanic at least once every two months with the same problem, I called and complained to the manufacturer...and of course, they do nothing. This is only one of the many problems I have had with this car. I owned a total of 5 Hondas, however, I will NEVER buy one again. They use to be a quality car, now they are an expensive garbage.
