What owners wrote
Brand new 2005 honda pilot exl with res has a vibration between 70 MPH and 80 MPH. Honda will not fix this because they claim they can't drive over 65 MPH and therefore can't prove the problem exists. I've had honda balance the tires twice and paid to have a goodyear deal balance them. The problem still exists.
