What owners wrote
Tl* the contact owned a 2011 honda pilot. The contact stated that while approaching at a stop light she came to a complete stop behind another vehicle as the vehicle jerked without warning. As a result, the contact crashed into the vehicle in front. The air bags did not deploy. The driver sustained injuries to the right arm. The other vehicle passenger spare tire on the jeep detached from the other vehicle and damaged the engine. A police report was made.
Noticed the cars steering wheel shakes when brake is applied at approximately 65-70 miles per hour which is very scary. Brought the car to the dealership and was told the rotors need to be re-surface. I ask why because it's a brand new car with very low mileage and response was it could be the problem. Brought the car home 6/9/12 afternoon. Drove it the next day and steering wheel shaking still present.
