What owners wrote
I was driving in the rain at about 30 miles and hour towards a red light. I began to slow down with the brakes, but the car would not stop and skidded right through the red light. I also tried steering the car to the right, but the car would not steer right and kept skidding through the red light until it slightly hit the median and stopped. Luckily, no oncoming cars were coming or my car would have went right into them. The tires claim to be "all weather tires" which are bridgestone dueler tires, 245/60r18.
Steering wheel is not straight since I bought the car. I took the SUV several times and they said that is a defect on the chassis or something like that . They said that honda's engineer are working on this issue. Now is more than a year and my SUV has same problem still.
