general problems of the 1999 Honda Passport

My frame was rusted throughout at 130k miles the car's rear trail arm mount on the frame detached and almost caused me to run into on by traffic numerous times at 25 mph. Only once I stopped to pick up my sons from school the car's rear trail arm detached completely from the frame, I had deemed it undrivable and called for someone to come by and tow it back home. On my own further inspection, I noticed an absurd amount of rust in the rear left side, and holes in the frame. As well as I said the rear trail arm detached from the frame.

The drivers side trailing arm bracket broke off of the frame due to extreme rust as I was driving.

The rear trailing arm has broken away from severe frame rust. There was a recall for this exact problem in 2010 but it only recalled cars from the northeastern states. This car was not recalled even though it is and has been in alaska. I believe the environmental conditions here are just as severe as the northeastern states and the recall should extend here also.

Vehicle frame rusted totally through. Has only 67000 miles and rest of vehicle is in excellent condition. Frame rust issues need to be addressed by Honda before serious injuries are involved.

My local las vegas Honda dealership inspected my vehicle for a recall related the forward mounting point bracket for the left or right rear suspension lower link may experience excessive corrosion. The Honda dealership replaced no parts, and simply treated the area with an anti-corrosive compound. Three weeks later, my auto mechanic told me the vehicle is unsafe for driving due to the frame having rotted away entirely in places. He was able to poke holes in the remaining frame with his finger because the steel was rusted through so badly. My mechanic indicated that I should have the vehicle towed to the junkyard immediately. However, the engine, drive train, interior, and body are all in good or excellent condition. This is clearly defective and/or inferior the frame materials used by Honda. My dealership sent me on the highway with a clearly unsafe vehicle!.

There was a recall on the corrosion of the lower trailing link frame brackets. The recall was done on 9/13/2011. We took the SUV to our mechanic to have new tires installed and he informed us that the bracket that holds the spring was gone and the other one was going due to corrosion. The Honda dealer that did the recall never informed us of this problem even though our mechanic said they should have spotted it. . The driver side spring in the back is resting on the body and could have resulted in a accident if it moved. I have talked to the Honda CO. Awaiting results.

Noticed that fuel gauge is not working properly because it went empty even though I have a tank full of gas. I did some internet research and found out that this is related to a defective 'fuel sending unit'. It affects Honda Passports and isuzu rodeo vehicles . My SUV Honda Passport fuel gauge is not working due to bad float chamber on the pump component has manufacturing defects. My fuel gauge has started fluctuating wildly. The most common thing though, is that it reads out of gas shortly after a fill up. This is the same model as an isuzu rodeo and the problems are duplicated there. I want to make sure a recall happens and that it covers the Hondas as well.

While driving at any low speed and turning could feel vibration on floor of vehicle, just as technical service bulletin indicated.

Vehicle vibrates when accelerating over 50mph regardless of road surface. Vehicle has been to dealer on numerous times. Dealer finds nothing wrong with it.

Right rear toe is defective and out of alignment spec. , serviced three times for defect with no improvement, causing severe pull and loss of steering control.

I am seeing problem with the truck sliding sideways on slippery roads when making turns. This happen more often when making left turns. The whole vehicle tends to move sideways and this has already caused one accident. I have taken it to the dealer but they haven't been able to find the cause.

The vehicle starts vibrating and shimmeing at about 60 mph. It feels similar to a tire being out of balance or like the vehicle is out of alignment. The dealer and manufacturer has installed new wheels, new tires, new suspension but the shimmieing has been worst than day one! the dealership says "so it shimmie's so what?" the manufacturer says "according to our dealer, the car is ok, so you do not have any case. We have done all we can. " it seems to me like the car would be a danger to drive in hazardous winter conditions if it shimmies this bad. The car is so bad that the dealership sales manager offered me to "buy it back as a low value trade-in car as a favor to me. " the same dealership's service department is calling this car to be in good condition. The car has been with dealership and manufacturer for about 7 times so far. They both refuse to even take a look at the problem any more. What can I do now for the lemon? please help.

The vehicle has a constant vibration that increases with speed. It feels similar to a tire being out of balance. The vehicle has been to the dealership several times. They sent the vehicle to ntb and I took it to the firestone/bridgestone dealer. Three sets of new tires have been on the vehicle and two sets of wheels. So far that has not fixed the problem. I am concerned that the vibration is a defect in an axle or some other area of the vehicle and I am concerned about my safety when driving the vehicle. ( dot number: y7mt tire size: p245/70r16 ).

Vehicle wandered across the road when traveling 60 or more mph. Vehicle been in dealer shop on three occasions, and problem cannot be corrected. Please feel free to provide any further details.

While driving vehicle over bumps or rough patches of the road at 35-40mph, would vibrate violently. Been to dealer & mechanic could not find the cause of the vibration. Also,during winter wet slick roads this vehicle would be out of control.
