Suspension Noise Problems of Honda Passport

I was driving about 25 mph and someone pulled right in front of me requiring me to slam on the brakes. I heard something snap or break in the rear of the car. It was very hard to steer, the car seemed to wiggle and sway. I pulled over as soon as I could, within a half block. I looked for a flat tire, nothing seemed wrong so I tried to drive home. There was a horrible rubber scraping sound from the left rear. I got out again and saw that the tire was wedged against the wheel well. I called a wrecker and had it towed to my mechanic. As soon as he saw it the mechanic called me and said, "your car is totaled, the frame is rotted out. " so I had to have the car towed back to my home. My neighbor also owns a 2000 Honda Passport and he told me that there had been a recall for the frame, suspension for my model and year. . Read more...

I was driving my 2001 Honda Passport when it started jerking to one side after letting off the gas,but only slightly,like wind had hit the car all of a sudden. This went on for a couple days,and when I was going around a turn,I heard a loud noise,like something breaking and grinding,and the car started to shimmy all over the road. When I had it looked at,I was told its unfixable because there is frame rot where the rear suspension lower link completely rotted off the frame and the a-arm also completely rotted off. There are swiss-cheese like holes all through the frame. It is now undriveable. According to my research this is a known issue, and a possible recall. I very strongly agree that there should be a recall or class action lawsuit. I was very luck y that we were only going about 10 mph when it happened,or there could have been a serious crash. This is obviously a manufacturer error.

Original problem was fuel sensor, followed by cylinders being replaced, unresolved whining noise, recall on rear suspension, and now recall on head impact protection. Car has constantly been in shop since purchase, and we have serious concerns about the overall safety and durability of this model. Local dealer has been extremely helpful in trying to resolve problems, but overall quality and safety issues have us seeking answers from you as to what steps we can take to have vehicle replaced by manufacturer.
