3 Frame And Members problem of the 2005 Honda Pilot

Failure Date: 01/30/2009

I had my 2005 Honda Pilot in the shop for 60,000 mile check-up. I was told that the motor mounts on the right front and the rear left. I think this is entirely too few miles for the motor mounts to begin to fail.

Failure Date: 11/11/2008

At 100,000 miles I was informed by the Honda dealership that 2 of 3 motor mounts were cracked and should be replaced on my 2003 Pilot. This will cost me approx $400. Seems that many Honda Pilot owners are having this same problem. I have never had this problem with any other "older" car.
