Gasoline Storage Problems of Honda Pilot

Fuel sloshes in fuel tank and physically moves the vehicle when sudden stops occur. Honda corporate says this is a "characteristic" of the vehicle and will, therefore, take no action to correct/replace the tank or vehicle. I'm gravely concerned that this design flaw may cause the vehicle to move forward into on-coming traffic if road surfaces are covered with packed snow and/or ice.

The gas tank had a leak. Enough that fuel was dripping to the ground when the tank was over half full. The leak point was around a seam at the fuel intake where the tank was assembled. Honda replaced the tank but because the car had 40,000 miles on it was out of warranty. Honda applied a goodwill warranty and paid for the parts. We paid almost 300 dollars for labor.
