Steering Tie Rod Assembly Problems of Honda Pilot

The contact owns a 2025 Honda Pilot. The contact stated that while her husband was driving 5 mph and making a left turn, the power steering assist failed without warning. The driver attempted to complete the turn; however, excessive force was needed to steer the vehicle while the vehicle was drifting into oncoming traffic. The driver was able to steer the vehicle off to the shoulder of the road, and the vehicle was towed to the dealer. The vehicle was diagnosed with a defective inner tie rod and inner tie rod alignment. There were no recalls or warranties on the vehicle for the failure. The contact was provided with an estimate for the repair. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 19,000.

I changed tire ,bushing stabilizer,wheel balance alignment, changed the tie rod and cv axle but the car still shaking between the speed of 60mph-70mph. . I don't remember when my Honda Pilot 2013 misfired then they fixed it but my timing belt everything was making sound , I spent to my mechanic friend coz the dealer charge me a price of 950$ to do timing belt service.

I just got off the expressway and was making a slow turn into a parking lot when the inner tie rod broke. I did not run over anything or hit anything, and the dealer found no evidence of such. The tie rod broke while going less than 5 mph , and I lost control of the left front wheel. I had to have the car towed, rent a car, and did not pick up the car until the Monday night after the incident. I live 3 hours away from where this occurred, and had to leave the truck. The dealer was very surprised and had never seen this before. It was such an unusual incident that no dealers had the part and it had to be special ordered. Honda agreed to pay for the part only after I called to complain but I still had to pay $467 in labor as well as for the rental and tow. I called Honda directly to see if they wanted the parts to inspect ( I have it in my possession) and investigate but they want me to pay for shipping it back to them or deliver it to a local dealer. The main reason I called their headquarters in the first place was to make them aware of a possible safety issue. I do not feel I should make the effort or expense to send it back to them for them to see if there is a defect, which in my opinion there is. My truck had 48353 miles at the time. The repairing dealer gave me the part after I asked for it. If this would have happened a few minutes earlier I would have been driving 55 mph and probably would have lost control of the vehicle.
