This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
The contact owns a 1995 Honda Passport. The mechanic found a pen hole crack in the radiator and made the repair. When the contact activated the air conditioner, all of the antifreeze seeped through the pen hole crack and onto the engine. Currently, the engine is vibrating and shaking and the vehicle is burning fuel. The current and failure mileages were 186,667. Updated 09/18/07
Engine clicking sound has been increasing; otherwise, my 1995 Honda Passport dx runs well. Two mechanics have suggested the lifter bars are the problem. Others have reported this on other Passports of the same year. These lifters seem to fail in other Passports (www.mycarstats.com/console.asp?TB=R&mmmakes=Honda&mmmodels=Passport&year=1995#reportconsole); repair costs nearly as much as the car is worth! the use of faulty parts that have limited life expectancy was not communicated to consumers.
From my understanding the premature failure of the lifters is quite extensive throughout the us. Why hasn't anything been done about this" shouldn't the manufacturer have to cover the cost of this repair" it set me back $4,100.
Vehicle has experienced a 1 to 1&1/2 quars oil loss for every 1K miles driven since purchased. Honda and Isuzu have been contacted and stated this as normal usage.
