A little over 100K miles in my Honda and the ABS module has gone out. This part is over $2200 from Honda and on backorder. This is a known issue from Honda and yet, no recall. This unit is incredibly expensive and without fixing it, the safety of my family is as risk.
The ABS, brake, and traction control lights come on when the slightest bump in the road is hit. I am being told by the Honda dealership technician that the issue is a $2000 sensor that must be replaced but however is on back order. I am told that this very sensor controls the steering, traction, and brakes. I am told that the brakes can disengage or not engage at any time.
This car has a serious shaking issue when braking. This is well documented and Honda has not released any recalls for this. This car has a well known issue with consuming too much oil. My car consumes way too much oil which also causes issues with the variable cylinder management
I have been noticing that when I brake my vehicle shakes - took it in to have the brakes done and the dealership told me that my brakes looked brand new and wanted to send me on my way. I asked well why is it shaking then and I was told that maybe the roaters needed machining a $207 service. This was after they did not bother to call me to tell me my vehicle was ready I just happened to show up an hour after my scheduled appt time so machining my roaters would have been another hour to 2 hour wait. (not happy) so I left and I am still dealing with the vibration. I also noticed within the past week after having to drive in heavy rainfall that when going above 45 mph I hydroplane badly - to the point where I almost hit a concrete barrier on the highway. The puddle of water was not, in my opinion, large enough to have created such hydroplaning, neither was my speed. Ended up driving my husbands Jeep until the rain subsided because now I'm scared of driving my car in the rain. I don't have documentation for the "repair" because they literally didn't even tag my vehicle. I will be taking it back this weekend considering I am not the only person having this issue apparently.
Vehicle shimmies, shakes, vibrates when braking and pulls to the left. Had 26,000 mile on vehicle. Brought to dealership and they said it could be due to breaking, car washes, and weather. Rosters were resurfaced at my expense. Now vehicle has 38,000 miles on it with the same problem. Dealership says it's my fault. All miles are highway and vehicle is garaged at home and during the day at the office. Did not need to replace roaters on any previously owned SUV's for 75,000 miles.

Leased brand new Pilot LX on March 15, 2014. It appeared to be in perfect working condition. Then, suddenly on 3/30/14 while driving home, it lost about 80 percent of its brakes. To stop it, you must have foot to floor on brakes. If this had been an emergency stop, there could have been an accident. Taking it to dealer on 4/2/14 to see what the problem may be.
