The cd player is intermittent. It's not skipping like a normal cd-rom skip, instead we get an error 3 or error 1 on the display. When this occurs during a song the music stops coming out of the speakers but when music does start up again it is at the same point it would be if the song were playing.for example, if a song has just started and the speakers go quiet for 15 seconds, the song continues from that point onward.some disks just stop and jam.this is the third replacement cd player we have received for this vehicle.

We are having a huge problem with the honda corporation. I have taken my2000 honda passport in for many visits at least 6. This has been happening since last year. The vehicle shuts off while you are driving.this week alone i was almost hit three times. I was on my way to worktoday and was turning onto the freeway and was almost slammed into. Ihave been calling telling them this is a huge safety issue.the car has been taken in many times there have been a few things doneor there was nothing found. Every single time we get the car back eitherimmediately or soon thereafter the vehicle starts to stall whiledriving.we spoke with the corporate office they took down the information had usbring the car in and then kept it for a six days. When we got the carback within a short period of time the car began to shut off again.we are in a lease agreement and at the end of the year 2004 we can trytrade it in. I have no problem with that but a car that is going tocause my death is horrible.i called in to showcase honda and spoke to jaime who only wanted us tobring the car back. The problem i have with that is it will be sent backagain with the same life threatening issues. I am at my wits end. Idon't know where i can get help on this matter.dawnn l. Humphrey

The contact owns a 2000 honda passport. The contact stated that the vehicle was included in the recall associated with nhtsa campaign id number 10v436000 (suspension: rear). The vehicle was taken to an authorized dealer where the brackets were repaired under the recall. The contact was informed that the frame, which was connected to the brackets, was severely rusted, corroded, and showed signs of breakage. The dealer would not repair the frame because it was not covered under the recall. The contact also stated that after the recall repair, fuel would leak from the bottom of the fuel tank while refueling. The dealer was notified and the contact was informed that they would send a tow truck to pick the vehicle up. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure, but offered no assistance. The failure mileage was 132,000. The vin was unknown.

After 2-3 hours of driving engine shut down intermittentlyand it was impossibleto get the vehicle restarted until it cooled down.the dealer and an independent shop inspectedthe vehicle butcould not duplicate or correct the problem.they suspected the failure may be related to the fuel system. *scc *nlm

Fuel sending unit malfunctions casuing low/incorrect reading on fuel gauge and engine light warning.

Honda passport 2000:continuous failure of the gas sensor in the gas tank.expensive procedure to fix and i have also been advised by dealer that the repair is costly and not effective.because it causes the obc to "check engine"car always fails state emissions test.i purchased this car used and the used car dealer could not even explain the error at first.the car is made by izuzu and this is a common problem also with the rodeo'sa recall needs to be made as i am sure many cars are failing the emissions test as well as running out of gas, while driving, because the sensor fails.

The sending unit on the fuel gauge of my 2000 honda passport is faulty.i understand that there is a recall on this part for 98-99 passport/rodeo's, but not one for the 2000 model year which has the exact same unit and should be affected by the same recall.

Gas gauge is not reading correctly. Gas tank holds 21.2 gallons, yet when the gauge reads 1/4, it only takes 8 gallons to fill. Do a 360 turn, the gauge goes from an indicated 1/2 full to empty,then low fuel light comes on. As i straighten out the gauge takes about 10 minutes to recover.i find this is a common problem with this class of automobile. Isuzu rodeo, amigo, and other honda passports, 1998 to present. I've been quoted between $500 - $700 to fix. From my research, the fix may last only 30k miles.

The engine and transmission light came on and have been flashing,while i was on the street, then the steering wheel does not turn smoothly and the car produces noise when turning to the left or right or reversing. And while running, it produces smoke

Just read web info on fuel gauge not reading correctly after gas tank is about half full on honda passports. My vehicle's fuel gauge moves significantly on turns and at times check engine light comes when tank is about gas 1/2 full. This just started happening when the vehicle had approx 87k miles on it.when gas tanked is topped off - usually around 8-10 gals - everything starts working fine again.heard honda may have announced a recalledthis for honda passports but up to year model1999. But given the same symptom and just started happening on my year 2000 vehicle ..thinking all years should be included.i have not talked to dealer yet.honda maintains a great reputation and should offer an expanded recall.given the age, the vehicle is like new and otherwise runs fantastic and i have low milage on the vehicle. Would imagine the same parts used in 1999 passports (fuel sending unit/lever) is same in the year 2000.thank you for further research and information to honda passport owners.

I bought a new honda passport 2000 in september, 2000. After three and a half years, the transmission started leaking and the car shook while automatically changing gear. I sent it to a honda dealer for repair, but it still leaked and shook after the repair. I then sent it to another transmission shop. The shop said that the transmission was made by gm, and this type of transmission had a long history of defectiveness. It needed to be overhauled. This happened right after the 3-year warranty just expired. I bought the honda because i didn't like other brand of engine and transmission, but honda put gmc transmission in their car, which turned out to be a defect. Negotiation is in progress with honda manufacture but unlikely to result in compensation or recall.

My 2000 honda passport stalled on me one thursday morning and called american honda to find out if the problem is covered by the warranty. I was instructed by american honda to have the car towed to a nearest dealership to be diagnosed for any mechanical failure and given a case# for this incident. I received a call the following day from the dealership with regards to what the problem was. They told me that it's a broken transmission seal that caused my car to stall and i was given an estimated work order of $385. I followed up with american honda and informed them of the situation down to me renting a replacement vehicle while it's being repaired. I was informed that they are going to evaluate the problem and will reimburse me for the repair if it falls within their "said" guidelines. So i went ahead and paid for the order 2 days later for $333.44and $13.34 of which is the cost of the part and the rest is the dealership's labor cost (ridiculous) not to mention $27.72/day for my car rental for 2 days. Monday came and i received a call from american honda stating that they did a follow up on the repair and they decided that the repair cost were not considered "pre-mature defect" that i do not qualify for a reimbursement from american honda.

Bought new 2000 honda passport (isuzu rodeo) october 2001. July 2002, approximately 11k miles started having problems with vehicle, described to mechanics as clunking,banging, noise & in reverse,vehicle hesitated. (i have concerns documented)reported problem multiple times but told could not duplicate."then,nov 2004,previously conditions worsened & transmission failed at 45k mi. Towed to mike's transmission who installed replacement trans. Week later got vehicle & with in a month,trans light came on & car stalled while driving. Have had to take car in almost every month to get transmission fixed,at least 10x in less than 1 yr. I was taken outside by one mechanic & told i should trade car in b/c passports "all have this problem" & they keep "replacing defective parts" in my vehicle with new defective parts". Couple days later, the trans light came back on. Took vehicle to miller honda & paid for a 2nd opinion & was told trans was shot & fluid in trans was "burnt".called mike's & they agreed to replace the trans again. A few days later,got vehicle back. Last thursday,less than a month after receiving new transmission was driving on freeway in far left lane at 70 mph & lost all power from gas pedal to engine. Cars speeding past me as i uncontrollably lost speed. Maneuvered across 5 lanes & exited. Friday, found out flex plate/fly wheel severed,connects engine to,guess what,transmission!3 mechanics talked to never heard of this happening before,extremely unusual.so unusual that warranty co won't cover b/c they've never heard of it,nor is it listed anywhere in their books. So,to have a vehicle,cost is $1,766. I'm so unbelievably upset i've been sitting at home,with no transportation,crying. Is it unreasonable to expect a new vehicle should last at least 3 years?(bought vehicle 10/01, trans failed 11/04)mechanics can't believe trans failed at 45k mi (had been complaining of problems as early as 11k mi)numerous people who own rodeo/passport have same problem.what's necessary for honda/isuzu recall this vehicle?

Mcdavid honda in houston, tx repaired the car/ no factual evidence of the problem ocurring at 40,000 miles/ based on mcdavid honda, honda wouldn't accept responsibility/ mcdavid honda can not prove with facts that the cluth is not a manufacturer's defect./ mcdavid honda is lying/ i requested old parts back and new parts ordered report and mcdavid honda ask me to tow my car away, they didn't want to fix my vehicle because i was too much trouble./ mcdavid honda was rejecting a $1800 business because they didn't want to provide me with prove of the work/ we strongly believe that there is a manufacturer defect because we have own manual transmission cars for a very long time and have never seen something similar.

My vehicle has been at a honda dealership for 3 weeks. It has damage related to an active recall. The entire back part of the frame is rusted, to the point there is no 'meat' to fix this issue. We are now getting zero response from honda or the dealership, and need assistance in a positive resolution. The honda case # is: 10v436000.this vehicle when towed had tires separating from the body, and is way beyond a patch-fix. I filled up the tank, apparently, the weight caused a separation in the frame.when stationary, a back tire separated from the frame when the tow truck attempted to load the vehicle. The extent of frame damage renders this un-fixable...but now our honda rep and our dealership service manager will not return phone calls.please help!

I am the 2nd owner of this vehicle. It is in great condition everywhere other than the rear frame. I had no idea how bad the rust was under the vehicle in the rear. I bought the suv 1 year ago in august for $2700 with 121,000 miles. I took excellent care of it & on 10/3/13 i was making a right hand turn onto a highway which was a 55 mph speed limit. As i accelerated my front end wobbled back & forth bad and at 25 mph my suv darted to the right shoulder of the road & i slammed on the brakes missing the guard rail. By 1 foot. I had to have it towed home due to my driver side rear tire was pinchedinto my rear bumper. My body shop guy said the rear trailing arm rusted right off the frame & esd most likely not fixable unless i want to spend over $1500 to have the frame cut out & try to find good metal to weld too if there is any. An the other side is bad too. I had no idea this could happen &i had my passport at the honda dealership. 6 months ago & asked the garage boss if there was any recalls the vehicle missef or if there is anything i should. Watch out for & he said no. I could have been killed if i would have been going faster. How does a 13 year old vehicle rust out that fast? honda should be held responsible for selling unsafe vehicles.

Frame on vehicle was deemed "unrepairable" by local honda dealership, due to recall on vehicle. After consulting legal angle found that there is a 10 year window on car makers backing their product. Ironic that the recall came out after 10 years, honda knew of this very, very dangerous situation way before the 10 year window but did nothing. The frame on this car literally was close to completely flying off, and soon that will cause severe injury not only to owners of that model car but also others involved. Honda did nothing to try and buy out owners, they just want the vehicles off the road to eliminate their responsibilities in any lawsuit that may come from this faulty equipment.

I was driving about 25 mph and someone pulled right in front of me requiring me to slam on the brakes.i heard something snap or break in the rear of the car.it was very hard to steer, the car seemed to wiggle and sway.i pulled over as soon as i could, within a half block.i looked for a flat tire, nothing seemed wrongso i tried to drive home.there was a horrible rubber scraping sound from the left rear.i got out again and saw that the tire was wedged against the wheel well.i called a wrecker and had it towed to my mechanic.as soon as he saw it the mechanic called me and said, "your car is totaled, the frame is rotted out."so i had to have the car towed back to my home.my neighbor also owns a 2000 honda passport and he told me that there had been a recall for the frame, suspension for my model and year.i found the recall #10v436000 at http://www.hondaproblems.com/recalls/passport/2000/ i called honda on monday, december 9 to report that i had never received a recall notice and asked if they could help me.i had read about a buyout program.the rep said that the recall was only good for two years and had expired, there was nothing she could do to help me.this is a serious part of the car, had i been on the interstate i could have had a horrific accident.honda knew they had a problem, how can they limit the repair to two years?there were 149,992 vehicles involved in this recall,is there anyone that can help me?

I had to junk my honda passport because the bracket that held the wheel to the frame detached due to corrosion which i was told would not be safe if attempted to repair it. Two yrs later there is a recall for that exact thing. How is it possible that honda claims the could fix this when no one else could and why will they not compensate for my loss. Sorry but an eight yr old car should not just fall apart.

2000 honda passport taken to mechanic for brakes.refused to install brakes because he discovered the frame was rusted through.reported to nhtsa sept. 2009 however it does not appear in the complaint list.

On august 23, 2010 my 17 year old daughter was driving my 2000 honda passport entering interstate 75 in ohio when she heard a loud noise and it felt like the car was on spinning on ice.she thought that it was going to roll over because it went up on 2 wheels, luckily she was able to get it stopped before anything serious happened.at the time she was only going about 30 miles an hour.had she been going the speed limit of 65 miles an hour when this happened i am afraid she would not have been so lucky.there was no warning for i had just driven the car and everything seemed just fine.the car is in good condition except for the frame which is completely rusted out.the rear drivers side stabilizer bar broke away from the frame due to rust.the whole frame is rusted with holes that you can stick your fingers through.this car is now junk.i am very upset at honda for not acknowledging that this is a problem and recalling this vehicle.my daughter could have died. We now have a piece of junk sitting in our driveway.

I was driving my 2000 honda passport in a parking lot when the frame snapped in the back.honda has recalled the bracket but not the frame.they are claiming it's not the manufacturers fault that the frame rotted away due to the salt that is used on the roads in the winter.the frame on my passport is completely rotted with no way of fixing it.

Frame rot. No crash but would have crashed if i wasn't paying attention to certain signs that i should pull over.

We were forced to get rid of our 2000 honda passport. My daughter was driving, slowly on her permit, all of a sudden ...snap>>> something underneath broke and jerked us to the side. We pulled into a walgreens and called my husband. The exact part hi-lighted in jim parsons report was our troubles. We had recently paid this vehicle off and had no intentions of getting another one.because the damage would have cost so much, we opted to get a new (used) auto and start the payments cycle once again. I feel we should be compensated to at least cover the debt incurred, we certainly had no intent to buy another auto at this time. Thank you

I am the original owner of a 2000 honda passport with 85,000 miles. I recently had a pennsylvania state vehicle safety inspection performedand was told that there was so much rust damage to the frame that the vehicle would not pass inspection. I took the honda to the dealership where i purchased it. They were not interesting in working on the vehicle but suggested i call the honda hotline number and referred me to their web site. I spoke with "christine" at 800-999-1009. She informed me there was no recall associated with my vin. She said honda america declined to do anything further about the issue. She also informed me that although it was likely honda had more information regarding this problem she did not have access to it nor would she give me any contact information for anyone who could provide it. The car has been well cared for, never in an accident and never around water. It is 10 years old and normal wear and tear is expectedbutit also seems reasonable to expect that the frame of such a vehicle should be able to stay intact and perform safely over that span of time.

Vehicle frame rusted out at bracket for rear axle stabilizer, causing rear wheel to shift forward into rear wheel well.

I have a honda passport 2000 with a severely rotted frame. It is not in drivable condition due to its rotted frame. I am putting out over 2 grand to replace the frame even though i believe that it is a defect from honda manufacturer. It is definitely not safe to drive on the road because the frame is completely fallen apart. This honda passport model needs to be on recall entirely because there are other honda passport owners that are experiencing the same situation.

The underside frame of my 2000 honda passport is so rusted, a sway bar connected to the axle broke free.i have been told by my mechanic and by a honda dealer that the rust is so bad, there is nothing to attach the sway bar to.the bar attached to the frame (which this sway bar is attached to) was fixed in the recall 1.5 years ago.it is still attached to the frame, so honda will not fix this issue or give me compensation for my car.i believe it is all related and the recall did not work to fix the suspension issues.my honda dealer basically told me i had to deal with corporate and to come pick up the car.i was shocked by this as the car was unsafe to drive and a potential safety hazard.when my wife pressed the service manager, he then said the car should not be driven.as for the recall, my honda dealer wrote down the wrong vin number on my invoice, so they thought the car was a 1999 passport.if you read the recall, there is a difference on how the dealer should handle a 10 year old car versus an 11 year old car.according to honda corporate, this would not actually affect how my car was fixed by the recall.but it gets better.the recall work was subbed out to a 3rd party for a stage 3 repair.no one at corporate or the dealer will tell me if this was authorized by corporate, as someone at the nhtsa told me was proper protocol.and i can't believe that no one at the dealership, when the recall work was done, told me how bad the underside of my car was.could this be because if they didn't do the recall work they don't get paid?there is no conflict of interest here at all.i talked with corporate a week ago and asked them to have the honda corporate district manager for my dealership call me.he hasn't called.honda won't back up the honda name on this broken down isuzu.

I purchased this vehicle on the 5th of july 2013. Took the vehicle home and noticed a badly defective tire on the right rear and that the brakes were having issues which included poor stopping and a vibration in the back. I got down on my hands and knees to look at the tire and then noticed large rotted holes in frame by tires. I then laid on my back and noticed that the entire frame was rotted out from front to back. This is so bad that i can push holes through the frame with just my fingers. I have since gotten online and discovered that there has been a recall issued on this vehicle for a control arm bracket that breaks off of the frame due to rot. This issue has far exceeded that recall and i am wanting to know what would be my best course of action from here? i am now afraid to even move this vehicle out of my drive way due to safety concerns for myself or others around me. Thank you so much for your time on this issue and i look forward to a response from you on this matter....

I took my car to a mechanic last week because i was having to put brake fluid in it. I thought maybe i had a leak. The mechanic called me back and said i wouldn't drive that car anymore. It has excessive corrosion underneath. The frame is broke at least in one spot and the back is about to break into and come up through the floorboard. This is my only vehicle and i have to drive it. I don't know what to do. I just can't understand. I know that i live in a somewhat wintry area, but i am fanatical about keeping my car cleaned. The vehicle is only 12 years old. My husband has a subaru that's almost 20 years old and has 272000 miles on it. Its no where near rusted like mine. I know that there was a recall on 2001-2002 honda passports for this reason but year 2000 wasn't involved in that. I definitely think that it should have been. You would never believe my undercarriage unless you look at it. Please help me to get some kind of help with this issue. I found a forum online and there is a lot more people with this same problem.

Louis, mo 63131, (314) 994-1400), but was not diagnosed or repaired. The vehicle was towed to manguest honda (5935 s lindbergh blvd, st louis, mo 63123, 314-649-1200) where it was diagnosed that the frame needed to be replaced due to excessive rust. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was contacted and did not assist. The failure mileage was 140,000.

The contact owns a 2000 honda passport. The contact stated that he received a recall in regards to nhtsa campaign id number 10v436000 (suspension:rear). The contact had the repairs done approximately one year ago. The contact stated that the repair done to one side of the suspension did not make the vehicle any safer and believed that it should have been installed on both sides. The manufacturer was contacted and they ensured him that the vehicle was done according to the safety standards and regulations. The failure mileage was unknown. The current mileage was approximately 147,000. The vin was unavailable.

My car is involved in the recall 10v436000 buy back program but the dealers as well as honda itself will not follow the nhtsa guide lines they are making excuses and lying to me about responsibility this car has 111,000 miles on it and should last a very long time but the frame is completely rusted and cannot be driven and the electrical problems are all over because of the frame movement . I believe that there are other recalls on this vehicle but honda refuses to take responsibility for anything .

As driving my passport i notice swaying feeling all over the road and it is very loud when ever you hit the slightest bump. Driving at a very low speed is the only way to drive. The frame is rusted bad. It is full of holes and missing peices. Currently at honda dealer waiting for the case manager to contact me as it is not safe to drive according to honda america. So far offered no rental or nothing just no car.

I am the 2nd owner of this vehicle. It is in great condition everywhere other than the rear frame. I had no idea how bad the rust was under the vehicle in the rear. I bought the suv 1 year ago in august for $2700 with 121,000 miles. I took excellent care of it & on 10/3/13 i was making a right hand turn onto a highway which was a 55 mph speed limit. As i accelerated my front end wobbled back & forth bad and at 25 mph my suv darted to the right shoulder of the road & i slammed on the brakes missing the guard rail. By 1 foot. I had to have it towed home due to my driver side rear tire was pinchedinto my rear bumper. My body shop guy said the rear trailing arm rusted right off the frame & esd most likely not fixable unless i want to spend over $1500 to have the frame cut out & try to find good metal to weld too if there is any. An the other side is bad too. I had no idea this could happen &i had my passport at the honda dealership. 6 months ago & asked the garage boss if there was any recalls the vehicle missef or if there is anything i should. Watch out for & he said no. I could have been killed if i would have been going faster. How does a 13 year old vehicle rust out that fast? honda should be held responsible for selling unsafe vehicles.

The contact owns a 2000 honda passport. The contact stated that the vehicle was repaired under nhtsa campaign id number 10v436000 (suspension:rear). Thirteen months later while driving approximately 40 mph, the vehicle started to swerve abnormally. The contact exited the vehicle and discovered that the driver side trailing arm was fractured. The vehicle was slowly driven to an independent mechanic where they advised him that the failure was not related to the prior recall repair. The driver side trailing arm was replaced. The manufacturer was contacted and they offered no assistance. The failure mileage was approximately 119,550.

Nhtsa recall 10v436000 performed in early 2011. "performed link bracket inspection and stage 1 repair op: 4195a2" now, 4 years later. The frame is rusted and crumbled/broken behind the rear differential.picture of this specific passport uploaded to wikipedia honda passport page, titled "frame rust (2000 passport)" .

I was driving about 25 mph and someone pulled right in front of me requiring me to slam on the brakes.i heard something snap or break in the rear of the car.it was very hard to steer, the car seemed to wiggle and sway.i pulled over as soon as i could, within a half block.i looked for a flat tire, nothing seemed wrongso i tried to drive home.there was a horrible rubber scraping sound from the left rear.i got out again and saw that the tire was wedged against the wheel well.i called a wrecker and had it towed to my mechanic.as soon as he saw it the mechanic called me and said, "your car is totaled, the frame is rotted out."so i had to have the car towed back to my home.my neighbor also owns a 2000 honda passport and he told me that there had been a recall for the frame, suspension for my model and year.i found the recall #10v436000 at http://www.hondaproblems.com/recalls/passport/2000/ i called honda on monday, december 9 to report that i had never received a recall notice and asked if they could help me.i had read about a buyout program.the rep said that the recall was only good for two years and had expired, there was nothing she could do to help me.this is a serious part of the car, had i been on the interstate i could have had a horrific accident.honda knew they had a problem, how can they limit the repair to two years?there were 149,992 vehicles involved in this recall,is there anyone that can help me?

I was told about a frame recall on my 2000 passport, i called honda directly and asked them to endsend me 49.00 + tx to have my car looked at. I paid, they tell me my car does fall under the recall but i would have to pay for repairs, and they also tell me that my car is unsafe to drive. Come to find out the person that owned my vehicle was told back in feb 2012 that the frame was bad, so they turned around and sold the car, it went to auction and not disclosed to the person i bought the car from in may 2012. I took the car to have it aligned the dealership would not align the car because the frame in the front was rusted and has holes in it, and now we have discovered that the rear frame was filled with grape foam and covered over with undercoating that covered up the holes in the frame. What do i do, honda will not back this vehicle or honor the recall. I do not have alot of money and can not afford to just purchase another vehicle to get back and forth to work. I work for a dealership in ithaca and when toyota had their frame recalls, people were put into rental cars, and the vehicles were fixed or bought back. Honda does not seem to care!!!!! what do i do?

When coming to a stopfront feels like it is skipping across the road, and also pullling to one side.dealer has been contacted.

This vehicle is out of alignment it had the tires rotated after 5 days and they are again cupped.they tried to fix the alignment but i was told that they could not fix it without a chamfer shim kit whcih is not acceptable to me. This means there is front end damage per the mechanics i spoke with. The hood had spots which were to be buffed out but the dealer could not buff them out and painted it instead without my approval. I now do not have a factory paint job. The 2 mirrors had spots which meant that the mirrors neaded to be replaced. Also the door strips and the interior door pieces had to also be replaced. The last straw was the truck leasks at the back when it was washed by me. I have no faith in the vehicle or the dealer to resolve these problems.

The contact owns a 2000 honda passport. The contact stated that while driving 35 mph, the lower link bracket broke away from the frame, causing him to lose control of the vehicle.

There is a recall out for a 2000 honda passport campaign# 10v436000. The mechanics we took it to originally said that what was described under the consequences of this recall is what was wrong with our vehicle so they couldn't work on it. That we had to take it to a honda dealership. When we did this they said our vin number was not included in this recall even though that is the exact problem we are experiencing. That is excessive corrosion may result in the left or right rear suspension lower link bracket becoming detached from the frame, which can affect vehicle handling and potentially cause a crash. My son told us about the car being all over the road and the original mechanics that looked at the car said this was the problem. Therefore i believe our 2000 honda passport should be included in this recall. At the moment the honda dealership has not repaired the vehicle. They said they would need to take it over to the body shop to get an estimate. There was no accident involved, my son was just driving the car for his job as a delivery driver of a sub shop.

Consumerreceived recall motice on rear axle damper lower mounting nuts in may 2001, and had recall repairs done. Vehicle hascurrently been experiencing vibration when driving over 50 mph. When applying brakes there isa thump in back of vehicle. Took vehicle to dealer about problem, and dealer stated will check to see what could be done.

I purchased this vehicle on the 5th of july 2013. Took the vehicle home and noticed a badly defective tire on the right rear and that the brakes were having issues which included poor stopping and a vibration in the back. I got down on my hands and knees to look at the tire and then noticed large rotted holes in frame by tires. I then laid on my back and noticed that the entire frame was rotted out from front to back. This is so bad that i can push holes through the frame with just my fingers. I have since gotten online and discovered that there has been a recall issued on this vehicle for a control arm bracket that breaks off of the frame due to rot. This issue has far exceeded that recall and i am wanting to know what would be my best course of action from here? i am now afraid to even move this vehicle out of my drive way due to safety concerns for myself or others around me.

My tires "squill" constantly upon any type of turn at a very low speed or turn.the squill sounds like i am turning fast at 80mph when in fact it is just a normal turn.i have taken my passport to honda, who says everything is up to "specifications" and the squill is from the heat of the pavement.i then took it to firestone, who says the noise is "very abnormal" and has offered to replace the tires for half price (price less 1/2 of usage).honda (downey, ca) stated they had experienced the same thing with 3 other passports and feel this is very normal.i have been driving for 30 years and have never experienced anything like this.my tires squill at every slight turn there is.

While driving, firestone dueler 684 tire p245/70r16 experienced tread separation from the rear passenger side, faulty tire also caused loud noise, firestone replaced tire for $20.

8/12/2004 2000 honda sold at apple honda as a clean car no hits 2 days latter i found out that the car was hit there is over $4000 in repairs need to make the car desirable and or close to what i paid for it i am told they can do nothing about it by american honda this car should not have been sold for over $140000 .

Vehicle started making a grinding noise when turning or stopping.i was told when i brought it in for service i needed the rear differential replaced.i had the option of choosing a used part for $700 rather than a new one for $4000.since i am short on cash, i opted for the cheaper.so no problem with that but now i need to have my manifold gaskets replaced.

When applying brakes on dry road surface abs would intermittently engage itself from 10-0 mph and cause the brakes to momentary lock up.the vehicle has been to the dealer on two separate occasions and they were unable to duplicate the problem.the consumer was concerned that this may cause a vehicle crash if this issue continued.when decreasing speed to 15 mph or lower the brake pedal would begin to push back and tremble.there would also be a spring like noise which would sound like the abs when engaged in winter driving conditions.the rear wipers were inoperative.also when the defrost was on, the vehicle idle would go up extremely high, then drop, stall out and sometimes the abs would activate when driving conditions were normal. *sc

The contact owns a 2000 honda passport. The contact released his foot from the accelerator pedal she noticed that the vehicle maintained at its speed until the brakes were applied. The vehicle has not been diagnosed by the dealer and there were no prior warnings. The current and failure mileages were 85000.

Vehicle started to accelerate while applying brakes to stop. Forced vehicle to rear end another vehicle. Dealer and manufaturer have been notified. Feel free to provide any further information.

When waiting at a stop vehicle's engine would start to surgeand vehicle would jerk forward, even with foot on brakes. Taken to dealership twice for problem. Mechanic claimed it was repaired, but had to take it back to be corrected. Been back for a 3rd timeand still not repaired.

Honda corporation contacted/honda unwilling to accept fault. Spoke with ellen at 1-800-999-1009. Issued claim #n012001-11-2601219 on 11-16-2001. Ross at honda tech line stated that this condition could not happen due to rundundant sensors in the acceleration pedal. On both occations the vehicle acclerated on own. On the first occurance the brake pedal had to be pressed and the vehicle taken out of gear to avoid rear end collsion while in school zone with my children onboard. On second occurrence the driver had foot completely off of the acceleration pedal and vehicle continued to accelerate from 20 to 30 mph. Accelerator pedal had to be "stomped" to stop uncontrolled accelleration. Lynwood honda would not replace acceleration sensors (5) for fear of admitting that there could be a problem . Spoke with the owner eric neilso, advisor mike popkey, service advisor peter callahan at lynwood honda. Honda automotive corporation stated, "how do we know that you didn't have your foot on the accelerator pedal. This appears to only be happening to your vehicle, not to others". Honda states that since it is only happening to my vehicle then there really isn't a serious issue. I have contacted the attourney general for washington state and will be submitting additional letters to honda automotive corporation.this vehicle has been in the service department at lynwood honda on numerous occations for faulty equipment.

I had to junk my honda passport because the bracket that held the wheel to the frame detached due to corrosion which i was told would not be safe if attempted to repair it. Two yrs later there is a recall for that exact thing. How is it possible that honda claims the could fix this when no one else could and why will they not compensate for my loss. Sorry but an eight yr old car should not just fall apart.
