Because I had to swerve off road my suspension and power steering are messed up because of pot holes,Just so I wouldn’t hit and impact the passenger side of me my car where airbag is bad and nothing would’ve happened to us, not that it was our fault the driver was driving almost right into us!I blame Honda for this disaster would could have been very bad! Of course the other driver drove away like nothing happened! So now I am stuck at home not able to go to work and bring my daughter to doctors appointments and invade of in emergency my vehicle is not safe enough to get us anywhere! I am asking god to bless us in this case and count all the blessings he has given us! I don’t have a lot of money to pay for repairs and this is the only car I’ve ever purchased and owned.

2003 HONDA PILOT- Lore City, OH
Both rear axel mounts rusted away from the subframe while being driven by my teenage driver. This caused the tires to lean inward and caused mounts to rest on the muffler system. The vehicle is available for inspection, but has not been inspected since it is not mobile or safe to drive. The safety of my child and others were at risk, as this failure could have caused an accident. There were not warning lamps or messages, but rust was noticeable underneath the vehicle.
