2000 Honda Passport Problems

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2000 HONDA PASSPORT. WHILE THE CONTACT'S WIFE WAS DRIVING 5 MPH OVER A BUMP IN THE ROAD, THE SUSPENSION FRACTURED. SHE LOST CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE AND LATER NOTICED THAT THE FRAME WAS RUSTED. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO HONDA OF FRONTENAC (885 S LINDBERGH BLVD, ST. 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.

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!

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 .

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2000 HONDA PASSPORT. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE CHECK ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION WARNING INDICATORS WERE CONSTANTLY ILLUMINATED. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS AND ATTEMPTING TO TURN RIGHT OR LEFT, IT REQUIRED THE CONTACT TO USE EXTRA EFFORT TO MANEUVER THE VEHICLE. ADDITIONALLY, THERE WAS SMOKE COMING FROM THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE OF THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE TRANSMISSION, CATALYTIC CONVERTER, AND STEERING ASSEMBLY NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURES. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 139,000.

WHILE DRIVING THE CAR LOSES POWER AND STALLS OUT IT WILL DO THIS ON THE HIGHWAY AND LOCAL ROADS AT ALL SPEEDS. *TR

TL*- THE CONTACT SAID THAT HER ENGINE WOULD NOT TURN OVER. SHE HAD THE TRANSMISSION REPLACED WITH A REBUILT TRANSMISSION. AFTER A MONTH THE LIGHTS WOULD COME ON BUT ENGINE WOULDN'T CRANK. A MECHANIC STATED THAT SHE NEEDED A CRANK SHAFT.*AK

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?*JB

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 RECALLED THIS 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. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2000 HONDA PASSPORT. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 10 MPH WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS ENGAGED, IT EXHIBITED RESISTANCE AND FAILED TO ENGAGE.

THE CONSUMER WAS CONCERNED THAT THIS MAY CAUSE A VEHICLE CRASH IF THIS ISSUE CONTINUED. *AK 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.

MY HUSBAND WENT OFF THE FREEWAY AT SPEEDS OVER 70 MPH, HIT A FENCE AND THREE TREES. THE LAST TREE WAS HEAD ON COLLISION, AS WAS THE FENCE PRIOR TO THE TREE. THERE WAS NO AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT ON EITHER THE DRIVER OR PASSENGER SIDES OF THE CAR. THIS IS THE FIRST TIME IN A WRECK, THE CAR IS TOTALLED AND THIS IS A BIG CONCERN!*AK

VEHICLE WAS INVOLVED IN A FRONTAL COLLISION AND NEITHER AIR BAG DEPLOYED. DEALER CONTACTED. FEEL FREE TO PROVIDE ANY FURTHER INFORMATION.*AK

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. *TR

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.

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....

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.*AK

COMPUTER LINKAGE BETWEEN ACCELERATOR AND ENGINE FAILED CAUSING A RAPID DECELERATION OF THE AUTO IN HIGH SPEED TRAFFIC TO ABOUT 10MPH. AT THAT TIME THERE WAS NO ABLITY TO CONTROL THE VEHICLES SPEED.THE RESULT WAS SEVERAL NEAR MISS ACCIDENTS WHILE TRY TO GET THE CAR OFF THE HIGHWAY AT SLOW SPEEDS.*AK
