    After reading the dreaded compliance bushing issue on a few honda pilot owner's forums as well as safercar.gov, i thought about checking my vehicle to see if i have the same problem. Sure enough, the bushings on both sides of the vehicle have leaked. Just like similar experiences from other owners, the front end of the vehicle vibrates excessively during braking.

    Complete loss of power steering while stopped or at low speeds (trying to pull into a parking space) and front end/steering column shaking while breaking at 60 mph. I was told by the service rep at the honda dealership that i lost my power steering because there was a leak from eroded seal, causing power steering fluid to leak into the boots on the underside of the vehicle. For this reason, there was never any…

Took it in for service was advised by dealer that the bushing on a suspension component needs to be replaced as it has cracked.

    At 60 mph, the steering wheel vibrates, as if the anti-lock braking system is engaged, just with a slight tap of the brake pedal. The vibration is at a consistent rate, and does not slow when the vehicle slows. There is no scraping, or any other sound coming from the wheels, and it is easily demonstrated. While driving on the highway, while slowing down slowly, the vibration catches you off guard as you think you…
