MY 2011 HONDA PILOT TOURING HAD TO HAVE ALL 3 ENGINE MOUNTS AND THE TRANSMISSION MOUNT REPLACED. THE WHOLE FRONT END OF THE VEHICLE WOULD SHAKE UNCONTROLLABLY ON ACCELERATION AND ESPECIALLY AT HIGH SPEEDS. I BOUGHT THE VEHICLE BRAND NEW. I DO A LOT OF HIGHWAY DRIVING AND PUT A LOT OF MILES ON MY VEHICLE. CURRENTLY I HAVE 128,000 MILES ON MY VEHICLE. I REALIZE THAT A VEHICLE WITH A HIGH NUMBER OF MILES WILL EXPERIENCE SOME WEAR TEAR, I NEVER THOUGHT I'D HAVE TO REPLACE MOUNTS THAT HOLD MY ENGINE IN PLACE. ALSO, I HAD TO REPLACE BOTH BUSHINGS AS THEY WERE BOTH RIPPED. NEEDLESS TO SAY THIS SUV HAS COST ME A LOT MONEY IN THE LAST FEW WEEKS. EVERYTHING SEEMS TO BE FAILING AT THE SAME TIME. I WILL HAVE TO RECONSIDER MY NEXT HONDA PURCHASE.
