I HAVE A 2001 HONDA PASSPORT AND THE REAR OF THE FRAME COMPLETELY ROTTED AND THE VEHICLE IS NOW USELESS. I WAS DRIVING TO GET ONTO THE HIGHWAY AND LOST CONTROL OF THE CAR MOMENTARILY SO I PULLED OVER. I THOUGHT IT WAS A TIE ROD AND DROVE APPROXIMATELY 15 TO 20 MILES AN HOUR AND DROPPED MY VEHICLE OFF AT THE GARAGE. I WAS INFORMED THAT THE FRAME ROTTED AN DTHEY WERE SURPRISED MY REAR AXLE WAS STILL ATTACHED. I WAS TOLD THAT IT WAS BASICALLY STAYING ATTACHED BECAUSE OF ABOUT 1 INCH OF GOOD STEEL AND MY GAS TANK. I AM VERY LUCKY THAT NO ONE WAS HURT. I HAVE SEEN A LOT O FTHESE COMPLAINTS ABOUT ISUZU RODEOS AND HONDA PASSPORTS. IS ANYTHING GOING TO BE DONE. THERE IS NOT A SPEC OF RUST ANYWHERE ELSE ON THE VEHICLE!?? *TR

I HAD TAKEN MY 2001 HONDA PASSPORT (ISUZU RODEO) IN TO THE SERVICE STATION FOR AN OIL CHANGE AND INSPECTION STICKER. WHEN THE MECHANIC WAS GETTING READY TO PUT THE VEHICLE ON THE LIFT, HE NOTICED THE PROBLEM WITH THE ROTTED FRAME. THE LEFT REAR SECTION OF FRAME IS ROTTED INVOLVING THE SUSPENSION, TRAIL ARM BRACKET (SUSPENSION LINK), BODY MOUNT BRACKET AND REAR SUSPENSION. HE SAID IT WAS SO BAD THAT HE WOULD NOT EVEN PUT THE VEHICLE ON THE LIFT FOR FEAR THE FRAME WOULD BREAK OFF. A 2 - 3 FOOT SECTION OF THE FRAME NEEDS TO BE REPLACED BUT WE CAN NOT FIND ONE AT ANY SALVAGE YARDS, ALL THE ONES WE HAVE CONTACTED DO HAVE FRAMES FOR THE VEHICLE BUT THEY ALL HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM AS THE ONE I HAVE JUST DESCRIBED. THE VEHICLE HAS NOT YET BEEN REPAIRED AND I AM STUCK MAKING PAYMENTS ON A VEHICLE I CAN NO LONGER DRIVE. *TR

AIR BAGS
I WAS DRIVING MY 1998 HONDA PASSPORT AT A SPEED OF 35 MPH ON A CLEAR DAY, ON A STRAIGHT LEVEL ROAD. THE WEATHER CONDITIONS WERE CLEAR AND THE ROAD CONDITIONS WERE GOOD. THE VEHICLE WAS IN GOOD SHAPE WITH NO PRIOR ACCIDENTS. AT ONE POINT A VEHICLE CUT IN FRONT OF ME AND I RAN INTO THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE. THE HONDA WAS A TOTAL LOSS. THE AIRBAGS FAILED TO DEPLOY! I SUSTAINED SEVERE INJURIES TO MY NECK. IF THE AIRBAGS HAD DEPLOYED I WOULD NOT HAVE SUSTAINED NECK INJURIES. NOTHING WAS DONE TO CORRECT THE AIRBAG DEFICIENCIES AND THERE IS NO MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE TO DETERMINE IF INDEED THERE WAS A DEFICIENCY IN THE AIRBAG SYSTEM. *TR

FRAME RUSTED ON 1998 HONDA PASSPORT, CAUSING NEAR ACCIDENT FOR 2 OCCUPANTS. AREA OF FRAME IS DRIVER'S SIDE HOLDING REAR WHEEL STABILIZER BAR. RUSTED THROUGH AND FELL OFF WHILE DRIVING AT 5 MPH. CAUSED LACK OF CONTROL AND SWAYING OF VEHICLE, OCCURRED VERY SUDDENLY AND WITHOUT WARNING. ENTIRE AREA/PORTION OF FRAME WAS RUSTED THROUGH ON ONE COMPONENT. SEVERAL OTHER PASSPORT OWNERS ARE/HAVE EXPERIENCED THE SAME ISSUE WITH THE EXACT SAME COMPONENT OF PASSPORT VEHICLES. I WAS ABLE TO AVOID A CRASH AND INJURY ONLY DUE TO THE FACT THAT I WAS TRAVELING AT 5 MPH IN A DRIVEWAY LEADING TO A BUSINESS. OTHERWISE A CRASH WOULD HAVE OCCURRED WITH INJURY TO 2 OCCUPANTS. *TR
