2001 HONDA PASSPORT IS UNDER RECALL DUE TO THE SUSPENSION BRACKET RUSTING OFF THE FRAME OF THE VEHICLE. MOST VEHICLES ARE BEING DEEMED UNREPAIRABLE DUE TO THE CONDITION OF THE FRAME. HONDA HAS BEEN DOING BUYBACKS QUIETLY ON VEHICLES, SOME FOR DECENT OFFERS AND SOME FOR RIDICULOUSLY LOW OFFERS. HONDA NEEDS TO RECALL ALL 1998-2002 PASSPORTS IN SNOW STATES WITH THE CONDITION OF THE FRAME. FRAMES ARE SO RUSTY THAT THERE ARE HOLES IN THEM, QUESTIONING THE STABILITY OF THE VEHICLE ENTIRELY. THE VEHICLE ARE UNSAFE TO BE ON THE ROAD AND HONDA IS AWARE OF THE PROBLEM BUT IS DOING LITTLE TO TAKE CARE OF THE PROBLEM. *TR

MY 2001 HONDA PASSPORT IS INCLUDED IN THE RECALL JUST RELEASED BY ISUZU AND HONDA. THEY'VE ONLY RECALLED THE "LOWER LINK BRACKET" BUT IN READING OTHER COMPLAINTS IT IS THE CONSENSUS THAT THIS IS A FRAME ISSUE, WHICH SHOULD BE RECALLED. I'M IN THE PROCESS OF WAITING TO HEAR FROM HONDA MITIGATION ABOUT THE NEXT STEP AS THEY HAVE DEEMED MY VEHICLE NOT REPAIRABLE. *TR

THE FRAME ON MY 2001 HONDA PASSPORT IS RUSTED VERY BAD WITH HOLES ALL THROUGH IT.VEHICLE IS AT THE DEALER NOW FOR THE RECALL ON THE SUSPENSION BRACKET THE DEALER SAY'S IT WILL BE A STAGE 4 REPAIR ON THIS RECALL. I ASKED THEM IF MY PASSPORT COULD PASS A SAFETY INSPECTION WHEN IT WAS DONE WHICH RUNS OUT JANUARY 31,2011 AND THEY SAID IT MAY NOT.I'VE BEEN IN A RENTAL CAR SINCE OCTOBER FOR THIS RECALL AND ALL THAT TIME AMERICAN HONDA KEEPS TELLING ME THEY ARE GOING TO FIX THE PROBLEM WITH THE FRAME AND NOW I'M BEING TOLD IT MAY NOT.THE PROBLEM IS NOT THE BRACKETS, THE PROBLEM IS THE FRAME. SOMEONE NEEDS TO LOOK AT MY VEHICLE THE FRAMES ARE ROTTING FROM THE INSIDE OUT JUST TO LOOK AT IT, IT LOOKS GOOD TILL YOU TOUCH IT AND IT JUST CRUMBLES. CAN YOU UPDATE YOUR RECALL TO INCLUDE THE FRAMES. *TR

I WAS DRIVING MY 2001 HONDA PASSPORT AND AS I TURNED A CORNER, IT FELT AS IF THE REAR WAS FISH TAILING BUT IT WASN'T VERY NOTICEABLE. I DROVE HOME AND LATER LEFT TO BRING MY DAUGHTER TO DRIVER'S ED AND AS I PULLED OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY, I FELT AS IF I LOST CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE, LIKE I WAS DRIVING ON ICE. I HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED ON A FLAT BED AND REPAIRED, THOUGH MY MECHANIC STATED THAT THE REPAIR WASN'T GOING TO HOLD FOR ALL THAT LONG DUE TO THE HORRIBLE RUST ISSUES ON THE FRAME. I HAD THE DRIVER'S SIDE "PATCHED" A FEW YEARS AGO WHEN I WENT TO HAVE THE VEHICLE INSPECTED, IT DIDN'T PASS DUE TO THE FRAME. THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS ISSUE! I'D PREFER FOR ALL OF THESE VEHICLES BE REMOVED FROM THE ROADWAY AND FOR THE DEALERS TO PROPERLY REIMBURSE THEIR CUSTOMERS. MY VEHICLE HAS LOST A LOT OF VALUE BECAUSE OF THE PATCHES MADE TO THE FRAME. I'M AFRAID I'VE LOST A LOT OF MONEY. *TR
