| Driving on the city streets about 15 mph around a corner the spare tire fell off from the bottom of the vehicle. upon further investigation the cable that holds the spare tire was frayed. the end of the cable was found on the street along with the spare tire. this event caused no damage to my vehicle or any other vehicle or pedestrians(happened in front of an elementary school after dropping off my kids). if this incident would have happened on the freeway, it might have had a different outcome. *tr | |||

| Began noticing a musty smell in the vehicle, followed several months later by a sloshing sound that eventually manifested itself into a rolling wave of water that swept over my floor mats. water is saturating the carpets (think of a wet sponge) after entering the vehicle passenger compartment through undetermined points at or near the firewall. this definitely occurs whenever the vehicle is driven in rain, when driven over wet and snow-covered roads, and when sitting in a car wash. i have not determined if it occurs while the vehicle sits unused in the driveway. the dealer has removed, cleaned, reinstalled, and resealed a body plug that was supposedly improperly sealed at the factory; yet, even after this service work, the problem persists. searching the web, i've noticed other honda pilot and ridgeline owners experiencing the same type of water leakage problem; and, with varying degrees of success, dealers seem to be putting band aids (caulk) on a variety of noted and potential entry points through the firewall, wheel wells, and welded metal joints. *tr | |||

| The new '2006 honda pilot had less than 8000 miles on it, and water was somehow getting into the vehicle from the roof and underneath the car , and was soaking the front carpets. i would have never noticed it if i had not decided to vacuum the carpets. during the winter months i noticed a dark substance underneath the seats, and now i realized it was water turned to ice. i realized whenever it rained water got into the vehicle, and remained for a few weeks unless one took out the mats. http://townhall-talk.edmunds.com/direct/view/.f11733a i visited the i above internet site and noticed i am not alone. i have searched far and wide and could not find this pilot wet carpet issue to be either a recall or a service bulletin which did not make any sense to me. was honda trying to keep this a secret? as of 05/08/2007 the pilot was still at a honda dealership being fixed. they reported to me that they were having trouble patching up all the leaks. a copy of my first of many invoices to come was enclosed. we performed bulletin 07-010. rechecked for leaks. water still coming in vehicle. water coming in by firewall we removed blower motor assembly, removed both front inner fender walls, and found water coming in from pillars on roof near windshield. we sealed the body seam. water tested again. and it was not leaking anymore. *ak i guess it's still leaking because i am still driving a loaner car. | |||
