Does anyone have a infant (rear facing) seat that will fit in the 2nd row seat and allow the front seat to come back to accomodate a 6 foot passenger? 06 pilot, leather. Seat was on left, moved it to right side but the front seat passenger is really cramped (5 foot 6 wife with knees in dash). Thinking of putting it in the middle, but it might hit both seats. Any thoughts? NO LATCH IN MIDDLE. Maybe someone has a brand seat that fits better......

Replying to: fapel (Dec 30, 2005 10:43 am) I do think there are two sides to these issues. A small percentage of even the most reliable cars are going to have major problems, and Honda is meeting it's obligations under the warranty. I don't think Honda is behaving any differently than any other mfg - I have not heard of a car company simply replacing a vehicle in this situation. I also think there is a good chance the car will be "good as new" if the work is performed competently. While there might be a slight resale hit if the car was sold in the near term, it won't be much of a factor once the car has 50K miles of good service - I certainly wouldn't hesitate to buy a new car that had it's engine replaced early in it's life if it has a good service record following the repair. It does sound like Honda is willing to go with a free extended warranty. If you have a warranty to 120K miles on the new engine, that seems like a fairly good assurance that any problems with the engine will be Honda's problems, not yours, for as long as you own the car. I know it is attractive to think the a car company should just step in and provide a new car whenever an owner has a major problem with a recently purchased vehicle. But if all the car mfgs did this, they'd have to raise the price of cars accordingly and we'd all pay, one way or the other. It's a zero-sum game. Like I said, two sides to this issue. Good luck getting satisfactory resolution regardless. - Mark |

| OK, after almost purchasing a LT Tahoe a few years ago, I'm back doing research for a vehicle that can carry 8 passengers but is not a minivan. So far our Outback has done a great job but with a new child, it is getting a little small. I like getting decent gas mileage and will never tow anything. Therefore, I have narrowed it down to the 2006 Honda Pilot and now the 2007 Tahoe with it's "cylinder deactivation thang". Any comments? | |
