Hi All, Have any of you experienced this per say: My 08 has now 9k and two weeks ago the tires were rotated for the first time. Quickly I picked up on the steering wheel beginning to wobble or shake at intervals (lasting only 30 secs or so) on the highway going above 50mph. I thought it could be surface related but on new paved lanes (regardless if it is center or not) it keeps on doing this. I had brought it back to the dealer twice. 1st time they rebalanced it and the second they did a "road force" one which honestly I never heard of such a thing before. Honestly, I have my reservations if anyone knows anything. Nevertheless, anyone can relate to this subtle wobbling?

Replying to: joninpa (Aug 19, 2009 12:48 pm) To go back to my issue with the memory steer. They put new lower control arms in as Honda said it must be the ball joints. To replace the ball joints they needed to put in new control arms. I couldn't believe it, it fixed the problem. Too good to be true...I guess. Now the vehicle, although not as bad, is again pulling to the right after right hand turns after putting about 500 miles on it. I would call it a drift instead of a pull but still annoying. Honda said they've replaced everything the can, but they haven't replaced tie rod ends. Couldn't this be the problem? A bad tie rod end would cause memory steer based on how it's torgued during a turn, correct? I can't believe all the problems people have with these things. |

See my previous post #75 which references all my other posts! Due to all the steering issues, several alignments have been done over the past year. I also take my vehicle in for the regularly scheduled service during which my tires are rotate. I now have approx. 19,000 miles on my 08 Odyssey and my 2 front tires are badly worn on the outside edge. I have to get 2 new tires. The wear is unusual. Also I have another problem. The car occasionally shakes and hesitates before the eco light comes on. I went driving with the service manager but he did not feel problem. It continues to worsen. Finally, I called the other day about the irregular wear on the tires and got the same manager. He said there is now a fix for the shaking problem. It is a computer update..something to due with the torque converter...hope it fixes the problem...hope they pay for the tires. ...
