In owners' own words
When vehicle a stop, the passenger seat is shaking (vibration). Took the car to Honda dealer to demo and the tech manager agreed the passenger chair is shaking ( vibration) at idle .Call Honda regional manager to report the issue, they call Honda dealer to verified. After that Honda manager called me back and said no fixed for this. This is unacceptable. Please let Honda know this is safety issue . Thank you. Engine · reported at 10 miles
