Warranty Extension: 2009–10 Pilot Front Suspension Rear Lower Arm Bushing

 

AFFECTED VEHICLES

Year Model Trim VIN Range
2009–10 Pilot ALL Check the iN VIN status for eligibility

 

 

BACKROUND

American Honda is extending the warranty on the front suspension rear lower arm (compliance) bushings to  June 30, 2017, or 120,000 miles, whichever comes first.

This warranty covers vehicles where the compliance bushing is making noise or leaking fluid.

This warranty extension will not apply to any vehicle that has ever been declared a total loss or sold for salvage by a financial institution or insurer, or has a branded or similar title under any state’s law.

 

Rear Lower Arm Bushing

There are two bulletins that address the Pilot’s compliance bushings:

  • S/B 15-044, Warranty Extension: 2009–10 Front Suspension Rear Lower Arm Bushing, which covers some 2009–10 vehicles. The extended warranty covering these vehicles may have already expired, or will expire before June 30, 2017, based on the original date of purchase. To improve customer confidence, vehicles covered under this bulletin will receive a grace period that covers the compliance bushing until June 30, 2017 (or 120,000 miles) to ensure that all customers receive at least 2 years of coverage. This bulletin will expire June 30, 2017.
  • S/B 15-045, 2009–14 Front Suspension Rear Lower Arm Bushing. Vehicles covered under this bulletin will have the warranty on the compliance bushing extended to 7 years from the original date of purchase or 100,000 miles, whichever comes first.

 

CUSTOMER NOTIFICATION

Owners of affected vehicles will be sent a notification of this warranty extension in July 2015.

Do an iN VIN status inquiry to make sure the vehicle is shown as eligible.

 

CORRECTIVE ACTION

Replace both front suspension rear lower arm bushings if one is making noise or leaking.

  1. Install a new self-locking nut, then tighten the nut to 162 N·m (119 lb-ft).
  2. Install the lower arm stops.

NOTE: Align the slot on the lower arm stop with the lug portion on the front side of the lower arm bushing.

Align the slot

 

  1. Install the lower arm with new bolts:
    • Lightly tighten the bolts.
    • Raise the suspension to load it with the vehicle’s weight before fully tightening the bolts. Do not place the jack against the ball joint on the lower arm.
    • Torque the 14 mm bolts to 93 N·m (69 lb-ft), and torque the 16 mm bolt to 162 N·m (119 lb-ft).
    • Install the mounting bolt on the rear side of the stabilizer bar bushing holder, and torque it to 39 N·m (29 lb-ft).
  1. Degrease the threaded section and the tapered portion of the ball joint pin, the ball joint connecting hole, and the threaded section and the mating surfaces of the castle nut. Connect the ball joint to the lower arm, being careful not to damage the ball joint boot when connecting the knuckle.
  2. Torque the castle nut to the lower torque specification (103–113 N·m [76–83 lb-ft]), then tighten it only far enough to align the slot with the ball joint pin hole. Do not align the castle nut by loosening it. Insert the lock pin. 15. Repeat steps 3 thru 14 on the other side of the vehicle.
  3. Clean the mating surfaces on the brake discs and the inside of the wheels, then install the front wheels.
  4. Check the front wheel alignment and adjust it if needed.
