Crosstour Vibration / Flutter 20 - 25 mph

[ArtH]

Owner of 2011 EX-L 4WD with 20-25 flutter (a good word for the phenomenon). For me the sensation results in my knees moving side to side as well as noting a slight vibration in the chassis via the seat. Don't feel it in accelerator however. Something is wrong in Denmark with CT front end suspension/drive shaft/differential/whatever and Honda ought to be talking about a recall. I haven't had the time to take my car to a dealer, and frankly, I ignored the vibration for a long while because I didn't like the idea of a new car I purchased not performing as I dreamed it would. Sounds crazy, but I think we who love cars sometimes purposely overlook flaws in order to appreciate the beauty inside, sort of like our wives. You know, nobody's perfect. Yet I intend to take the car in, and to reference everything in this forum regarding this issue. Will let you all know as well of course.

I had the same vibration problems on acceleration. Rotated and balanced tires, still vibrated. I finally took it in to my Dealer and the found the problem. They replace the left and right driveshaft assemblies, no questions asked. I do drive a lot with 82K miles on a 2010; fortunately, I bought the extended warranty and it was covered. Makes me wonder if this is a design flaw since it was replaced with no questions asked.

Replaced parts: 44305-TP6-A00 and 44306-TP6-A00

Running smooth so far, no more vibrations.

Just had the dealer replace both the left and right driveshaft assemblies. So far, vibrations are gone.

So did they give you much hassle to get that done. I've been experiencing that vibration as well and would like to get it resolved.

Maybe there is a Technical Service Bulletin (TSB) out there that covers this issue. Although, I could not find one. There are four power train TSBs out there but two are for a fouled plug issue and the other two are engine management software updates.

I went ahead and scheduled an appointment with my local dealership this saturday. Hopefully they get something done.
