Tl* the contact owns a 2000 honda passport. The contact stated that the check engine and transmission warning indicators were constantly illuminated. While driving various speeds and attempting to turn right or left, it required the contact to use extra effort to maneuver the vehicle. Additionally, there was smoke coming from the front passenger side of the vehicle. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic to be diagnosed. The contact was informed that the transmission, catalytic converter, and steering assembly needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The dealer and manufacturer were not notified of the failures. The approximate failure mileage was 139,000.

Just read web info on fuel gauge not reading correctly after gas tank is about half full on honda passports. My vehicle's fuel gauge moves significantly on turns and at times check engine light comes when tank is about gas 1/2 full. This just started happening when the vehicle had approx 87k miles on it. When gas tanked is topped off - usually around 8-10 gals - everything starts working fine again. Heard honda may have announced a recalled this for honda passports but up to year model1999. But given the same symptom and just started happening on my year 2000 vehicle ..thinking all years should be included. I have not talked to dealer yet. Honda maintains a great reputation and should offer an expanded recall. Given the age, the vehicle is like new and otherwise runs fantastic and I have low milage on the vehicle. Would imagine the same parts used in 1999 passports (fuel sending unit/lever) is same in the year 2000. Thank you for further research and information to honda passport owners.

Honda passport 2000: continuous failure of the gas sensor in the gas tank. Expensive procedure to fix and I have also been advised by dealer that the repair is costly and not effective. Because it causes the obc to "check engine" car always fails state emissions test. I purchased this car used and the used car dealer could not even explain the error at first. The car is made by izuzu and this is a common problem also with the rodeo's a recall needs to be made as I am sure many cars are failing the emissions test as well as running out of gas, while driving, because the sensor fails.
