If it's an All Wheel Drive model, you should probably stay away from it
anyhow, since they mixed old and new tires, which destroys the rear
differential clutch pack. Did you notice a scraping / grinding noise
when you did tight turns at low speed?
That's the first symptom of an AWD Honda that hasn't had the special
fluid in the differential changed regularly (50,000 Km). Any AWD Honda
can have that symptom, including the Element, Pilot, HR-V, CR-V . . .
