Loud hum noise when driving, even at low speeds, we attributed it to new tires, but turned out to be the Right Wheel Bearing. Diagnosed quickly one eve by local mechanic, ordered part; repaired next morning. Quiet ride now. 
53300 mi Front bushings leaking 
21000 mi Heard a hum above 40 mph, Front And rear left side wheel bearings replaced. Required two trips. Also required two trips to complete maintenance ($320), as they screwed up my wheel balancing.

Sound while driving 
8500 mi right front wheel bearing was replaced 
56000 mi Honda could not duplicate the problem - which happens every time we go for service. The problem is never duplicated on the first visit, it always takes multiple visits 
63500 mi Compliance bushings were replaced. This was done due to a problem with my car - which took Honda 3 days to diagnose. However, I found out there is a TBS for this issue. Why weren't they replace immediately
