Service brakes, Jul 23, 2019
ON TWO OCCASIONS I WAS DRIVING AT A SPEED BETWEEN 30-45 MPH ON A STATE HIGHWAY WHEN FOR NO APPARENT REASON THE AUTO BRAKING SYSTEM SLAMMED ON THE BRAKES NEARLY CAUSING THE CAR BEHIND ME TO HIT ME. THE SECOND TIME THE ROAD WAS SLICK AND I NEARLY LOST CONTROL.

Service brakes, Jun 23, 2019
AT TRAFFIC LIGHT, CAR WONT STOP DURING BRAKING, THERE WAS AN ABNORMAL VIBRATION. SPEED WAS +/-20 MPH. I HAD TO TURN RIGHT TO AVOID ACCIDENT AND AFTER 300FT CAR STOP, BRAKES WORK TO NORMAL AGAIN. INCIDENT HAPPENED IN QUIET FM ROAD, ABOUT 1 MILES FROM HOME. MILEAGE 22K.
Service brakes, May 19, 2019
THIS VEHICLE APPEARS TO HAVE FAULTY BRAKES - EITHER BY DESIGN OR BY MANUFACTURING. WHILE I CANNOT COMMENT ON THE CHANCES OF BRAKE FAILURE BUT THE PERFORMANCE OF THE BRAKES IS UNSATISFACTORY AND UNPREDICTABLE. I'M FAIRLY CONFIDENT I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE AFFECTED. I WOULD PERSONALLY INVESTIGATE THE BRAKES ON THE CURRENT GENERATION HONDA PILOTS AS THEY APPEAR TO BE A POTENTIAL SAFETY ISSUE. BUT, THE DECISION TO UNDERTAKE THIS EXERCISE OF INVESTIGATING HONDA IS UP TO YOU.
Forward collision avoidance, Apr 10, 2019
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA PILOT. WHILE DRIVING 50 MPH, THE COLLISION MITIGATION BRAKING SYSTEM ENGAGED AND CAUSED THE VEHICLE TO BRAKE WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO BILLY NAVARRE HONDA (1310 E COLLEGE ST, LAKE CHARLES, LA 70605, (337) 429-2137) TO BE DIAGNOSED, BUT THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE COULD NOT BE DETERMINED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED AND THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND INFORMED THE CONTACT TO CALL NHTSA TO FILE A COMPLAINT. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 28,000.

I WAS DRIVING ON I-40 IN NASHVILLE, TN, MOVING SLOWLY DUE TO TRAFFIC CONGESTION WHEN WHAT SOUNDED LIKE AN EXPLOSION OCCURRED. I COULD NOT IMMEDIATELY FIGURE OUT THE CAUSE BUT MY PASSENGER NOTICED WIND NOISE AND PUSHED THE SUNROOF VISOR BACK. GLASS FELL IN THE CAR. WE STOPPED AT THE NEXT EXIT AND FOUND THAT THE SUNROOF HAD A HUGE HOLE AND THE GLASS HAD FALLEN ONTO THE VISOR. NOBODY WAS INJURED BECAUSE THE VISOR KEPT THE GLASS OUT OF THE CABIN. WE WERE SHAKEN BUT I WAS ABLE TO MAINTAIN CONTROL AND GET OUT OF THE WAY OF TRAFFIC.

VEHICLE LED HEADLIGHTS ARE TOO BRIGHT. ONCOMING TRAFFIC FLASHES HIGH BEAMS AT ME THINKING MY BRIGHTS ARE ON CREATING A HAZARD FOR MYSELF AND ONCOMING TRAFFIC. MANY TIMES I AM BLINDED BY THE BLINDING LIGHTS OF THEIR HIGH BEAMS BEAM LIGHTS BEING FLASHED AND HAVE GONE OFF THE ROAD DUE TO THE BLINDNESS. I HAVE CONTACTED AMERICAN HONDA BUT HAVE NOT RECEIVED HELP. THE DEALER HAS ADJUSTED THE HEADLIGHTS WITH LITTLE EFFECT. THE VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED RECENTLY. IT HAS LED HEADLAMPS, AND WAS A LATE MODEL 2017 RECENTLY PURCHASED AS A NEW VEHICLE. I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE AT NIGHT DUE TO THE FREQUENT EVENTS OF ONCOMING VEHICLES FLASHING THEIR HIGH BEAM HEADLIGHTS IN RESPONSE TO THE PERCEPTION THAT MY HIGH BEAMS ARE ON. AS A RESULT OF THIS, I HAVE TO FLASH MY HIGH BEAMS IN RESPONSE TO LET THE ONCOMING TRAFFIC KNOW MY HIGH BEAMS ARE NOT ON. SOMETIMES OPPOSING TRAFFIC LEAVES THEIR HIGH BEAMS ON IN RETALIATION TO THE PERCEPTION MY HIGH BEAMS ARE ON CREATING A TEMPORARY CONDITION OF BLINDNESS ON MY PART AND HAS CAUSE ME TO RUN OFF THE ROAD. I NEED YOUR HELP IN GETTING AMERICAN HONDA TO HELP RESOLVE THIS. THANKS YOU, [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

Fuel/propulsion system, Oct 12, 2018
MY CAR SHOWED UP WARNING MESSAGE "EMISSIONS SYSTEM PROBLEM" WHEN IN MOTION AND IT IS REALLY SCARY AS THE VEHICLE WAS HAVING PASSENGERS (INCLUDING KIDS) AND IN THE HIGHWAY DRIVING. I COULDN'T FOCUS ON WHAT TO DO BUT RATHER STOP ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. THEN I WAS ABLE TO DO BIT OF GOOGLE AND GOT TO KNOW THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE WITH THE 2016-17 HONDA PILOT AND I CAN DRIVE THE CAR TO HOME WITH THE WARNING. CAR IS HAVING 33K MILES ON IT AND STILL UNDER THE WARRANTY. IT HAS ALL THE RECOMMENDED MAINTENANCE WORK DONE ACCORDING TO THE MANUFACTURER RECOMMENDATIONS. AFTER I GOT THE WARNING MESSAGE AT NIGHT, THE VERY NEXT DAY I DROVE IT TO THE HONDA AGENT AND THEY CHECKED THE CAR AND THEY MENTIONED THERE IS A SOFTWARE UPDATE NEEDED TO BE DONE AND NEEDS INJECTOR REPLACEMENT. THEY ALSO MENTIONED THEY ARE GETTING PILOTS WITH THIS ERROR MORE OFTEN NOW AND I AM NOT ALONE. THE ERROR CODE IT SHOWS IS 'P0430'. A BRAND NEW VEHICLE WITH JUST 33K MILES GETTING INJECTOR REPLACEMENT IS NOT WHAT IS MENTIONED IN THE OWNERS MANUAL. IF THIS IS GETTING AGAIN AND AGAIN THE COST OF OWNING THE CAR SEEMS REALLY EXPENSIVE AND WORTHLESS. SPECIALLY WITH THE ISSUES OF EMISSIONS THE CAR MAY STALL ANYWHERE AND CREATE A SAFETY HAZARD FOR THE PASSENGERS AND OTHERS ON THE ROAD. I WOULD RECOMMEND HONDA COMES IN AND FIX THIS ISSUE IN ALL THE 2016-17 PILOT CARS EVEN OUTSIDE THE BASIC WARRANTY AS A RECALL WITHOUT PUTTING THEIR CUSTOMERS IN TROUBLE. THANKS.
Seat belts, Oct 8, 2018
DRIVER SEAT BELT IS VERY SHORT, COMPARING TO OTHER MAKES AND MODELS CAN NOT REACH THE DASH WHEN TRYING TO CLEAR WINDOW OR DASH IF SOMETHING IS ON THERE SEATBELT LOCKS UP ABOUT QUARTER WAY TO DASH. MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE , HAVE TO BUY EXTENDER FOR OVERISEZED PERSON...

MY WIFE WAS DRIVING THE VEHICLE ON 09-27-18 AND THE VEHICLE LOST POWER, THE DASH LIT UP ORANGE, AND SEVERAL WARNING LIGHTS CANE ON AND STARTED BEEPING. AS SHE ATTEMPTED TO PULL OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, THE ISSUE RESET ITSELF, AND THE VEHICLE RESUMED POWER AGAIN. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO HONDA FOR A FINAL REPAIR FOR TRANSMISSION ISSUES THE FOLLOWING DAY. IT IS 9 DAYS LATER AND THE VEHICLE IS STILL NOT REPAIRED. PER THE SERVICE ADVISOR, THE DEALERSHIP HAS REPLACED 3 WIRING HARNESSES UNDER THE DASH THAT THEY SAY WERE DEFECTIVE FROM THE FACTORY, ALONG WITH 2 MODULES. THE VEHICLE IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE IN ITS CURRENT STATE, AS IT ITERMITTENTLY LOSES POWER. THE VEHICLE HAD TO BE TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP IN AUGUST DUE TO THE PUSH BUTTON TRANSMISSION GOING INTO NEUTRAL WHILE DRIVING, AND LOSING FORWARD POWER. THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT GO INTO PARK OR NEUTRAL.
Service brakes, Sep 26, 2018
PURCHASED OUR 2017 PILOT STRAIGHT FROM DEALER IN FEB 2017; BY SUMMER, BRAKES WOULD SQUEAK WHEN PRESSURE APPLIED - GOT MUCH WORSE OVER TIME. SENT MULTIPLE VIDEOS OVER NEXT 12 MONTHS, HAD CAR IN FOR REPAIR AT LEAST ONCE A MONTH - SERVICE DEPT COULD NEVER RESOLVE ISSUE, DESPITE REPLACING BRAKE PADS AND ENTIRE BRAKE SYSTEM. PER DEALERSHIP, AMERICAN HONDA MOTORS REFUSES TO ACKNOWLEDGE PROBLEM DESPITE DEALERSHIP DOING SO.
Electrical system, Sep 17, 2018
EVERY FEW DAYS WE GET A INDICATOR THAT READS 'KEYLESS START SYSTEM PROBLEM'. HAVE REPLACED THE BATTERY IN FOBS, NO CHANGE. INDICATOR COMES ON WHEN STARTING THE VEHICLE & STAYS ON UNTIL TURNED OFF, MAY OR MAY NOT COME BACK THE NEXT TIME STARTING IT.
Visibility/wiper, Aug 30, 2018
WHILE DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEED THE DRIVER'S-SIDE WIPER STOPPED WORKING. HAD TO STOP ON HARD SHOULDER. ISSUE WAS NOT OBVIOUS. THE RAIN WAS NOT GOING TO END ANY TIME SOON SO MY PARTNER ENDED UP DRIVING THEIR VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME WITH THE HAZARDS FLASHING AT LOW SPEED SO I COULD FOLLOW THEM CLOSELY UNTIL WE COULD GET TO AN EXIT AND LEAVE THE PILOT AT A PARK-AND-RIDE. THIS WAS VERY DANGEROUS: SUDDEN LOSS OF VISIBILITY AND THEN BEING STRANDED ON THE HARD SHOULDER WITH TRUCKS PASSING CLOSELY. TOOK THE PILOT TO THE DEALER THE NEXT DAY. THEY REMOVED A RUBBER COVER FROM THE WIPER MOUNT AND TIGHTENED THE BOLT THAT IS UNDERNEATH. THE SERVICE ADVISER SAID THEY CAN COME LOOSE IN THE WINTER DUE TO THE WIPERS GETTING STUCK IN ICE. I AM AMAZED THAT THIS RELIES SOLELY ON FRICTION TO FUNCTION GIVEN HOW DANGEROUS IT IS WHEN THEY FAIL.
Vehicle speed control, Aug 24, 2018, crash
TL* THE CONTACT OWNED A 2017 HONDA PILOT. WHILE PULLING INTO A PARKING SPACE AT A VERY SLOW SPEED, THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY EXPERIENCED UNINTENDED ACCELERATION AND CRASHED INTO A UTILITY POLE. THE VEHICLE WAS DESTROYED AND TOWED. THE DRIVER AND FRONT SEAT PASSENGER SUSTAINED TORSO BRUISES FROM THE SEAT BELTS, WHICH DID NOT REQUIRE MEDICAL ATTENTION. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO INDICATED THAT, AFTER STARTING THE VEHICLE, THE ENGINE CONTINUED TO REV EXTREMELY HIGH. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND SENT A REPRESENTATIVE TO EVALUATE THE VEHICLE; HOWEVER, NO FAILURE WAS FOUND. THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE WAS NOT DETERMINED. THE LOCAL DEALER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 20,000.
Visibility/wiper, Aug 24, 2018
WE WERE DRIVING ON I90 HIGHWAY FROM CHICAGO TO MICHIGAN. SUDDENLY WE HEARD LOUD SOUND ON THE ROOF OF THE CAR AND THAN SHATTERING SOUND FROM THE GLASS. WE OPENED A COVER A LITTLE TO SEE WHAT HAPPENED AND THE GLASS OF THE SUNROOF WAS BROKEN AND SHATTERED. THERE WAS VERY LIGHY TRAFFIC ON THE HIGHWAY AND THERE WAS NO VEHICLES IN FRONT OF US. WE STOPPED TO INSPECT THE ROOF AND THERE WAS NO SIGN OF IMPACT OR OBJECTS INSIDE. IT JUST BROKE BY ITSELF. TEMPERATURE OUTSIDE IS AROUND 65, NO RAIN, FEW CLOUDS. WE WERE DRIVING AT SPEED AROUND 70. TEMPERATURE INSIDE OF THE CAR IS SET ON 73. NOTHING UNUSUAL OR DIFFERENT THAN ANY OTHER DAY.
Power train, Aug 21, 2018
WHILE DRIVING ON A BUSY ROAD WITH MY WIFE, MY VEHICLE SHUDDERED WHILE ACCELERATING, AND BEGAN JERKING AND SLOWING DOWN BEFORE LOSING ALL ACCELERATION. MULTIPLE WARNING LIGHTS WENT OFF, AND THE TRANMISSION AUTOMATICALLY SHIFTED TO NEUTRAL. THE TRANSMISSION IS A 9 SPEED, PUSH BUTTON SHIFT. WE WE WERE ALMOST REAR ENDED BY THE VEHICLE BEHIND US WHILE ATTEMPTING TO COAST TO THE SHOULDER. WHILE ATTEMPTING TO FIGURE OUT WHAT WAS GOING ON, I WAS UNABLE TO SHIFT THE VEHICLE INTO ANY GEAR. IT WOULD NOT SHIFT INTO PARK, REVERSE, OR DRIVE. I CONTACTED THE HONDA DEALERSHIP AND REPORTED THE ISSUE AND HAD TO HAVE THE VEHICLE TOWED. WHILE WAITING FOR 2 HOURS ON THE SODE OF THE ROAD FOR TOWING, I WAS UNABLE TO GET THE TRANSMISSION TO SHIFT INTO ANY GEAR. IT WAS ONLY AFTER THE TOW TRUCK DRIVER ARRIVED, AND I SHUT THE VEHICLE OFF THAT THE CAR FINALLY SHIFTED INTO A GEAR. THE VEHICLE IS CURRENTLY AT THE HONDA DEALERSHIP AND BEING DIAGNOSED. THERE WERE 4 ERROR MESSAGES THAT I RECEIVED WHEN ALL OF THIS OCCURRED. I HAVE PHOTOS, AND A VIDEO OF IT AS WELL. THIS IS NOT MY FIRST ISSUE WITH THE TRANSMISSION. IT HAS BEEN TO THE SHOP TWICE BEFORE FOR SHUDDERING WHEN SHIFTING AT LOW SPEEDS, AND NOT SHIFTING PROPERLY. THE VEHICLE CURRENLY HAS AROUND 18,500 MILES ON IT. FORTUNATELY THIS TRANMISSION ISSUE HAPPENED ON A SIDE ACCESS ROAD, AND NOT ON THE TURNPIKE, OR THE END RESULT MAY HAVE BEEN AN ACCIDENT INVOLVED. THE DEALERSHIP CANNOT EXPLAIN WHY THE TRANSMISSION SHIFTED TO NUETRAL AND COMPLETELY LOVKED OUT THE ABILITY TO SHIFT OR MOVE IT UNDER ITS OWN POWER. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING THE VEHICLE, AND FEEL THAT IT IS A HAZARD TO OTHER DRIVERS. I HAVE VIDEO OF THE TRANSMISSION NOT SHIFTING BUT WAS UNABLE TO LOAD THAT AS AN ATTACHMENT.

Service brakes, Fuel/propulsion system, Aug 6, 2018
I HAVE 2017 HONDA PILOT TOURING. I HAVE A REOCCURRING PROBLEM WITH THE ANTI BREAK MITIGATION SYSTEM. IT CONTINUALLY ACTIVATES IN MULTIPLE DRIVING SITUATIONS THAT DO NOT REQUIRE IT TO ACTIVATE. THIS PROBLEM OCCURS WHEN I'M DRIVING AT DIFFERENT SPEEDS, WITH AND WITHOUT THE CRUISE CONTROL IS SET, AND ON ANY TYPE OF ROAD. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALERSHIP 5 TIMES TO HAVE THIS PROBLEM CORRECTED. THEY HAVE BEEN ABLE TO DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. THEY HAVE TRIED TO REPAIR THIS PROBLEM 5 TIMES WITHOUT SUCCESS. THE ANTI BREAK SYSTEM CONTINUES TO ACTIVATE INCORRECTLY ON ALMOST A DAILY BASIS. THE DEALERSHIP HAS STATED THAT THERE ISN'T A PROBLEM AND THAT I CAN TURN OFF THE ANTI BREAK SYSTEM AND DRIVE MY VEHICLE WITHOUT IT. I PAID FOR THIS FEATURE AND I DO NOT THINK THAT I NEED TO TURN IT OFF AS IT IS A SAFETY FEATURE OF MY CAR. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE AND IT NEEDS TO OPERATE CORRECTLY. I ALSO HAD TO REPLACE THE FUEL INJECTION SYSTEM.
