Representative owner complaints
906 reports, newest first.
Engine, Jan 3, 2023
When driving and coming to a stop the idle - stop engages but when the brake is released the engine does not restart. The vehicle dies and has to be completely shut off and restarted. The vehicle start button has to be pressed 2 or 3 times before it finally restarts. This has occurred multiple times and has happened in a high traffic area. The vehicle takes 3-5 minutes before it can be fully restarted.
Electrical system, Dec 28, 2022
Car has failed to restart multiple times after the idle mode feature kicks in when coming to a complete stop. Emergency lights also do not function when this occurs making this very dangerous, especially at night. It can take several minutes before the car starts. Car was looked at by the dealership where they could not replicate it. I disable this feature now when driving. The car has failed to start now on a few occasions and sometimes will only start in accessory mode.
Electrical system, Engine, Dec 21, 2022
When stopped at a light, the auto engine idle stop/start did not re-engage after taking my foot off the brake. It took the car a few seconds to turn back on and be able to accelerate. This could happen in the middle of an intersection and cause accidents. This happened a second time today and the LKAS system was alerting that maintenance is needed.
Engine, Dec 16, 2022
Our Honda auto engine idle stop system routinely malfunctions. On numerous occasions, our car has completely turned off (radio and other power features go off as well) when it was in idle-stop mode and tried to start again. This has happened on major intersections when we come to a red light more than 10X with my family in the car. It causes delays in getting the car to start again. We have to put the car back in park, press the brake, and push the start button. We have to repeat these steps numerous times before the car will start again. Extremely dangerous. While not as dangerous, it does occur at stops signs. We've taken the care to the dealership multiple times. We are told they are aware of the issue but there is nothing they can do. The only solution is to disable the auto-idle button each time we restart the car.
Power train, Electrical system, Forward collision avoidance, Dec 5, 2022
This is a 2019 Honda Pilot with start stop function. There is a noticeable delay in activation and getting longer with time; this is a 3 year old vehicle. During 2 other instances, the system failed and vehicle would not start on a public street. During these failures and delays, other than the obvious collision safety issue, the safety systems are unavailable via a message on the dash. When it eventually starts back up it functions normally. This is clearly the system prematurely failing or the system prematurely killing the battery (which has a normal functional life of 5 - 7 years).
Electrical system, Engine, Dec 5, 2022
When stopped at a stoplight or stop sign, the car has an auto start/stop feature where instead of the car idling, it shuts off and then starts back up when the brake is released. The car stalls and displays several dashboard warning lights and will not start back up after it auto stops. After several minutes, I can usually get it to start back up, but it typically happens in heavy traffic causing a substantial safety issue.

The contact owns a 2019 Honda Pilot. The contact stated that the vehicle was taken to the dealer to be repaired under NHTSA Campaign Number: 21V932000 (Structure, Latches/Locks/Linkages). The contact stated that the hood was not latching properly. The vehicle was taken back to the dealer and the dealer stated that the vehicle needed to be taken to the Collision Center. The vehicle was taken to the Collision Center and the hood was replaced; however, not all the needed parts were available. The vehicle was not completely repaired. The manufacturer was contacted and informed the contact to seek assistance from the Collision Center. The failure mileage was 25,000.

No Restart After Auto Start/Stop Engages. On several occasions when coming to a full stop at a red light/stop sign or heavy traffic, the auto start/stop feature turns of the engine. However, when releasing the brake, which is supposed to turn the engine back on, the engine stalls and takes several attempts to restart the engine via the push button starter. Have taken the vehicle to our local Honda dealership several times. First couple of times they said it was a weak battery and they replaced it twice under the vehicles warranty. The third time they said it was our aftermarket forward camera that was causing interference and was charge by the dealer to remove and reprogram the "system". Fourth time they said it was a dirty throttle body and also had to pay to have it cleaned. Eventually found article on the internet from June '22 that there is an open investigation by NHTSA on this issue. Took vehicle back to dealership again and they wanted to charge for cleaning the throttle body but declined. Vehicle is not safe to drive with Auto/Stop feature on. We consciously have to turn off feature when initially starting the vehicle to avoid it from stalling in busy traffic or intersection.
Electrical system, Engine, Nov 23, 2022
Our 2019 Honda Pilot has issues when the start-stop is active. When we come to a stop at a traffic light, gate, etc. it often will not restart on brake release. This creates serious concern in heavy traffic and we have been close to being rear-ended at stop lights. To restart the car we often have issues if it stalls during this brake press and release. It seems to electronically show in park, but not able to restart since it is not in park. We also see the issue when brake is pressed and tries to restart based on time. There are various lights on when this occurs. If we don’t activate the start-stop we don’t see the issue. If we manually turn the start-stop we don’t see the issue. However we need remember to turn this off manually defeating the fuel savings. I believe we can replicate this.
Electrical system, Engine, Nov 23, 2022
The automatic start/stop system turns the car off at red lights, as it it supposed to. However, several times the car will not start when I push the gas pedal but instead the whole car turns off. It takes opening and closing the door while pushing the park button and the engine start button to turn the car back on. This usually occurs at red lights which is very dangerous.
Power train, Nov 21, 2022
The contact owns a 2019 Honda Pilot. The contact stated while stopped, the vehicle independently shifted to neutral. The contact stated that the vehicle failed to accelerate or shift to drive. The vehicle had to be turned off and restarted and the vehicle to operated correctly. The contact stated that the failure occurred several times. The contact also stated that there was a clicking noise coming from the vehicle. The vehicle was not taken to an independent mechanic or dealer for diagnosis or repairs. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 71,000.

During stops, when I release the foot from the brake pedal, car suddenly shuts off, which becomes a safety issue. It takes me a minute or two to get the car started again. In case I shut off the "Auto-shutoff" feature, car works perfectly fine. I must shut off the feature every time I restart the car.
Electrical system, Engine, Nov 16, 2022
In AUg 2021 when the auto stop engaged the car would fail to turn on. Errors would come on on the dash and while car would die at stoplight. Took to dealer and they could not replicate so nothing was done. This happened randomly and we would need to put in park, wait a while and turn back on. Then in Oct 2021 the battery died and they replaced under warranty. There was no issues until Nov. 2022. The same started happening. Again dealer could not replicate and nothing was done. They did note the 1 year old advanced battery was low and charge and have charged it.
Electrical system, Nov 9, 2022
For several months I have been experiencing occasionally and randomly a complete shut down of my vehicle whenever I'm at a complete stop. I need to restart my vehicle completely which typically turns on, but in some instances I have to try up to a couple of times. This has happened over a dozen times in a 6-9 months time frame. Sometimes when restarting the vehicle a message will appear on my screen that says my auto theft has been disabled and stays on until the next time I restart. This issue has been a source of anxiety for my children and I and we feel unsafe. I dropped of my vehicle at the dealership and they explained that my 2019 is due for a new battery which is being installed today 11/9/2022 at 45k miles. I never got a warning that a new battery was required and I've been informed by the dealership that "old codes had to be erased". They are assuring me that this will take care of the problem I have been experiencing for months.

All the lights on my dashboard were flickering and vehicle would not start. I was getting error messages on vehicle display that all my vehicle systems were offline. Vehicle started the next day, however at a red light my vehicle shut off and was no longer drivable. My vehicle died on the road and I was able to put my hazards on for other vehicles to go around me. We shut the vehicle down and approximately 20 minutes later the vehicle was drivable again. We took the vehicle in the next day for a full diagnostic. Everything came back normal and we read online that the battery may need to be replaced. Diagnostic said battery was OK, but we had it replaced anyway. I drove my vehicle that evening and while driving all my lights came up on my dashboard again. I pulled over, worrying that my vehicle would shut down while driving. Later that day my vehicle would not start again.

I was stopped at a stop light and the engine went into "idle" mode and then cut off completely and all power was lost. I put the vehicle in park and attempted to restart unsuccessfully. I was unable to restart the vehicle for several minutes.
Engine, Nov 4, 2022
The vehicle is equipped with the Automatic Start/Stop feature. Three times in the past few months, the car has unexpectedly stalled at a red light in the middle of traffic, creating a hazard for us and drivers around us. The electric power steering system warning light came on momentarily, and the display screen said ‘Radio not available”. We were able to turn the car back on after a slight hesitation, but the radio and controls on the steering wheel stopped working. All controls, and the radio, were working again after leaving the car off for a few hours. The car was taken to our local Honda dealer, who did not find any diagnostic codes and was unable to duplicate the problem.
Electrical system, Engine, Forward collision avoidance, Nov 4, 2022
Our 2019 Honda Pilot will flash the brake for the front collision warning system when there is no oncoming traffic or even when the oncoming traffic is in its lane. It does not always happen, but enough to be an annoyance. It also tends, when stopped at a light, and the auto stop engages not to restart. The entire electrical system goes haywire and then dies. This includes the ability to use your 4way or emergency flashers. The car then has to be jumped or towed to restart the vehicle.

Auto restart after stop does not seem to be functioning. After stopping at a light, auto restart did not start the car again.
Service brakes, Engine, Oct 27, 2022
The auto -stop feature is now completely defective. Since I hit 30,000 miles I have had issues with it infrequently completely shutting off the engine. Now the mileage is higher, the vehicle shuts off every time I stop at light or stop sign. I have approximately 56,000 miles on the vehicle. It has been regularly serviced at the dealership. I feel this is a major safety issue since other vehicles expect me to be moving one the light etc., changes. There are no warning lights or other symptoms prior to the failure.

NUMEROUS RESTART ISSUES WHEN CAR IN IN IDLE MODE STOPPED AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT OR STOP SIGN. APPROXIMATELY 6 TIMES, MY CAR HAS BEEN STOPPED, IN IDLE MODE, AND SHIFTED INTO "NEUTRAL" & STALLING. I'M REQUIRED TO PLACE CAR INTO "PARK", TURN ON POWER, SHIFT TO DRIVE IN ORDER TO ACCELERATE. MESSAGES REGARDING "COLLISION MITIGATION SYSTEM" AND ALMOST STALLING ALSO OCCURS WHEN CAR IS STOPPED IN IDLE MODE. MY BATTERY (OF LESS THAN 3YRS) HAS BEEN REPLACED AS NOTHING ELSE HAS BEEN "DIAGNOSED" BY HONDA. ALTHOUGH THESE ISSUES HAVE SINCE OCCURRED SINCE REPLACING MY BATTERY.
Fuel/propulsion system, Oct 25, 2022
With the Honda Pilot stopped, the engine shut off with the Auto Engine Idle Stop Feature, but recently when pressing the accelerator pedal the car stalled out and turned off completely including disconnecting blue tooth and audio and display. This has happened one time where it completely shut off instead of restarting when pressing accelerator - but has also had exceptionally long "stall out" timing several other times when accelerator is pressed after stopping at stop light or stop sign. This is a concern as the car is STOPPED when other cars anticipate the vehicle to move forward with traffic and could result in a rear end collision. There was a warning lamp message that flashed on and a dinging - similar to when the car starts initially.

When stopped at a red light the engine shifted from drive to neutral on its own. The brake became stiff and it took shutting off and restarting the car multiple times before it would shift. This is the third instance of this vehicle shifting to neutral on its own. After the previous times (they occurred within the same day- one shifting from park to neutral and the other similar to this experience, also at a red light), I took the car into the dealership where it came back showing no codes and could not be replicated while there. It is a push button electric shifter and the vehicle has had multiple recalls and service bulletins for electronics (all repaired) and has experienced issues beginning one month after I purchased the car brand new.
