Honda Pilot

"I already described the problems, but they began when I purchased the car new from the showroom when they were clearing their 2018 models in January of 2019. Since then, I've had it back tywice to beg the dealer's maintenance department, and they say it's just how that year's model works."

"The filters are built into the transmission, so they cannot replace. Less than every 30K miles, you feel a sluggish lurching feeling when the car is accelerating. The transmission needs to be flushed multiple times to clean the filters 1st time cost $400. Fluids are not covered under warranty. I've had to have this done twice and I have less than 60K miles on it. Previously, according to my mechanic, transmissions should be flushed every 100K miles. I would not buy this car again just because of this issue."

"Transmission slipping around 35mph. Transmission fluid change fixed issue but cost $600 at dealership"

"Recall"

"On the road at highway speeds when the emissions system alert appeared. I was able to drive home and the next morning drive to my mechanic. He ran a scan and got the code for the fuel injectors problem. He also noted that the issue was covered under an extended warrantee for the injectors and was actually in a recall notice. I had not yet received the recall notice as the parts were backordered. I contacted my Honda dealer and was advised that I had to get the vehicle to the dealership for repair. Since it over 150 km to the dealer I was unwilling to drive the vehicle. I called Honda Roadside Assistance and they transported the vehicle to the dealer. I am still waiting for the repair to be completed - it was scheduled for today."

"I received an error message that the fuel injection failed at least once. There was a recall so they replaced it but note it still doesnt smoothly engage the fuel injection. When you try to speed up quickly, it slowly engages and then all of a sudden jolts forward. There is a new recall in that which said they dont have a solution for yet and dealer said they wont replace it under the car registers a failure in the codes which it hasnt fine yet. It is still drivable its just annoying when you try to speed up quickly."

"Sometimes our display screen goes completely blank. Nothing comes up on the screen. Usually if we turn the car off and restart it, the issue is resolved. The ambient temperature thermostat also malfunctions, causing issues with the climate control. We first noticed this issue about four months ago."

"ALL sensors and systems reported a long list of error codes(30-40 different codes) On the highway, car suddenly ran slowly, very rough, as if 3 cylinders weren't firing. Drove it home very slowly. Many similar postings on youtube.. one thread said "remove, clean and tighten battery connections, let car stay disconnected for 5-10 minutes" THAT worked. At Honda dealer 6 months later, they updated software, as that was "due". Problem's not reappeared. Good thing an honest Honda technician posted his fix for the trouble. Apparently some dealers are unscrupulous and will charge for unrelated, unnecessary "fixes" that do nothing."

"More often than not when I use voice command to try to call someone it either says the person not recognized or pulls up the wrong information(often random numbers). It has happened since we purchased the car and is frankly very irritating, especially when I drive in other cars and use their voice commands for calls and have no problems accessing my phone book."
