Defect Description:
POWER TRAIN
Potential Consequences:
Warning signs pop up when it hits 65mph on the highway. It blinks, “transmission system problem” with warning sounds ever so often. I tried to take it to Jiffy Lube multiple times, and they could never find the problem. They checked the transmission fluid and it was okay. They ran diagnostic and nothing was found, yet, this message error appears here and there. I am not sure what else there to do but to report that it’s not safe.

Defect Description:
ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
While a stop light, the Idle Stop feature engaged as normal, however when the brake was released the engine failed to restart. This is not the first time this has happened, but this time following the instructions on display, place vehicle in park and press the Start/Stop button, didn't work. It was at night and I figured I would turn off the lights and radio to help. It took 4 or 5 attempts to get the vehicle to restart. This happens more frequently when idle stop is engaged short order, such as in a long line waiting for a left turn.

ENGINE
Potential Consequences:
I stopped at a red light and the idle stop function shut down like it should. When the light turned green, I let my foot off the brake and it stalled out. Some of the dummy lights came on and it stated that I needed "To start engine: brake + push" and shows the break pedal and the Start engine button on the dashboard. So I did. It did nothing. I had to turn the car off and try to restart it. I had to do this 3 times for it to finally start back up so I could drive off. This has happened to me a total of 6 times now. All but one time was at a red light, once being at a roundabout as I was slowing down for a car coming toward me. Today I had to restart it 4 times, open my car door, take my seatbelt off and close my door back before it finally started back up. I have taken it to the dealer once before and they told me it was because my battery was weak and would not make the connection when it went to start back up. They said they 'fixed' it to the best of their ability and just basically hoped it would not happen again. Well, it did. I just had my battery checked last week and it is fine. I have a physical video of it as it is happening. As soon as my car shut itself down "stalled out" I grabbed my phone and videoed it. I am keeping the video on my phone. This is NOT safe. If I can't move at all, it will not go into neutral or anything, so I would not be able to physically move the car into the emergency lane out of traffic or anything.

ENGINE
Potential Consequences:
Multiple times in the past year the car has stalled when at a complete stop. It's when the car idles down and then we try to go by stepping on the gas. The engine dies completely and we need to put the car in park and then restart the car. This is very dangerous when in traffic on the highway or starting on a green light or stop sign with cars behind us. We've talked to the dealer numerous times and they haven't had any solutions. We need this fixed but think Honda should be paying for it, not us.

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING
Potential Consequences:
On many occasions, when the vehicle is stopped (at a light or in gridlock), when I remove my foot from the brake to apply the gas, the engine stops and the vehicle shuts down all systems (audio, nav, etc). When this happens, for a very brief time (too short to get a photo) warning lights related to the collision and/or emergency braking systems flash. After those lights go away, the dashboard lights indicate that the vehicle is in neutral (not by my doing) and that I must press the brake, put the vehicle in park, and restart the vehicle. This process does not always work the first time and the delay of turning off and restarting the car, even when it does work, causes a dangerous situation in traffic. When this happens on a downward hill, my vehicle rolls forward as it “dies” and I am sometimes stuck in the middle of an intersection as I try to restart the vehicle as quickly as I can. When it happens in heavy stop and go freeway traffic, I’m often surrounded by vehicles traveling at high speeds. I’m terrified that my baby and toddler will be hurt in this vehicle. I find it egregious that Honda has not issued a fix, a recall, or any other option for owners of vehicles with such a dangerous flaw.

After those lights go away, the dashboard lights indicate that the vehicle is in neutral (not by my doing) and that I must press the brake, put the vehicle in park, and restart the vehicle. This process does not always work the first time and the delay of turning off and restarting the car, even when it does work, causes a dangerous situation in traffic. When this happens on a downward hill, my vehicle rolls forward as it “dies” and I am sometimes stuck in the middle of an intersection as I try to restart the vehicle as quickly as I can. When it happens in heavy stop and go freeway traffic, I’m often surrounded by vehicles traveling at high speeds. I’m terrified that my baby and toddler will be hurt in this vehicle. I find it egregious that Honda has not issued a fix, a recall, or any other option for owners of vehicles with such a dangerous flaw.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
On multiple occasions now my Pilot has completely shut down while the auto-idle is on and I have been unable to restart it quickly. My young children and I have been stuck in traffic multiple times unable to move or get out of the way of oncoming traffic due to this and most recently on 9/16/22 I was almost hit due to be unable to restart my vehicle. I typically keep the auto-idle off for this reason but if I forget to turn it off, it happens again. I purchased my car on 7/06/22 and this has happened 3 times (which is a very high percentage of the time the auto-idle is accidently left on). I have tried to take it into be serviced but it does not happen every time so they have been unable to assist. There are no lights on, messages or any indication when this happens, the engine just shuts completely down and takes a minute to allow you to put it into park and restart the engine by pressing the break and the start button. This is terrifying for me, my children and everyone else on the road that has almost hit my idle car. I am scared every time I get into this car and unsure what to do at this point.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
The car sometimes fails to restart on its own from a complete stop at a traffic light or stop sign with the Auto Start/Stop function engaged. Furthermore, on two recent occasions the car would not start at all after it was turned off to get gas. One of those times it sat for 40 minutes at the gas pump while waiting for a jump start (it eventually started on its own), and the other it had to be towed to the dealer. After the first incident, we were told there was nothing wrong with the battery and a month later, when the car had to be towed, we were told the battery was completely dead. The concern with the start/stop trouble has been reported to the dealer and we were told there was nothing they could see. There have been no warning lights, lamps or messages. The start/stop problem began approximately a year ago, and we have tried to turn that feature off when driving, due to the problems that occur, since we were told there wasn't a problem that could be seen. On the occasions we forget to take this step, it always struggles at a stoplight or intersection and if not caught in time, the car will stall out, sometimes taking 2-3 tries to restart. The vehicle is currently in the shop, awaiting a battery replacement as we have been told that is what is causing the start/stop issue.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
The auto-idle system causes the car to stall quite often and poses a major safety hazard. We bought the car brand-new in May 2018. The problem started happening approximately 2 years after buying the car. The car fails to restart when you lift the foot off the break and instead, stalls the car. My husband and I have had the car stall at red lights, at stop signs, and recently while we were in the left lane of a major highway in traffic. Just this past weekend, it stalled on me twice in less than 24 hours. It takes quite a bit of time to restart because you have to put the car in park and make sure it is completely shut down before trying to start it again, while also trying to remember to put on hazard lights. I did bring it to Lia Honda in Albany NY on Sept. 24, 2021, 3.5 years after buying the car, specifically for this issue. They could not recreate it in the shop. They suggested I needed a new battery and proceeded to install a new batter at a cost of approximately $500 (it is my understanding batteries should be replaced every 5 years typically). This helped for about 6 months but now the car is stalling quite often again. While they have a button to disable this system, it defaults to "on" every time you power the car off/on, and it is easy to forget to turn it off. This is a major safety issue as the cars behind me don't realize I have stalled. I realize this is a known issue as other Pilot owners have filed similar complaints, and I hope Honda fixes this issue because we paid a lot of money for this car and will have teenagers driving it soon. We are happy to have the car inspected further if necessary. Thank you.

This feature is dangerous and very frustrating to the point where I turn this feature off every time I get in the car now. This is happened both to me and to my 16-year-old son. Many times when it tries to reengage it has a hard time starting right back up. This is in addition to the two times it completely died.
