ENGINE
Potential Consequences:
The pilot turns the engine off while idling to save fuel. Twice this week when I have been stopped at stop lights it becomes unresponsive and I am unable to get the car back into gear. Attempts to turn the car on and off and to restart the car don't work. Both times I was only able to get it started after opening the drivers door... it took at least 1 minute each time. But I am very worried about it causing an accident. I have realized that I can turn this feature off, but it defaults to it being on everytime you start it again.

I am writing to report that I believe there is a problem with the start/stop function of my 2019 Honda Pilot. My vehicle has failed to restart from a complete stop (three different times) when the automatic idle-stop feature is engaged. I have taken the car to a Honda dealership and they are unable to replicate the problem/can not find the problem. I have read that this is already an open investigation-- I just wanted to provide my information to add to the report.

Defect Description:
ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
When vehicle was at a stop, then car turned off via the auto stop feature and did not turn back on its own. This happened twice. The first time it took a few minutes for me to be able to start the car. It kept shifting the transmission to neutral on its own, then I would shift it to park and when I pressed the start button it went back to neutral. This happened about 10 times on a row before I was able to restart the car. The second time I was able to restart it immediately.

Defect Description:
ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
In heavy traffic at the airport, when I was slowing down and stopping the Automatic Start/Stop functionality caused the vehicle to stall. The vehicle then went into neutral on it's own. I put the vehicle in park and it would not start (As if the vehicle had a dead battery or alternator issue). I charged the battery and it still would not start. I have read several other forums on this MY and other Honda Pilot's where the vehicle will stall at intersections/stopping points and refuse to start despite several efforts. I see this as a serious safety issue if in heavy traffic on a free way or working to clear an intersection. I believe this issue needs addressed. Honda also states that it can not turn off the Auto Start/Stop feature.

Potential Consequences:
Several times since 2019 while driving on not straight roads(slight curves either left or right), the Automatic Emergency Braking would activate, First I would get a big bold BRAKE in Red letters on the Display. I would be looking around, no cars are coming, I'm in the correct lane, not speeding and sometimes the car would actually start applying the brake(s) when there is absolutely no reason to apply the brakes. This has happened several times while we have driven the vehicle either on a 5 to 6 hour trip and maybe has occurred a total of 5 times since we have owned the vehicle
