While driving my 2019 Honda Pilot at highway speeds 70 mph, the dashboard suddenly displayed a severe safety warning stating "Transmission Temp Too Hot." There was no prior warning, mechanical symptom, or heavy cargo towing to cause this. The sudden warning forced me to immediately navigate across multiple lanes of fast-moving traffic to pull onto the shoulder of the highway, creating an immediate and dangerous crash hazard. This is a severe mechanical failure that occurs without reason under standard driving conditions, heavily compromising vehicle reliability and occupant safety on the highway. The vehicle has been exclusively and regularly maintained at an authorized Honda dealership according to all factory recommendations. The sudden transmission overheating and subsequent safety hazard occurred despite flawless maintenance compliance, proving this is a severe manufacturing or chemical fluid defect and not a case of owner neglect.

During acceleration between 1000-2000 rpm when I back out of the driveway or slowly start to accelerate on the street I hear a knocking sound only at that specific rpm. When cruising and I release the gas I feel a heavy sluggish and quick decrease of speed instead of it smoothly decelerating and slowly cruising. I took it to Carmax where I bought it at 79,900 miles and they heard the distant knocking as well. Sent it to Honda to inspect for a second opinion they also heard the noise but want to tear the engine apart or lower the oil pan and inspect the connecting rods and bearings but they want me to pay out of pocket.

The car alarm goes off on its own,and the dashboard lights flash even when the car is turned off ,this continues until the battery dies and the car won’t start. I’ve taken it to the mechanic several times and no codes come up; I’ve replaced the battery with a new one twice.

The rear 2nd row passenger seatbelt alarm continues to go on when the seat belt is plugged in. I don’t feel safe having my children sit in that seat. I did go to the Honda dealership that I bought the car and they told me that I would have to pay for that part because it’s not recalled I am not paying for the part when I just bought the car brand new off the lot and we had nothing to do with the seatbelt going wrong.

My wife operates a 2020 Honda Pilot Touring, purchased new and currently with approximately 60,000 miles. The vehicle's automatic idle stop/start system intermittently shuts the engine off while stopped in traffic but fails to restart when the driver releases the brake and attempts to proceed. The driver must shift the vehicle into Park and manually restart the engine, leaving the vehicle unexpectedly immobilized in active traffic. The vehicle was previously brought to Atamian Honda in [XXX], in spring 2026 for this same defect. Honda performed a corrective repair, but the identical failure has returned approximately six months later. The driver now feels compelled to manually disable the automatic idle stop feature every time she starts the vehicle to avoid another failure. We believe this represents a serious, unresolved safety defect and are particularly concerned that the condition has recurred after a previous manufacturer-directed repair. We request that NHTSA document this repeated post-repair failure and consider it in its ongoing evaluation of Honda idle-stop restart safety issues.
