WHEELS
FOR THE PAST TWO WEEKS MY PILOT FELT LIKE IT WAS BOUNCING ODD. WE'VE ONLY OWNED IT FOR 5 MONTHS AND HAVE UNDER 5,000 MILES. WHILE MONITORING THE TIRE PRESSURE FOR TWO WEEKS, I'VE NOTICED THAT BOTH DRIVER SIDE FRONT AND REAR TIRES HAVE BEEN CONSIDERABLY LOW AND WE HAVEN'T ADDED ANY AIR SINCE. I FIGURED IT WAS BECAUSE OF HEAT/TIME OF DAY. MY LAST DRIVE AT 80 DEGREES AT SUNSET ENDED WITH BOTH DRIVER SIDE TIRES AT 33 PSI AND BOTH PASSENGER SIDE TIRES AROUND 35-37 PSI. THIS MORNING BOTH DRIVER SIDE TIRES WERE AT 33 PSI ON A COLD START AT ABOUT 60 DEGREES, ONCE I GOT ONTO THE SAME HIGHWAY AND LANES I HAVE BEEN DRIVING ON FOR THE PAST 2 WEEKS, I NOTICED THE MAN BEHIND ME WAVING HIS ARMS WILDLY. I CHECKED MY TIRE PRESSURE ON THE DASH AND NOTICED THE REAR DRIVER SIDE WAS SUDDENLY AT 24PSI, 20, 17, 10 AND I PULLED OVER TO CHANGE THE TIRE. WHEN I WENT TO INSPECT PRIOR TO REMOVING THE TIRE, YOU COULD AUDIBLY HEAR AIR SEEPING OUT. ON VISUAL INSPECTION THERE IS NO NAIL, NO PUNCTURE WOUND OR ANY EVIDENCE OF A CHANCE THAT A PUNCTURE HAPPENED AND THE OBJECT SHEERED OR CAME OUT ENTIRELY. THERE IS NO SIDEWALL DAMAGE, NO RIM DAMAGE OF ANY KIND. THE TIRE ITSELF IS A BRIDGESTONE DEULER H/P SPORT AS. THERE WAS NO DEBRIS IN THE ROAD

ENGINE
I HAVE A 2017 HONDA PILOT TOURING AWD (PURCHASED IN DEC 2017) AND EXPERIENCED THE AUTO-IDLE STOP STALL NUMEROUS TIMES. THE ISSUE OCCURS WHEN THE CAR IS STOPPED (AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT) AND THE AUTO ENGINE IDLE IS ON, WHEN I LIFT THE BRAKE TO PRESS THE ACCELERATOR, THE CAR SHUTS OFF THE ENGINE COMPLETELY, PUTS ITSELF IN NEUTRAL OR PARK, AND REQUIRES ME TO PUT THE CAR IN PARK (IF NOT THERE ALREADY) AND RESTART (PRESS BRAKE AND IGNITION BUTTON). I THEN STRUGGLE TO START THE CAR (ATTEMPTING MULTIPLE TIMES) AND RESTORE IT TO DRIVE. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE THAT OCCURS IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC. I CAN'T IMAGE STOPPING ON A RAILROAD TRACK FOR ANY SUSTAINED TIME. IT SHOULD BE IMMEDIATELY ADDRESSED WITH HONDA FOR RECALL ACTION.

AIR BAGS, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, SEAT BELTS
I HAVE NEVER BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT OTHER THAN BEING REAR ENDED AND IT WAS NOT MAJOR. MY AIR BAG LIGHT WOULD NOT GO OUT. MY SEAT BELT ALARMS WOULD NO LONGER WORK AND MY LOCKS WOULD NOT WORK AUTOMATICALLY. MY AIR BAG MODULE(SRS UNIT) NEEDED REPLACED. IT EFFECTED MY AIRBAGS, SEAT BELTS AND MY POWER LOCKS. THE DEALERSHIP DID NOT KNOW THAT THE LOCKS COULD EVEN BE EFFECTED BUT AS SOON AS IS WAS REPLACED THE LOCKS WORKED AS THEY DID PRIOR TO THE MALFUNCTION. I HAVE HAD A COUPLE MECHANICS TELL ME THAT THE MODULE SHOULD NOT EVER GO BAD UNLESS I HAVE BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING, FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: WARNINGS
THIS VEHICLE HAS BEEN NOTHING BUT PROBLEMS SINCE DAY 1. IT BEGAN WITH THE SUNROOF LEAKING AND CAUSING PUDDLES IN THE FRONT AND REAR PASSENGER FLOORS. THAT ISSUE REQUIRED 4 TRIPS TO THE DEALER. THE SPEAKERS THEN BEGAN POPPING AND THE RADIO AND DASH WOULD COMPLETELY SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING. FIXING THAT HAS BEEN ATTEMPTED 5 TIMES AND THE RADIO STILL CONTINUES TO HAVE PROBLEMS. I HAVE ALSO EXPERIENCED FALSE CRASH SENSING AND ONCE, THE AUTO BRAKING SYSTEM MADE ME COME TO ALMOST A COMPLETE STOP WHILE GOING ABOUT 45MPH AND NO ONE WAS EVEN AROUND ME. THIS CAR HAS BEEN A PROBLEM AND IS NOW BECOMING A HUGE SAFETY CONCERN AS MY WIFE WHO REGULARLY DRIVES IT IS NOW PREGNANT. SHE IS SCARED TO DRIVE IT AND HONDA IS UNWILLING TO HELP SOLVE THE ISSUES.

BLINKING CHECK ENGINE LIGHT, VAN-4 AND VSA LIGHT ARE ALL ON. I WENT TO GET A CODE AND IT WAS A MISFIRE. THIS HAPPENED THE PAST SUMMER AND I GOT IT REPLACED. HAPPENED AGAIN A FEW WEEKS LATER AND THEY FIXED IT. EVERY SINCE THEN IT HAPPENS FROM TIME TO TIME. I LOOKED THIS UP ON THE INTERNET AND IT SAID HONDA WAS FIXING THE ISSUE FREE OF CHARGE 2017 AND EARLIER. I DIDN'T PURCHASE MY VEHICLE UNTIL OCTOBER OF 2017. AND WAS TOLD NONE OF THIS.
