VISIBILITY/WIPER
MY SUNROON EXPLODED ON THE FREEWAY (INTERSTATE 575 GOING 65 MPH + )- I HAVE HAD THE CAR FOR 6 MONTHS (BRAND NEW). NO ACCIDENT OCCURRED DUE TO IT - BUT WAS DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY AND IT EXPLODED. 1/3 OF THE GLASS WENT INTO THE CAR AND 2/3'S OF THE GLASS FELL BEHIND AND SCRATCHED THE TOP OF MY CAR. TALKED TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID IT MUST HAVE HAD AN CRACK ALREADY IN IT AND NOTICED SCRATCHES ON THE ROOF. IF THIS EVER GETS RECALLED - I WOULD LIKE TO BE REIMBURSED. THE COST FOR REPAIR IS OVER $600

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
ON APRIL 4, 2018, I IDLED INTO NARROW DRIVEWAY AND COASTED LEFT TO PARK IN PARKING SPOT. UPON TRANSITIONING FROM GAS PEDAL TO BRAKE, THE VEHICLE ACCELERATED FORWARD AT FULL FORCE PULVERIZING THE CEMENT PARKING BLOCK, JUMPING THE CURB AND LANDING ON TOP OF THE HEDGEROW BEYOND THE CURB. THE ENGINE WAS REVVING AND THE BRAKE WAS INEFFECTIVE IN STOPPING THE VEHICLE. THE FRONT TIRES WERE IN THE HEDGES UP OFF OF THE GROUND WHILE THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE REMAINED IN THE PARKING SPACE. I TURNED OFF THE CAR. AFTER COMPOSING MYSELF I REVERSED THE CAR BACK DOWN INTO THE PARKING LOT. I WAS ALONE IN THE VEHICLE AT THE TIME. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THIS VEHICLE HAD AN ACCELERATION ISSUE WHILE ATTEMPTING TO TRANSITION FROM THE GAS PEDAL TO THE BRAKE. THE FIRST TIME 3 PEOPLE WERE IN THE VEHICLE AND THE INCIDENT RESULTED IN AN ACCIDENT WHEREBY WE REAR-ENDED ANOTHER VEHICLE CAUSING SIGNIFICANT DAMAGE. POLICE WERE CALLED TO THE SCENE AND AN ACCIDENT REPORT WAS RECORDED ON JUNE 17, 2017 IN SPRINGFIELD TWP. NJ.

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, STEERING
FAULTY ELECTRICAL ISSUE. CAR WILL JUST CUT OFF AND GO DEAD ESPECIALLY WHEN IT RAINS. THIS WAS REPORTED TO HONDA AS A SAFETY CONCERN BUT NO ONE EVER FOLLOWED UP WITH THE COMPLAINT. THIS SHOULD HAVE BEEN A RECALL. CAR WILL JUST CUT OFF AND STEERING WHEEL LOCKS. THIS OCCURS AT ANY SPEED UNEXPECTLY WITHOUT WARNING. OCCURS WHILE CAR IS IN MOTION WITHOUT WARNING. WORSENS WITH HEAVY RAIN. THIS WAS REPORTED 10 YEARS AGO AND EVEN. AGAIN ABOUT 8 YEARS AGO WITH NO RESPONSE FROM HONDA. OCCURRED AGAIN TODAY.

POWER TRAIN
OIL LEAKING UNDERNEATH CAR. THIS SHOWS UP AS A PUDDLE IN MY GARAGE - IT'S A SLOW LEAK. I THINK IT'S PROBABLY THE SAME ISSUE AS WHAT'S HAPPENING WITH THE OTHER 2016 HONDA PILOTS AND THE SEAL ON THE OIL CONTAINER, BUT MY SPECIFIC CAR HASN'T BEEN FLAGGED.

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC)
DRIVING 65 MPH BRAKES APPLIED BY THEMSELVES, VEHICLE SWERVED AND ALMOST LOST CONTROL VSA LIGHT CAME ON. TOOK IT TO DEALER ON JAN. 17/18 . VSA NEEDED REPLACED. REPAIR DONE ON 3/6/18, WE DID NOT DRIVE UNTIL REPAIR DONE. THEN ON 3/31/18 IT OCCURRED AGAIN, SAME PROBLEM, BRAKES APPLIED BY THEMSELVES AND VEHICLE SWERVED AND AGAIN A STRUGGLE TO CONTROL IT. CALLED DEALER, THEY WILL HAVE TO DO A DIAGNOSTIC TO DETERMINE IF THE PROBLEM IS UNDER WARRANTY? THIS IS SAFETY ISSUE FOR WHICH I HAVE CONTACTED HONDA AMERICA AND THEY DO NOT BELIEVE IT IS AN ISSUE THAT THEY NEED TO ADDRESS. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE, I DO NOT BELIEVE IT WAS PROPERLY ADDRESS IN THE HONDA RECALL OF 2013.
