UNKNOWN OR OTHER
I WAS DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE NO WHERE NEAR ANY OTHER VEHICLES OR OVERPASSES WHEN I HEARD WHAT SOUNDED LIKE A GUN SHOT AND DEBRIS FLYING OFF THE HOOD OF MY PILOT. I PULLED OFF THE ROAD AND DISCOVERED THAT MY SUNROOF HAD EXPLODED. THE RUBBER SEAL WASN'T ATTACHED TO THE REAR ANY MORE AS IF IT HAD POPPED UPWARD.

SEATS
THE DRIVER SEAT METAL BRACKET BROKE WHILE DRIVING NORMALLY. I WAS SHOCKED TO LEARN ABOUT THIS. I HAVE BEEN DRIVING FOR MORE THAN 23 YEARS AND HAD NEVER HEARD ABOUT THIS SITUATION. IT IS LOOSE AND A VERY SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERNS. AS A CONSUMER I EXPECT THAT A CAR SEAT SHOULD LAST A LOT LONGER THAN THE CAR ITSELF ESPECIALLY THE DRIVER SEAT.

EXTERIOR LIGHTING
07 HONDA PILOT EX, THE CLIMATE CONTROL LIGHTING, RADIO BUTTON LIGHTS AND THE DOOR AJAR ON/OFF, CRUISE CONTROL AND SUNROOF BUTTON LIGHTS HAVE ALL GONE OUT. I BOUGHT THIS BRAND SPANKING NEW AND WITHIN 2-3 YEARS THESE LIGHTS WENT OUT. SEEMS TO BE SOMETHING THAT HONDA HASN'T MASTERED BECAUSE I SEE FORUMS THAT THIS IS AN ON GOING ISSUUE. I DON'T HAVE $300-400 TO TAKE IT TO THE SERVICE DEPT TO REPLACE BULBS. MAYBE A MANUFACTURE RECALL SHOULD BE SET IN PLACE.

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
OUR 2007 HONDA PILOT ON THREE SEPARATE OCCASIONS ACCELERATED OUT OF CONTROL WHEN APPLYING BREAKS TO SLOW DOWN AND STOP. I COULD NOT STOP THE VEHICLE. THE FIRST TIME THE CAR WENT THROUGH A STOP SIGN AND NEARLY CAUSED A SERIOUS ACCIDENT. THE THIRD TIME I HAD THE PRESENCE OF MIND TO SLIP THE CAR INTO NEUTRAL WHEN THE CAR ACCELERATED. AS I HAD THE BRAKES ON THE CAR IMMEDIATELY STOPPED AS IT SHOULD, BUT THE ENGINE RPM INCREASED SIGNIFICANTLY FOR A COUPLE SECONDS AND THEN RETURNED TO NORMAL IDLE RPM. THIS ESTABLISHES THIS PROBLEM AS AN ENGINE ACCELERATION ISSUE AND NOT A BRAKING PROBLEM. OF COURSE BEING AN INTERMITTENT PROBLEM THEY COULD FIND NOTHING WRONG. I SEE BOTH THE HONDA PILOT AND THE ODESSEY HAVE A HISTORY OF THIS TYPE OF PROBLEM. HONDA IS REFUSING TO ACKNOWLEDGE THIS AS A PROBLEM AND IS REFUSING TO DEAL WITH IT. SOMEONE WILL GET KILLED WITH THIS PROBLEM IF THEY HAVEN'T ALREADY.

TAKATA RECALL / PROPELLANT WAFERS I RECEIVED A SAFETY RECALL FROM HONDA IN JUNE, 2016, REGARDING MY 2007 PILOT. I PROMPTLY CALLED THE DEALERSHIP, IN JUNE 2016, TO SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT. I WAS NOTIFIED THAT I COULD NOT MAKE AN APPOINTMENT AND THEY WOULD CALL ME. THAT WAS 9 MONTHS AGO. ACCORDING TO THE RECALL NOTICE, THE DEFINITION OF REASONABLE PERIOD OF TIME IS 60 DAYS. THE NOTICE SAYS HONDA SUGGESTS THAT I AVOID HAVING A PASSENGER SIT IN THE FRONT PASSENGER'S SEAT. THAT IS NOT A REASONABLE SUGGESTION FOR NEARLY A YEAR AND COUNTING.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
RANDOM MISFIRE ON ALL 6 CYLINDERS DESPITE ROUTINE MAINTENANCE (COIL PACK REPLACEMENT AND NEW SPARK PLUGS), VEHICLE STABILITY CONTROL LIGHT; I HAVE ONLY 112K MILES ON THE CAR. THESE ARE PERSISTENT ISSUES ON VEHICLES HONDA J-SERIES ENGINES, YET MY YEAR WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL AND SERVICE, PARTS, AND COSTS ASSOCIATED IS NOT COVERED BY THE DEALER WHILE OTHER YEARS ARE. THE MISFIRE ISSUES CONTINUE TO REOCCUR. I HAD A CERTIFIED MECHANIC LOOK AT THE VEHICLE AND NOW THE VSA LIGHT COMES ON. I WOULD LIKE THE CAR REPAIRED BY HONDA AND MY WARRANTY AND POWERTRAIN WARRANTY EXTENDED, AS WELL, IF THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE THAT OTHER VEHICLES WERE REPAIRED BY HONDA.

I CALLED SOUTH HILLS HONDA, 3663 WASHINGTON RD, MCMURRAY, PA 15317 ON OCTOBER 12TH, 2016 FOR PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG REPLACEMENT AND IT HAS BEEN OVER 2 MONTHS WITH NO CALL BACK INDICATING THIS PART IS AVAILABLE FOR REPLACEMENT. HONDA KNEW THAT THIS PART WOULD NEED REPLACED WHEN THEY REPLACED THE SAME AIR BAG IN THE DRIVERS SIDE. WHEN I HAD DRIVERS SIDE REPLACED SHH MADE WE WAIT UNTIL I THREATENED TO CONTACT HONDA MOTOR COMPANY AS TO MY HAVING TO WAIT FOR TWO PLUS HOURS ON A SCHEDULED 15 MINUTE REPAIR. NOW HONDA AND SHH ARE REQUESTING I KEEP THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT UNOCCUPIED WHILE I WAIT FOR THIS REPAIR, EXCEPT THEY ARE NOT BEING RESPONSIBLE TO GET THIS DONE IN A TIMELY MANNER. *TR

WE MADE AN APPOINTMENT IN AUGUST WITH THE BOB ROHRMAN HONDA IN LAFAYETTE, IN TO REPLACE THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG. AT THAT TIME, THEY TOLD US THAT THE PART WAS NOT AVAILABLE, BUT THAT THEY WOULD CALL US TO LET US KNOW WHEN IT WAS AND TO MAKE ARRANGEMENTS FOR THE REPAIR. FOUR MONTHS LATER, WE HAD HEARD NOTHING. MY WIFE CALLED TODAY AND DISCOVERED THAT THEY HAD THE PART BUT DID NOT CALL US. HOW COULD SUCH AN IMPORTANT SAFETY ISSUE BE DISREGARDED BY THE DEALER?
