2013 HONDA PILOT Complaints

THIS WILL BE THE 3RD TIME IN LESS THAN 80,000 MILES THAT I HAVE HAD TO HAVE THE BRAKE ROTORS AND PADS REPLACED DUE TO THE BRAKES EXCESSIVE STEERING SHAKE AT ANY SPEED. THIS CONDITION HAS TO BE DUE TO A STRUCTURAL PROBLEM WITH THE BRAKE HARDWARE MAKING IT BOTH COSTLY AND DANGEROUS. DEALERSHIP WANTS TO TAKE MY MONEY AND IGNORE THE PROBLEM.

DRIVERS SIDE SUN VISOR WILL NOT STAY UP. ONE TIME WHEN I PULLED DOWN GENTLY TO BLOCK THE SUN IT BECAME LOOSE AND NEVER WOULD STAY UP AGAIN. IN READING ON CAR FORUMS THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING ISSUE WITH MANY MODELS OF HONDA CARS. I BELIEVE THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED BY RECALL FOR REPAIRS.

PAINT CHIPPING FROM ROOF OF CAR. YOU CAN SEE THE GRAY PRIMER. HONDA REFUSES TO ACKNOWLEDGE PROBLEM. SAID MY CAR HAS TOO MANY MILES. IT HAS 60,000. IT IS WELL TAKEN CARE OF.

THE ROOF AND PART OF CAR ABOVE THE WINDSHIELD AND MOONROOF IS OXIDIZING AND IT LOOKS TERRIBLE. I KEEP READING IT'S BECAUSE OF THE POOR QUALITY PAINT USED ON CERTAIN HONDA. I HEARD OF A RECALL FOR OTHER HONDA MODELS AND YEARS AND OF COURSE MINE IS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. HONDA, I FEEL, NEEDS TO RECALL AND RE-PAINT THESE VEHICLES. I TAKE GOOD CARE OF MY PILOT--IT'S PARKED IN GARAGE, GETS WASHED AND WAXED REGULARLY AND AM THOROUGHLY DISGUSTED AT HOW IT LOOKS AND HONDA'S LACK OF EMPATHY.

WHILE DRIVING ON I65 NORTH OF BIRMINGHAM, AL AT 65-70 MPH WITH NO OTHER VEHICLES CLOSE BY, WE HEARD A LOUD POP AND THEN NOTICED WHAT SOUNDED LIKE AIR COMING INTO THE CABIN. WE PULLED BACK THE SUNROOF SHADE SLIGHTLY AND NOTICED SHATTERED GLASS. WE PULLED OVER TO FIND ABOUT A 4 INCH HOLD IN THE SUNROOF WITH SHATTERED GLASS ALL AROUND IT. WE BROKE OFF AS MUCH AS WE COULD SO OTHER VEHICLES WOULD NOT BE DAMAGED BY THE DEBRIS.

ENGINE MIL ILLUMINATED. CODE P3400 INDICATED THROUGH OBD. NO LOW OIL PRESSURE INDICATION PRIOR TO MIL, COULD LEAD TO ENGINE FAILURE. REPLACED BOTH FRONT AND REAR ROCKER ARM OIL SWITCHES.

THE SRS MODUAL IS DEFECTIVE SO I HAVE NON WORKING AIR BAGS AND THE LEFT SEAT BELT IS DEFECTIVE. HONDA SAYS THE WILL FIX THE SEAT BELT BOT NOT THE SRS MODUAL.
