2018 HONDA PILOT Complaints

My vehicle has been in the Honda Dealership (Honda of Fort Worth and Norm Reeves Honda) with no resolution to the engine failure issues I have had since purchasing my vehicle. Mainly in the heat of the summer if I was in traffic idling, stopped at a red light or in stop and go traffic my car would shut off and hesitate to restart. The collision mitigation system would show failed. Honda could never find a solution. The last time I had it in their shop they said I needed a new battery. I bought a new battery from them but the problem continued. I believe my car is part of the engine recall.

The contact owns a 2018 Honda Pilot. The contact stated that on several occasions while driving at various speeds, the vehicle lost power. Additionally, on other occasions while stopped at stop signs and or red lights, the accelerator pedal was depressed; however, the vehicle hesitated. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic where it was diagnosed and determined that either the fuel injector and or fuel pump needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The vehicle was then taken to a dealer however, the failure could not be duplicated because the independent mechanic had cleared the codes. The vehicle was towed to a dealer where it was diagnosed and determined that the fuel injectors needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired but the failure reoccurred several weeks later when the contact attempted to start the vehicle and the vehicle failed to start. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 92,000.

I received a recall notice from Honda regarding the Safety Recall of the fuel pump module in May 2024. My local dealer just informed me that they have no idea when they will receive the replacement modules and they are receiving about two units per month at random intervals. If this is indeed a safety recall, I believe Honda should be making these units available for existing customers ahead of producing units for new, unsold vehicles. Thank you.

THE VEHICLE WHEN IN MOTION SUDDENLY TURNS OFF BY ITSELF PUTING ME AND OTHER DRIVERS AROUND IN DANGER. THEN, WHEN DRIVING THE STEERING FEELS LIKE LOOSING CONTROL. AND I TOOK IT TO THE MECHANIC TO CHECK ON IT AND HE DETECTED A STEERING WHEEL PROBLEM AND THERE'S NO WARNING LIGHTS. ALSO, MY CAR FEELS LIKE THE GASOLINE DOESN'T FLOW PROPERLY. CAR LOOSES SPEED AND START SHAKING WHEN TRYING TO PUMP GAS WITH PEDALS. MY CAR HAS ONLY 100,000 MILES AND THIS CAR HAS GIVING ME PROBLEMS FROM THE BEGINNING. THE VISORS WERE SO HARD TO MOVE UP OR DOWN UNTIL THE DRIVER SIDE IS FULLU BROKEN AND TOO EXPENSIVE TO REPLACE. HONDAS ARE NOT NUMBER ONE CARS LIKE THEY USE TO BE.

Warning lights for the ACC, LKAS and FCW have been blinking everyday. One day they just started blinking. I took to dealership and they said it's $180 to diagnose issue. I have seen 100s of pist of different forums about the issue which means it is a known problem. As of the last 6 months or so these features do not work on the car.

I've brought the car to the Honda Dealer located at 2400 N State Rd 7 Hollywood FL 33021 for over a year I have complained that the car jumps and that there is a few recalls on my vehicle. I was told that the part isn't available and they can't fix it but did not offer any remedies to this issue. The car will shut off on me while I'm driving and it's very dangerous. I've mentioned this to them many times but they only try to convince me to buy another car and get me to trade in my car and pay a deposit.
