We continue to experience stalling while driving our Honda Pilot exactly as described in the Recall. We took our vehicle to Honda, but because they were unable to duplicate our problem and this problem does not generate an error code, they sent us home without any repair. Honda has said they have limited parts to make the replacement, so they are holding parts at their HQ and not allocating any to dealers. So, we, like most other Honda Pilot owners, continue to have to drive vehicles that may be unsafe. When driving in traffic, our vehicle has lost power for several seconds, which can be dangerous if we are in a passing mode or needing power to maneuver safely. We ask the Traffic Safety Administration to engage with Honda to accelerate their processes to effect required repairs before we or others are injured. Thank you.

My 2018 Honda Pilot has a fuel injector recall. Per Honda, "Safety Consequence: An inoperable fuel pump could prevent an engine from starting, cause a vehicle to lose drive power, or stall while driving, increasing the risk of a crash or injury." - My car is hesitating with acceleration at low (20-25mph) along with (45-55mph). The RPMs do not stay steady and the car is hesitating to shift into gear. - I called Westbrook Honda, Westbrook, CT on [XXX] to inquire and was told I would know if the car was part of the recall because it will stall. - Unsatisfied, I took my car to Brandfon Honda, Branford, CT for diagnosis on [XXX] and was told by service that if it's an issue they will prioritize it since the part will not be available until Fall 2024. Brandfon Honda is advising 4 other recommendations to see if it will fix the problem versus addressing the fuel injector recall which points to what is the issue with the car (as advised by my independent auto shop) INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
