2005 HONDA PILOT Complaints

VSA SYSTEM ACTIVATES BRAKES WITHOUT ANY INPUT FROM DRIVER UNDER NORMAL DRIVING CIRCUMSTANCES. VSA LIGHT CAME ON, CAR BRAKED ON ITS OWN ON HIGHWAY AT 65MPH, CAR PULLED TO THE RIGHT; SAME THING HAPPENED DURING GENTLE LEFT TURN AT 15MPH. I BELIEVE THIS TO BE A DEFECTIVE YAW RATE SENSOR. MY VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN RECALL IN 2013, #13V092000. LOCAL DEALER REPLACED BATTERY STATING THAT FAILING A LOAD TEST COULD CAUSE VSA CODE. PROBLEM HAPPENED AGAIN, NOW LOCAL DEALERSHIP FOUND YAW RATE SENSOR ERROR CODE.

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.

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.

2005 HONDA PILOT. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO LOW BEAM HEADLIGHT ISSUE. *LD THE CONSUMER STATED THE VEHICLE WAS DIAGNOSED AS HAVING A "POOR CONNECTION AT THE WIRE HARNESS RUNNING UP COLUMN TO SWITCH". THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. *JS

TAKATA RECALL: I RECEIVED A RECALL FOR ONE AIRBAG. MY AUTOMOBILE IS IN FLORIDA. HONDA PILOT. RUPTURES ARE FAR MORE LIKELY IN INFLATORS IN VEHICLES THAT HAVE SPENT SIGNIFICANT PERIODS OF TIME IN AREAS OF HIGH ABSOLUTE HUMIDITY'PARTICULARLY FLORIDA. WHY WAS ONLY ONE FRONT AIRBAG RECALLED? NOW YOUR WEBSITE SHOWS NO RECALLS FOR THIS CAR. I AM WORRIED ABOUT DRIVING IT.

STRUCTURAL FAILURE OF BOTH REAR SUSPENSION SUB FRAME MOUNTS. WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE, THE ABS, AWD, TRACTION CONTROL, AND BRAKE LIGHTS ALL CAME ON. I CONNECTED MY CODE READER AND IT INDICATED THAT THE LEFT AND RIGHT WHEEL SPEED SENSORS HAD AN OPEN CIRCUIT. UPON VISUAL INSPECTION OF THE REAR WHEEL SPEED SENSORS, WIRES, AND CONNECTORS, I DISCOVERED THAT THE REAR TWO SUB FRAME MOUNTS HAD SEPARATED FROM THE CHASSIS, CAUSING THE REAR PORTION OF THE SUB FRAME ASSEMBLY TO DROP 5-6 INCHES, WHICH RESULTED IN THE REAR WHEEL SPEED SENSOR WIRES GETTING PULLED FROM THEIR CONNECTORS. THE REAR PORTION OF THE SUB FRAM IS NOW RESTING ON THE EXHAUST PIPE.

HONDA PERFORMED A VSA RECALL BUT TODAY WHEN I RECEIVED THE VEHICLE FROM HONDA DEALERSHIP AFTER SERVICE, I RECEIVED THE VEHICLE WITH VSA WARNING LIGHT. I NEVER HAD THAT WARNING LIGHT. THE DEFECT OCCURED IN HONDA SERVICE CENTRE. THEY WERE NOT TAKING RESPONSIBILITY. AFTER GREAT PURSUATION THEY TOLD THAT THEY WILL INVESTIGATE AND I WILL HAVE TO PAY FOR REPAIRS. AFTER INVESTIGATION THEY INFORMED THAT 3 TPMS SENSORS WERE REQUIRED. I AGREED TO DO THE REPAIRS. AT THE END OF THE DAY THEY STILL RETURNED THE VEHICLE WITH VSA LIGHT NOW ASKING TO REPLACE ABS MODULATOR AT A COST OF $1528.03 PLUS TAXES. I UNDERSTAND THAT THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH HONDA'S VSA SYSTEM AND HONDA FELL SHORT OF THE DESIRED CORRECTIVE ACTION IN THE 2013 CLASS ACTION SUITE. IT IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE AND HONDA SHOULD DO A RECALL TO COMPLETED RECTIFY THE DEFECT. REALLY NEED YOUR HELP. INTERNET FORUMS ARE FLOODED WITH MANY PEOPLE FACING SIMILAR PROBLEMS. I HAVE NECESSARY PAPER WORK FROM HONDA DEALERSHIP AND THE SAME CAN BE FURNISHED ON DEMAND
