NHTSA Complaint #11041718 — 2014 HONDA PILOT

I MADE MY 3RD VISIT TO ANOTHER HONDA LOCATION ON 10/27/2017 AFTER HAVING ISSUES WITH THE VSA LIGHT AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT RANDOMLY FLASHING ON AND OFF IN MY 2014 HONDA PILOT. THE FIRST TIME I'D TAKEN IT IN, (ROUGHLY 08/2017), I WAS TOLD IT WAS AN 'INTERMITTENT FAILURE' WHICH THEY WERE REQUIRED TO ADVISE ME ACCORDING TO HONDA'S 'WORKFLOW' THAT MUST BE FOLLOWED BEFORE ADDITIONAL TROUBLESHOOTING IS PERFORMED. I WAS TOLD TO LEAVE AND CONTINUE DRIVING THE VEHICLE. SHORTLY FOLLOWING, I EXPERIENCED THE SAME ISSUE. I VISITED ANOTHER LOCATION (09/2017) AND WAS TOLD THAT THE SOFTWARE WAS OUTDATED AND CAUSING THE ISSUE. THE SOFTWARE UPDATE WAS PERFORMED, BUT THE ISSUE STILL PERSISTED. MY FINAL VISIT, I SPOKE WITH THE MANAGER ON 10/27/17, I WAS TOLD THE YAW RATE SENSOR WAS 'BAD' AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE FIRST TIME I NOTICED THE ISSUE, I WAS DRIVING ON A SIDE ROAD AND ALL OF THE DASH LIGHTS BEGAN FLASHING RANDOMLY (VSA/CHECK ENGINE). I PARKED THE CAR AND CALLED THE DEALERSHIP. THE 2ND TIME, I WAS DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE GOING ROUGHLY 65-70MPH WHEN THE ISSUE HAPPENED AND I BEGAN TO FEEL CHANGES IN THE ACCELERATION/BRAKING. I IMMEDIATELY MOVED TO GET IN A SLOW LANE TO AVOID BREAKING DOWN OR BEING HIT BY ANOTHER CAR FOLLOWING ME. THE LAST TIME FEW TIMES I HAVE NOTICED IT, THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN BOTH IN MOTION SEVERAL TIMES AND PARKED.
