NHTSA Complaint #11208938 — 2016 HONDA PILOT

I HAVE A 2016 TOURING PILOT WITH JUST OVER 38,000 MILES. SINCE ABOUT 25,000 MILES I HAVE FELT THAT THERE WAS AN ODD HESITATION WITH THE AUTO-OFF FEATURE THAT I'D NOT NOTICED DURING THE INITIAL PERIOD OF OWNERSHIP. THE ISSUE ESCALATED TO THE POINT WHICH IT WOULD ACTUALLY STALL OUT AT AN INTERSECTION AND THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT TURN BACK ON FOR A FEW MINUTES. THE DEALERSHIP REPLACED THE BATTERY AND SAID THAT THEY COULD SEE THE ERROR AND THAT THERE WAS AN ISSUE CAUSED BY THE BATTERY. A FEW MONTHS LATER THE ISSUE STARTED TO HAPPEN AGAIN AND STALLED FOR MY WIFE AGAIN WITH OUR KIDS IN THE CAR AT A BUSY INTERSECTION. THE CAR WENT BACK INTO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY HAVE NOW HAD IT FOR CLOSE TO 6 WEEKS WITH LITTLE TO NO UPDATE AS TO WHAT IS GOING ON. THIS IS A HORRIBLY UNSAFE ISSUE AND I KNOW FOR A FACT THAT MANY PEOPLE ARE HAVING THE SAME ISSUE AS REFERENCED IN THIS BLOG: HTTPS://WWW.PILOTEERS.ORG/FORUMS/114-2016-THIRD-GENERATION-PILOT/157005-ELITE-SHUTS-OFF-STOP-LIGHT-5.HTML THE FACT THAT HONDA CAN NOT COME UP WITH A FIX FOR THE ISSUE IS A VERY SCARY THOUGHT. WE AS CONSUMERS NEED SOMEONE TO HELP HOLD HONDA ACCOUNTABLE TO PROVIDE A SAFE DRIVING EXPERIENCE FOR OUR FAMILIES.
