NHTSA Complaint #11407827 — 2017 HONDA PILOT

VEHICLE WILL NOT RESTART AFTER ENGINE AUTO IDLE ENGAGES. WHEN LIFTING FOOT OFF THE BRAKE TO BEGIN DRIVING CAR WILL NOT RESTART AND SAYS YOU MUST GO INTO PARK AND PRESS BRAKE. RADIO AND LIGHTS ARE STILL ON. EVEN AFTER SHIFTING INTO PARK AND PRESSING BRAKE IT WILL NOT START. AFTER REMOVING FOOT FROM BRAKE AND PRESSING STOP CAR WILL COMPLETELY TURN OFF. WE CAN THEN PRESS START AND CAR WILL USUALLY START WITHIN THREE OR FOUR TRIES. THIS HAS HAPPENED ABOUT 10 TIMES, WITH THE LAST BEING IN THE CENTER LANE OF A MAJOR FREEWAY. TRAFFIC CAME TO A STOP AND WHEN WE STARTED GOING AGAIN I WAS COMPLETELY STUCK IN THE MIDDLE LANE WITH CARS GOING ALL AROUND ME. HAS ALSO HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES AT STOPLIGHTS AND IN DRIVE THROUGHS. I TRY AND ALWAYS DISABLE THIS FEATURE BUT FORGET SOMETIMES.
