NHTSA Complaint #11430146 — 2019 HONDA PILOT

This has been happening for a while now, probably the past yet, but its happening more frequently now. I didn't think much of it until my husband noticed it while we were driving and started asking me about it and saying that could mean I have a transmission issue and need to get it looked at before my warranty is up since the car is relatively new and has less than 40,000 miles. My warranty is up to 80,000 miles. The date listed below is when my husband mentioned it. When accelerating, at low RPMs, usually between 1 and 2 rpm, the car hesitates accelerating. it lasts about 1 to 5 seconds. I initially noticed it at low speeds, but now it's doing the same thing at higher speeds, but always when it's a low rpms. It was sparsely happening, but now it's happening more frequently. Sometimes the hesitation is kinda jerking you a few times, but other times, its a longer hesitation and your car kinda makes a sound like it all of a sudden just decided it was going to kick into gear and start going again. This is a safety issue because if I'm pulling into traffic, changing lanes, crossing a road and my car hesitates or I can speed up fast enough when I should be able to, it could cause an accident. I'm taking it to get looks at by Honda Cars of Katy on 8/25/2021. They should be able to reproduce it since it happens quite frequently. The vehicle has not been inspected by anyone yet for this issue. There are no warning lights or messages on either.
