NHTSA Complaint #11487778 — 2017 HONDA PILOT

What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? Yes it is available for inspection upon request The start/stop idle feature doesnt work sometimes. The car is supposed to turn off when you come to a stop light or any stop at all. You put on your break and the car stops and then when you start to go the car turns back on and off you go. For about a year now this has been malfunctioning and my car just stalls. Twice now in the last 6 months this has happened where I have been stuck in traffic with cars yelling and honking there horns at me. How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? Countless times in the last year my life, my childrens life, and those drivers around me have been at risk. There isn't any warning before it happens and can happen at anytime. Twice I thought I would have to call the police to direct traffic and get my car towed but thank goodness after 5-10 minutes it ended up starting on its own. The problem also is when it stalls like this, you can get the car in neutral to move or anything. Your just stuck. Its so scary and unless I disable this feature every time I drive the car, I risk getting in an accident!! Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center? No it hasnt been reproduced. It is at the dealership right now because the second incident where it completely stopped for 10 minutes in traffic happened yesterday. Took it to the dealership 6 month after the 1st very dangerous incident and they said it was the fuel injector which I got replace and it didnt have any incidents for 6 month but as I stated it started back up Has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others? Yes, the dealership Were there any warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure, and when did they first appear? No
