NHTSA Complaint #11527615 — 2019 HONDA PILOT

The Infotainment System in my 2019 Honda Pilot Touring has had problems with its display since September 2020 when it went dim/dark all by itself while driving. The unit would come back on at some point by itself. The unit would not acknowledge the controls being accessed by me. This unit includes the rear camera-a vital safety item of the vehicle. The below is the sequence of events to date. The infotainment center is still not functioning properly. 1. Sep 9 2020: Brought car to Honda due to a dark not functioning infotainment screen which includes the back-up camera. Honda replaced the audio unit (Display, Center). 2. Feb 27 - Mar 7 2023: Infotainment center cracking from speakers and dropping calls and sudden signal off. The crackling and dropping calls would proceed the system completely shutting down by providing a multitude of errors to include: Network Communication Lost: MOST Net Off; Radio unavailable; Anti Theft System: This system has lost power. Push and hold the power button for more than two seconds to enable the system; No audio connection for FM. Honda performed the campaign recall for the MOST Bus Network Connectors. 3. Mar 14 2023: Same issues from #2 above. Honda states they did everything from the recall for the MOST Bus Network Connectors. Honda states it is the AMP and replaces amp. 4. Apr 6 - May 31 2023. Same issues from #2 above. Honda state they did everything from the recall for the MOST Bus Network Connectors. Honda states it is the Control Unit, Navigator(A)/Infotainment. Honda replaces the control unit. 5. Jun 14 2023 to present. Same issues from #2 above. Honda rechecks every connection between the gauge control module and stereo amplifier. Honda shop learns there is a new service bulletin coming out in the next 4 weeks. They want to wait for that to assess. System still fails w/no camera when the unit powers off by itself.
