2007 HONDA PILOT Power Train Problems

Car would not respond during normal operation, was in gear but would not accelerate. After I was pushed to the side of the road, I restarted the engine. And was able to drive a block away to my home at a very reduced speed. It will now only run at a very low speed, therefore inoperable.

I experienced a sudden unintended acceleration while coming to a full stop at a traffic light. The vehicle kept accelerating around 5k RPM on it's own without pressing the gas pedal. I was able to stop the vehicle by engaging the emergency brake. I was very close to cause an accident today. My mechanic said there's no engine code and can't find anything wrong.

I WAS A DRIVING DOWN A ROAD AT 35 MILES AN HOUR AND I NOTICED THAT THE D INDICATOR STARTED BLINKING. SOON AFTER THAT MY PILOT LOST AL POWER AND IT STARTED TO VIBRATE VIOLENTLY . I PULLED OVER BECAUSE I WAS HOLDING UP TRAFFIC AND I WAS ABLE TO GET IT HOME BECAUSE FORTUNATELY I WAS ONLY BLOCKS AWAY.

THE TRANSMISSION IN MY HONDA PILOT BROKE AT 100K MILES. THE SAME THING HAPPENED TO MY 2002 HONDA ODYSSEY AND HONDA COVERED THE REPAIR BECAUSE THEY KNEW THAT THERE WERE DEFECTS. WELL THE SAME DEFECTS CAUSED THE PILOT'S TRANSMISSION TO BECOME FULLY INOPERABLE. BUT THIS TIME HONDA WILL NOT COVER IT. PLEASE NOTE THAT THE PILOT AND ODYSSEY ARE MADE ON THE SAME PLATFORM AND HAVE THE SAME PARTS. HONDA KNOWS THEY HAVE A FAULTY TRANSMISSION AND WON'T EXTEND THE WARRANTY AS THEY HAVE IN THE PAST. *TR
