2016 HONDA PILOT Electrical System Problems

WHEN STARTING MY CAR WARNING ON DASHBOARD GOES ON 'KEYLESS STARTING SYSTEM PROBLEM'. I'VE FIXED IT TWICE ALREADY, BUT FROM WHAT I'VE SEEN ONLINE IT COMES BACK.

I'M GETTING KEYLESS START SYSTEM PROBLEM WHEN I GOOGLED IT APPEARS THERE ARE LOT OF PEOPLE HAVING THIS PROBLEM. I AM NOT WHY HONDA IS RECALLING THIS ISSUE PLEASE REVIEW THIS ISSUE. THANK YOU ISMAIL

OUR 3 YEAR OLD CAR AT ABOUT 28,000 MILES STARTED DISPLAYING THE WARNING MESSAGE "KEYLESS START SYSTEM PROBLEM" NEARLY ALMOST EVERY TIME IT IS STARTED. (NOTE, THIS PROBLEM DEVELOPED THE MONTH AFTER IT'S WARRANTY EXPIRED...) WHEN THE MESSAGE FIRST DISPLAYED WE TOOK IT TO THE DEALER, THEY COULD NOT FIND ANY PROBLEM WITH THE STARTING SYSTEM, ONLY THAT OUR ELECTRONICS SYSTEM NEEDED AN UPDATE. WITH THE UPDATE, THE MESSAGE DISAPPEARED FOR A FEW WEEKS, BUT HAS NOW RETURNED AND IS APPEARING NEARLY EVERY TIME WE START THE CAR. THIS HAPPENS REGARDLESS OF WHETHER MINE OR MY WIFE'S KEY IS USED, AND CHANGING THE BATTERY IN THE KEYS HAS NOT CHANGED ANYTHING EITHER. WE HAVE NEVER HAD AN ACTUAL ISSUE WITH STARTING THE CAR, IT'S JUST THAT WE NOW HAVE TO LIVE WITH THIS CONSTANT WARNING LIGHT. IN LOOKING ONLINE, THERE ARE MULTIPLE FORUMS DEDICATED TO THIS EXACT ISSUE FOR 2016...

KEYLESS REMOTE SYSTEM PROBLEM. NOTICED THIS PROBLEM AFTER REACHING 36,000 MILES

THE TPMS SYSTEM ISN'T MONITORING THE WHEELS SENSORS. THE SENSORS WERE CHECK AND ARE GOOD. THE PROBLEM IS THAT TPMS SYSTEM THAT NOT APPEAR IN THE CONTROL PANEL TO RESET THIS. THE LIGHT OF TPMS SYSTEM IS ON ALL THE TIME. THIS OCCURED TO 37,000 MILLES APROX.

ERROR MESSAGE 'KEYLESS START SYSTEM PROBLEM' THIS RECENTLY START HAPPENING, I HAVE RECENTLY BROUGHT IT IN TO THE DEALER AND THEY RAN A DIAGNOSIS AND FOUND NO REAL ERROR SO THEY HAVE RESET THE IGNITION SWITCH BUT NOW IT'S BACK ON.

THE KEYLESS START SYSTEM APPEARS TO BE FAULTY. THE VEHICLE HAS BEGUN TO INTERMITTENTLY, BUT INCREASINGLY, SHOW A KEYLESS START ERROR THAT PREVENTS THE VEHICLE FROM BEING STARTED WITH THE STARTER BUTTON. MULTIPLE ATTEMPTS ARE SOMETIMES NECESSARY TO GET THE VEHICLE TO START. A CRITICAL SYSTEM SUCH AS THIS SHOULD NOT FAIL IN THIS FASHION, COMPLETELY DISABLING THE VEHICLE, GIVEN ITS CURRENT MILEAGE OF 44,610.

THE FIRST INCIDENT WAS ON OCT 7, 2018. WE WERE AT A STOP LIGHT WITH THE ENGINE IDLE OPTION ENABLED. WHEN THE LIGHT TURNED GREEN AND THE BRAKE WAS RELEASED, THE VEHICLE SHOULD HAVE STARTED BACK UP, BUT INSTEAD, IT STALLED. AFTER THE 2ND TIME IT OCCURRED, WE STARTED TO DISABLE THE ENGINE IDLE FEATURE AS SOON AS WE START THE CAR. WE HAVE FORGOTTEN A FEW TIMES AND THE VEHICLE STALLING HAS HAPPENED AT LEAST 3 ADDITIONAL TIMES. ALL BEING AT RED LIGHTS WITH THE BRAKE DEPRESSED. WHEN THE FOOT IS REMOVED FROM THE BRAKE, THE VEHICLE JERKS SLIGHTLY AND THEN STALLS. ONCE ON NOV. 1, 2018 AND AGAIN MOST RECENTLY ON JAN. 6, 2018. LUCKILY, NO ONE HAS BEEN INJURED YET. IT HAS BEEN SERVICED REGULARLY AT THE DEALERSHIP DIRECTLY AND RECEIVED ALL MAINTENANCE RECOMMENDED. THE MOST RECENT SERVICE, THEY WERE UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE ERROR OR IDENTIFY...

THE HONDA PILOT 2016 KEEPS SAYING REMOTE KEY LESS START SYSTEM, THE DEALER IS NOT ABLE TO FIX IT ,THEY DONT KNOW WHATS WRONG ,IT IS GOING ON FOR MORE THAN 5 MONTHS ,THIS HAPPENS WHEN YOU TRY TO START THE CAR UP

I WAS DRIVING IN STOP AND GO TRAFFIC ON A FREEWAY, MY FOOT WAS ON THE BRAKE AND CAR WAS IN DRIVE, WHEN I TOOK MY FOOT OFF BREAK AND PUSHED GAS PEDAL THE CAR WOULD NOT GO. I TRIED TO PUT IT IN PARK AND IT WOULD NOT GO, I TRIED TO TURN OFF CAR AND IT WOULDN'T TURN OFF. THE MESSAGE ON THE DASHBOARD SAID TO PUSH BRAKE AND TURN ON CAR (SAME MESSAGE AS WHEN I REMOTE START CAR) AFTER 2 SOLID MINUTES, THE CAR FINALLY DROVE. THE PROBLEM SEEMS TO BE IMPACTED BY THE ECON MODE WHICH SHUTS OFF ENGINE WHEN BRAKE PEDAL IS FULLY ENGAGED. YOU ARE ABLE TO TURN THIS MODE OFF ON THE GEAR SHIFT BUT HAVE TO DO IT EVERY TIME YOU START THE CAR.

WHEN STARTING CAR, KEYLESS START PROBLEM COMES UP ON DASH. CAR STARTS FINE, EVERYTHING WORKS. BUT WARNING REMAINS UNTIL CAR IS SHUT OFF. TAKEN TO DEALER SEVERAL TIMES, REPLACED BATTERIES AT THE DEALER. THEY HAVE NO ANSWERS. EVEN MADE SURE MY PURSE OR PHONE WERE NOT THE ISSUE. AT A LOSS. PROBLEM STARTED IN NOVEMBER. ALMOST 38,000 MILES ON IT. SEEMS LIKE THIS IS THE MAGIC NUMBER ACCORDING TO OTHER COMPLAINTS I HAVE READ. THE REMOTE START DOES NOT ALWAYS WORK. TRIED IT AT A CLOSE PROXIMITY AND IT WORKED BUT THE WARNING CAME UP AS KEYLESS START SYSTEM PROBLEM. IT NEVER DID THAT BEFORE. AGAIN, EVERYTHING SEEMS TO WORK FINE, THERE IS SOMETHING WRONG NONE THE LESS.

KEYLESS START SYSTEM ERROR APPEARS RANDOMLY AND THE WALK AWAY LOCK FEATURE NO LONGER WORKS. IT HAPPENS IN ALL TYPES OF WEATHER WITH BOTH KEY FOBS. BATTERIES WERE ALSO CHANGED IN THE KEY FOB. SEEMS LIKE A COMMON ISSUE WITH NO CLEAR ANSWER WHY

I HAD TWO BIG ISSUES (SOME SMALL ISSUES AS WELL) FOR MY 2016 HONDA PILOT. FIRST IS THE PAINT ISSUE, THE PAINT ON THE DOOR WAS OFF AND THE DOORS WERE RUSTED PRETTY BAD. I SPENT A LOT TO TIME GO BACK AND FORTH WITH THE DEALERSHIP, BOTH OF US WERE TIRED OF THIS ISSUE. ANOTHER ISSUE JUST HAPPENED TO ME TODAY, "KEYLESS START SYSTEM PROBLEM" SHOWED UP TODAY, THE WALK AWAY AUTO-LOCK FEATURE DOES NOT WORK ANYMORE, AFTER COUPLE OF DRIVES, THE ERROR MESSAGE GOES AWAY, BUT THE WALK AWAY FEATURE STILL DOES NOT WORK. I HAVE SEARCHED ONLINE AND I BELIEVE A LOT OF OWNERS HAVE THIS ISSUE. MY CAR JUST WENT OUT OF WARRANTY AT ABOUT 38K MILES, AND I SAW ONLINE A LOT OF OWNERS SAW THIS MESSAGE AROUND THIS MILEAGE. I HAVE BEEN A LONG TIME HONDA OWNER, BUT THIS NEW PILOT MAKES ME VERY...

MY VEHICLE WITHOUT WARNING WOULD NOT START AFTER GETTING HOME AND PARKED IN THE GARAGE. AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS THE PANEL STATES AND IGNITION SYSTEM ERROR. ALL OF THE LIGHTS AND OTHER FUNCTIONS WORK WELL BUT IT WILL NOT START WHILE PHYSICALLY IN THE VEHICLE OR WITH THE REMOTE. IT MAKES A CONTINUOUS CLICKING SOUND ALL OF THE LIGHTS FLASH ON THE VEHICLE BUT NOTHING MORE.

KEYLESS STARTER SYSTEM ERROR MESSAGE AND IT NO LONGER AUTO LOCKS.

KEYLESS START SYSTEM PROBLEM AND AUTOMATIC LOCK DOESN'T WORK WHEN LEAVI THE CAR.

VEHICLE TURNS OFF COMPLETELY WHEN AUTO OFF FEATURE ENGAGES WHILE IN A STOPPED CONDITION. ON TWO OCCASIONS, VEHICLE REFUSED TO RESTART FOR SEVERAL MINUTES. THE FIRST TIME, THE VEHICLE RESTARTED AFTER 2-3 MINUTES, THE SECOND TIME IT HAPPENED, CAR WOULD NOT RESTART UNTIL 10-15 MIN AFTER THE OCCURRENCE. DURING BOTH OCCURRENCES, I WAS IN A STOP CONDITION WITH FOOT ON THE BRAKE, VEHICLE IN DRIVE. DEALER SAYS BATTERY TESTS FINE AND CANNOT REPLICATE THE ISSUE, BUT I KNOW THERE ARE OTHERS EXPERIENCING SAME PROBLEM. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE. ONLY OUT OF SHEAR LUCK, IT HAPPENED TO ME WHILE AT A RESIDENTIAL GATE KEY PAD PUNCHING IN THE CODE, AND THEN TODAY WHILE IN THE DRIVE THRU OF A FAST FOOD PLACE. IF THIS WOULD HAPPEN ON A BUSY STREET, AT A BUSY INTERSECTION, WHILE SITTING IN STANDSTILL TRAFFIC ON INTERSTATE, ETC, IT COULD BE EXTREMELY DANGEROUS.

INDICATOR LIGHT: KEYLESS START PROBLEM I WAS TOLD THE START SWITCH NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. $300. LESS THAN 50,000 MILES.

POWER STEERING, EMISSIONS, TRAILER STABILITY, HILL ASSIST WARNING INDICATION DISPLAYED ON DASH. ALL OF THEM AT THE SAME TIME ONE RIGHT AFTER THE OTHER. I COULDN'T DRIVE THE CAR BECAUSE OF ALL OF THESE WARNINGS.

AUTO STOP MALFUNCTION FIRST YEAR OF OWNING THE PILOT ELITE, THE AUTO STOP FUNCTION WORKED AND WOULD RESTART AFTER COMING TO A STOP. BY THE SECOND YEAR, AFTER COMING TO A STOP IN CITY TRAFFIC AND ENGINE IS SUPPOSED TO COME BACK ON, IT STALLS AND SHUTS OFF AND NEEDS TO BE SHIFTED TO NEUTRAL AND THEN RESTART ENGINE. HAVE TAKEN THE CAR FOR SERVICES SINCE HAVING THIS ISSUE AND REPORTING THE ISSUE TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY ARE UNABLE TO FIX THE ISSUE OR REPLICATE THE PROBLEM. NOW INTO YEAR 3 OF OWNERSHIP THE AUTO STOP FUNCTION HAS GOTTEN WORSE BECAUSE NOW WHEN IT SHUTS OFF AFTER AUTO STOPPING, IT TAKES A COUPLE OF MINUTES BEFORE YOU ARE ABLE TO RESTART THE CAR. THIS IS VERY UNSAFE AT AN INTERSECTION WHEN THE LIGHT TURNS GREEN. ONLY WAY AROUND THIS ISSUE IS TO DISABLE THE AUTO STOP FUNCTION AT THE...

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 HONDA PILOT. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY AND WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE "AUTO IDLE DISABLER" FEATURE ENGAGED ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS. THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING AFTER THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED AT A STOP LIGHT. THREE WEEKS LATER, WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 15 MPH ON THE FREEWAY, THE "AUTO IDLE DISABLER" FEATURE ENGAGED AGAIN WHILE IN HEAVY TRAFFIC AND THE VEHICLE STALLED. THE CONTACT SHIFTED THE GEAR INTO PARK, DISABLED THE POWER, AND RESTARTED THE VEHICLE. IN ADDITION, WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY, ALL OF THE WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. WHILE DRIVING 55 MPH, ON ANOTHER OCCASION, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO SHIFT GEARS PROPERLY AND THE RPMS RAPIDLY INCREASED TO 5,000. ALSO, THE REVERSE GEAR SHIFTER BECAME INOPERATIVE AND THE GEARS WOULD NOT SHIFT WHILE DRIVING 55 MPH. BIG STAR HONDA (11200 GULF FREEWAY, HOUSTON, TEXAS 77034) COULD NOT DIAGNOSE AND...

MY VEHICLE IS DISPLAYING THE KEYLESS IGNITION ERROR AND IT JUST SO HAPPENS THAT ITS A KNOWN ISSUE AMONG MANY MANY OTHER 2016 HONDA PILOT OWNERS. I FEEL THIS IS A SCAM TO GET US TO DROP MONEY AT THE DEALERSHIP. MY CAR WAS RUNNING, OPENING UP FINE UNTIL ALL OF A SUDDEN THAT MESSAGE POPPED UP. WHAT A COINCIDENCE THIS IS HAPPENING AT TTHE SAME TIME AS EVERYONE ELSE.

AUTO START-STOP FAILS TO RE-START ENGINE AFTER SHUTTING OFF AT A STOP/STATIONARY. FIX HAS BEEN HAVING TO PLACE THE VEHICLE IN PARK, SHUT OFF ENGINE & RESTART ENGINE. MULTIPLE DASH MALFUNCTION LIGHTS ALSO ILLUMINATE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 HONDA PILOT. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE FAILED TO START WHEN ATTEMPTING TO DRIVE. ALSO, WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 40 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT WAS NOT ABLE TO COAST THE VEHICLE TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. WHILE IN TRAFFIC, THE VEHICLE RESTARTED INDEPENDENTLY AFTER TEN MINUTES AND WAS ABLE TO DRIVE NORMALLY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO HONDA CARS OF KATY (21001 KATY FWY, KATY, TX 77450) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED, BUT THE FAILURE COULD NOT BE DUPLICATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND OPENED CASE NUMBER: 08934725. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 29,000.

MY 2016 HONDA PILOT DOES NOT FUNCTION PROPERLY. THE "EMISSIONS" CHECK ENGINE LIGHT HAS COME ON THREE DIFFERENT TIMES, ALL WITH LESS THAN 40,000 MILES ON THE VEHICLE. THE HONDA DEALER CLAIMS THAT THEY FIXED THE PROBLEM EACH TIME; BUT THAT'S NOT THE CASE. THE LIGHT CONTINUES TO COME ON IN DURING NORMAL DRIVING CONDITIONS.

AROUND 38,000 MILES ON THE 2016 HONDA PILOT, IT STARTED TO SHOW AN ERROR ON THE SCREEN IN THE DASH SAYING "KEYLESS START SYSTEM PROBLEM" THAT CAUSE THE CAR NOT TO WORK ON THE AUTOLOCK FEATURE WHEN YOU WALK AWAY OR THE AUTOMATIC TIMER LOCK WHICH IS SET AT 30 SECONDS. AFTER 30 SECONDS, THE CAR DOESN'T LOCK AT ALL. LEAVING THE VEHICLE BEING UNLOCKED AND POSSIBLY BEING STOLEN. TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND THE DEALER IS ASKING $307 DOLLARS TO REPLACE THE START BUTTON. THIS SHOULD BE COVERED BY HONDA SINCE IT IS AN ELECTRICAL SYSTEM PROBLEM THAT WAS NOT CAUSED BY THE OWNER. MANY OTHER PEOPLE ARE COMPLAINING ABOUT THE SAME ISSUE ON FORUMS.

ABOUT 4 MONTHS AGO I WAS AT A STOPLIGHT, MY ENGINE SHUT DOWN, AS IT WAS SUPPOSED TO WITH THE 'AUTO IDLE STOP' FUNCTION. IT IS SUPPOSED TO START BACK UP WHEN YOU TAKE YOUR FOOT OFF THE BRAKE, BUT THIS TIME THE CAR STALLED. IT STALLED MANY TIMES AFTER THIS AND IT WAS ALWAYS UNEXPECTED AND SCARY. I TOOK IT INTO MY DEALER ON JUNE 6, 2018 AND THEY SAID THEY COULD SEE THAT THEY COULD SEE IN THE COMPUTER THAT IT STALLED A FEW TIMES, BUT COULD NOT REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM WHILE TEST DRIVING IT. THEY DID A RESET ON THE ELECTRONICS. THAT DID NOTHING. I STALLED A WHILE AFTER I LEFT THE SHOP. I STALLED MANY MORE TIMES AFTER THAT. IT DOES HAVE AN OVERRIDE TO THIS 'AUTO IDLE STOP' SYSTEM, BUT YOU HAVE TO ALWAYS REMEMBER TO PUSH THE BUTTON AND IF I FORGOT AND THE...

THE CAR CONTINUALLY STALLS AT RED LIGHTS AND OTHER FULL STOPS AFTER THE "AUTO-SHUTOFF" ENGAGES. THE CAR FAILS TO RESTART AND RESULTS IN DANGEROUS SITUATIONS IN HIGH TRAFFIC AREAS IN THE CITY. THE CAR CAN NOT BE MOVED EASILY BECAUSE IT BECOMES COMPLETELY UNRESPONSIVE, EVEN DISABLING THE FLASHERS. IT HAS HAPPENED REPEATEDLY.

WHILE DRIVING ALL WARNING LIGHTS ACTIVATED CYCLING THROUGH EACH OF THEM. THE VEHICLE LOST ALMOST ALL POWER CAUSING A VERY UNSAFE AND POTENTIALLY FATAL CONDITION. SEVERAL TRANSMISSION AND OTHER CODES WERE NOTED FOLLOWING THE INCIDENT. HONDA TECH LINE ADMITTED THAT THIS CONDITION WAS KNOWN TO THEM VERY WELL BUT REFUSES TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM UNLESS IT OCCURS REPEATEDLY. ONLINE RESEARCH SHOWS THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM BUT DOES NOT APPEAR TO HAVE ALREADY BEEN ADDRESSED BY THE NTSB.

MY VEHICLE HAS BEEN CUTTING OFF, ALL POWER INCLUDING ALL COMPUTER SCREENS/DASHBOARD/STEERING, WHICH LAST 2-5 SECONDS, THEN CUTS BACK ON. THE RPM WILL REV UP TO THE 4-6 THOUSAND RANGE AND AT TIMES THE VEHICLE WILL NO GO OVER 45MPH. THIS HAS HAPPENED AT 35 MPH TO 70MPH. WHILE IN PARK, ABSOLUTELY NO GEAR ENGAGED, THE VEHICLE WILL LURCH FORWARD AND BACKWARD AS THOUGH IT WAS IN GEAR. MY FOOT WILL NOT EVEN BE ON THE BRAKE PEDAL AND IT WILL MOVE. LAST WEEK THE CAR WAS TURNED ON, PUT IN DRIVE, I PUSHED THE ACCELERATOR, THE RPM'S WENT TO 4000 AND THE VEHICLE DID NOT MOVE. I LOOKED DOWN TO MAKE SURE IT WAS IN DRIVE, WHICH IS WAS, AS I LOOKED UP THE CAR LURCHED FORWARD 2-3 FEET. THE EMISSIONS SYSTEM, LANE ASSIST LIGHT COME ON RANDOMLY. IT WILL TELL ME "STEERING REQUIRED" EVEN WHEN I AM DRIVING...

THE CAR STALLS INTERMITTENTLY WHEN AUTO IDLE STOP IS ENGAGED AND CAR IS STATIONARY. INSTEAD OF THE ENGINE STARTING UP AGAIN AFTER TAKE FOOT OFF THE BRAKE AND PRESS THE GAS PEDAL, THE CAR STALLS COMPLETELY AND HAVE TO PUT THE CAR IN PARK, PRESS THE BRAKE PEDAL AND PUSH THE START BUTTON TO GET IT ON AGAIN. SOMETIMES HAVE TO TRY SEVERAL TIMES BEFORE CAR RESTARTS. DEALER HAS BEEN UNABLE TO FIND ANYTHING OR REPLICATE PROBLEM. FIRST REPORTED TO DEALER OCT. 2017, DID SOFTWARE UPDATE, BUT HAPPENED AGAIN JUNE AND JULY.

THE MESSAGE "KEYLESS START SYSTEM PROBLEM" SHOWED UP IN THE INFORMATION SCREEN ABOUT A FEW WEEKS AGO, IT WOULD COME UP INTERMITTENTLY, WHENEVER I START THE ENGINE, AND THE MESSAGE STAYS ON THE ENTIRE TIME THE ENGINE IS RUNNNING. WHEN THE ENGINE IS SHUT OFF, THERE WILL BE A DING, AND THE MESSAGE WILL STAY ON FOR A FEW MINUTES BEFORE GOING AWAY. I TOOK IT TO THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP, THEY HAD NOT ENCOUNTERED A MESSAGE LIKE THAT BEFORE, AND COULD NOT FIGURE OUT WHAT WAS WRONG. I ALREADY HAVE OVER 42,000 MILES ON MY VEHICLE, SO THE FACTORY WARRANTY HAS RUN OUT. TODAY I TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP, SINCE THAT MESSAGE IS STILL SHOWING UP, AND I FINALLY HAVE THE TIME TO LEAVE IT FOR A FEW HOURS. THE SERVICE ADVISOR SAID NOW THERE IS A CODE FOR THAT ISSUE, BUT I WOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR...

DURING EXTREMELY COLD WEATHER, ALL SYSTEM FAILURE INDICATIONS SCROLL ON THE DISPLAY. HAPPENS INTERMITTENTLY AND WILL RESET ITSELF OVER TIME. I RENDERS THE SYSTEMS USELESS AS WELL. ALARMS INCLUDE HILL START ASSIST, TRAILER STABILITY ASSIST, ROAD DEPARTURE MITIGATION ASSIST, EMISSIONS, AWD AND EPS. MANY OF THESE SYSTEMS ARE SAFETY FEATURES AND NO LONGER RESPOND UNTIL BATTERY CABLE IS REMOVED OR RESET AFTER TIME.

BLOWER MOTOR CONNECTOR MELTED TO WIRING HARNESS. UNKNOWN AS TO WHAT CAUSED THIS ISSUES, ROUGHLY 31K MILES.

ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS I HAVE HAD ALL OF THE INDICATOR LIGHTS ON ON MY DASH, INCLUDING THE LKAS, COLLISSION MITIGATION, ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL, ROAD DEPARTURE, AND VARIOUS NOTIFICATIONS FOR MY BLUETOOTH, RADIO, AND NAVIGATION COME ON. ALSO, MY BACK UP CAMERA WILL HAVE A BLACK SCREEN AND THEN MY MAPS WILL BE GRAY WITH NO INFORMATION. MY CAR WILL SUDDENLY BRAKE WHEN THERE IS NO ONE IN FRONT OF ME AND SURGE FORWARD AS I'M TRYING TO COME TO A STOP, LIKE MY BRAKES AREN'T WORKING. I ALSO CAN'T MAKE ANY PHONE CALLS USING THE SYSTEM, AS IT WONT RECOGNIZE ANY VOICE TAGS AND INSTEAD GIVES ME EVERY CONTACT IN MY PHONE BOOK THAT MAY HAVE A HOME NUMBER. RECENTLY THE ABS IS ACTIVATING AS I TURN MY WHEELS TO THE RIGHT WHILE BACKING OUT OF PARKING SPACES. THESE MAY HAPPEN WHILE DRIVING OR WHILE STATIONARY. IT JUST ISN'T SAFE....

ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS, BEGINNING JUST MONTHS AFTER PURCHASE, I HAVE HAD ALL OF THE INDICATOR LIGHT TURN ON ON MY DASH, INCLUDING THE LKAS, COLLISION MITIGATION, ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL, ROAD DEPARTURE AND VARIOUS NOTIFICATIONS FOR MY BLUETOOTH, RADIO AND NAVIGATION COME ON. ALSO, MY BACKUP CAMERA WILL HAVE A BLACK SCREEN AND THEN MY MAPS WILL BE GRAY WITH NO INFORMATION. MY CAR WILL SUDDENLY BRAKE WHEN THERE IS NO ONE IN FRONT OF ME AND SURGE FORWARD AS I'M TO COMING TO A STOP AND THE RPM'S WILL RAISE, IT'S LIKE I'M SLIDING OVER ICE FOR A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME. I ALSO CAN'T MAKE PHONE CALLS USING THE SYSTEM, AS IT WON'T RECOGNIZE ANY OF MY VOICE TAGS. AND INSTEAD WILL GIVE ME EVERY CONTACT IN MY PHONE BOOK WITH A HOME NUMBER WHEN I ASK FOR IT TO CALL HOME. RECENTLY THE ABS IS ACTIVATING AS I...

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 HONDA PILOT. THE CONTACT STATED THAT VARIOUS WARNING INDICATORS AND GAUGES ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL CLUSTER. THE DEALER (HONDA CITY LONG ISLAND, 3859 HEMPSTEAD TURNPIKE, LEVITTOWN, NY 11756, (516) 735-8900) SCHEDULED AN APPOINMENT AND INDICATED THAT THEY PROVIDED A PGMFI SOFTWARE UPDATE, BUT IT FAILED TO PROVIDE A SOLUTION. THE VARIOUS WARNING INDICATORS AND GAUGES CONTINUED TO ILLUMINATE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE TO DETERMINE IF THEY COULD PROVIDE A SOLUTION. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 20,000.

1. I AM GETTING STATIC ON THE RADIO, THE DEALERSHIP IS NOT SOLVING THIS ISSUE COMPLETELY. I KNOW BY TURNING ON AND OFF THE CAR IT WILL RESOLVE IT FOR AN AMOUNT OF TIME AND IT COMES BACK. THIS OCCURS WHEN DRIVING AND NOT DRIVING. 2. ISSUES WITH TIRE LOW PRESSURE THE DEALERSHIP IS NOT SOLVING THIS ISSUE COMPLETELY. I KNOW BY ADDING AIR IT WILL RESOLVE IT FOR AN AMOUNT OF TIME AND IT COMES BACK. THIS OCCURS WHEN DRIVING AND NOT DRIVING.

THE COLLISION MITIGATION SYSTEM COMES ON AND ISSUES A WARNING THAT IT NO LONGER OPERATES AFTER DRIVING ALONG A ROAD WHERE THERE ARE NUMEROUS ORANGE CONES ALONG THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. THE SYSTEMS STATES IT IS OVERLOADED AND STOPS FUNCTIONING. SYSTEM MUST BE RE-CODED BY DEALER IN ORDER FOR SYSTEM TO WORK AGAIN. DEALER SAYS THERE IS NO FIX. RECOMMENDATION IS TO TURN OFF THE SYSTEM WHENEVER ENCOUNTERING THIS SITUATION. THIS ESSENTIALLY MAKES DEFEATS THE PURPOSE OF THE SYSTEM.

COLLISION MITIGATION SYSTEM FAILURE INDICATOR ON DASH AS CAR MOVES PAST MULTIPLE HIGHWAY SAFETY CONES. SYSTEM APPEARS TO BE OVERLOADED AS IT DETECTS CONES ON SIDE OF ROAD. CODES MUST BE RESET IN ORDER FOR SYSTEM TO WORK AGAIN. HONDA CANNOT FIX THIS AT THIS POINT. THIS HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES WITH THE CAR.

2016 HONDA PILOT 12,442 MILES. THE VEHICLE DID NOT START AFTER PARKED FOR ABOUT AN HOUR. VEHICLE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM HAD POWER BUT NO START. DEALER CLAIMED THAT THE PROBLEM WAS A 2 YEAR OLD BATTERY. CLUSTER LIGHTS FLASHING AND VARIOUS SYSTEM PROBLEM CODES DISPLAYED. DEALER UPDATED SOFTWARE WITH A SERVICE BULLETIN. I AM WONDERING IF THE SOFTWARE ISSUE DAMAGED OR DRAINED MY BATTERY. ALSO A/C COMPRESSOR LOUD GRINDING NOISE FOUND AT COLD START WHEN A/C TURNED ON AFTER VEHICLE PARKED FOR A COUPLE OF DAYS. THE ISSUE HAS BEEN RECORDED BUT DEALER CAN NOT DUPLICATE. CURRENTLY BEING REPAIRED ALSO FOR A NOISE FOUND UNDER STEERING WHEEL WHILE SLIGHTLY TURNING. IT MIGHT BE AN ISSUE WITH THE WIRING IN THE STEERING ELECTRICAL SYSTEM AND THIS CAN CREATE A PROBLEM WITH THE CONTROLS FOUND ON THE STEERING WHEEL INCLUDING THE AIRBAG AND HORN. IT TOOK 6 HOURS FOR ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE TO PICK...

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 HONDA PILOT. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 15V668000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM). THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE LOCAL DEALER (VALLEY HONDA, 296 LEE JACKSON HWY, STAUNTON, VA 24401) TO BE REPAIRED. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS BEING REPAIRED, IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT YET REPAIRED. THE LOCAL DEALER STATED THAT THERE WAS A 1% CHANCE OF THE CLUSTER FAILING AGAIN DUE TO THE PART BEING DEFECTIVE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED AND WAS WORKING WITH THE LOCAL DEALER TO FIND A REMEDY. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 22,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. UPDATED 11/03/17*LJ CONSUMER STATED INSTRUMENT CLUSTER FAILED. CAR SOLD, VIN INVAID UPDATED 7/18/18*JB *TR

EMISSION PROBLEM AND ENGINE MALFUNCTION WARNING LIGHTS ON FOR NO APPARENT REASON. THIS HAS OCCURRED TWICE WITHIN THE PAST THREE WEEKS. DEALERSHIP RESET ALARMS FIRST TIME AND NOW NEW SOFTWARE INSTALLED TODAY. HONDA HAD ISSUED A SERVICE ADVICE ABOUT THE ISSUE. HOPEFULLY THIS TAKES CARE OF THE PROBLEM.

ENGINE STOPS WON'T RESTART MULTIPLE WARNING LIGHT FLASHING GIVING APPEARANCE OF COMPUTER FAILURE. SECOND INCIDENT. FIRST INCIDENT DEALER SAID NO PROBLEM AFTER CHECKING BATTERY. SECOND INCIDENT IN TRAFFIC WHEN FAILURE OCCURRED (5/25/17 APPROX 8 A.M) BLOCKING INTERSECTION. FORTUNATELY WE WERE SLOWING TO STOP AT LIGHT. VIDEO OF DASH AVAILABLE TOO LARGE TO UPLOAD.

FRONT END CREEKING/LOUD POP WHEN TAKING OFF AND TURNING. NOT CONTINUOUS. HAD IT TEST DRIVEN BY HONDA DEALERSHIP MECHANIC TWICE. I WAS TOLD IT WAS NORMAL... AND NEVER CHECK UNDER THE VEHICLE. ALSO, HONDA RECALLED SOFTWARE FOR NAVIGATION PANEL... BUT THE SAME ISSUES HAVE ARISEN AGAIN.

REAR TAILGATE OPENING AND CLOSING WITHOUT CONTROL ONCE SELECTING THIS OPTION ON THE DOOR CONTROL, REAR TAILGATE BUTTON AND ON KEY FOB. DOES NOT SENSE WHEN SOMETHING OR SOMEONE IS UNDER THE DOOR UPON CLOSURE WHICH IS A STANDARD SAFETY FEATURE OF THIS AUTOMOBILE. THIS TAILGATE FAILS TO OPEN AND CLOSE OPPOROPRIATELY AND HAS CLOSED ON MY HEAD AND OTHERS WHEN OPERATING THIS TAILGATE FOR LOADING AND UNLOADING PURPOSES.

I WAS DRIVING AROUND TOWN RUNNING ERRANDS. AS I PULLED OUT OF A PARKING LOT, MY DISPLAY PANEL SHOWED EMISSIONS SYSTEM PROBLEM AND THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. CALLED DEALER AND THEY SAID IT'S NOT A BIG CONCERN UNLESS ENGINE LIGHT WAS FLASHING AND TO BRING IT IN AFTER THE WEEKEND (WAS A FRIDAY AFTERNOON). DROVE IT 30 MINUTES HOME AT 55-65 MPH AND NOTICED NO PROBLEMS. DROVE IT THAT DISTANCE AND SPEED TO TAKE IT TO THE DEALER AS WELL WITH NO PROBLEMS. PICKED IT UP A FEW DAYS LATER. SERVICE NOTES INDICATE: CODE P0328, KNOCK SENSOR FAILURE, REPLACED KNOCK SENSOR AND RETESTED, OK AT THIS TIME. AFTER PICKING IT UP, WAS ABOUT 10 MIN AWAY AND TRYING TO GO FROM 60 TO 68 AND SET CRUISE. SPEED BEGAN TO JUMP AROUND, NOT STAYING AT A SPEED FOR MORE THAN A SECOND 70-60-65-68-63, ETC. ENGINE LIGHT NOW FLASHING TOOK...

LESS THAN A MONTH AFTER PURCHASING THE CAR, THE CABIN LIGHTS STOPPED WORKING. THE FUSE WAS REPLACED, BUT IT HAPPENED AGAIN. THEN THE ELECTRIC IN THE REAR HATCH IS FAULTY. AT RANDOM, WHEN WE OPEN THE HATCH, IT WILL COME BACK DOWN ON ITS OWN AND THEN IT WON'T WORK AT ALL FOR A PERIOD OF TIME. THIS HAPPENS WITH THE KEY FOB AND ALSO WHEN USING THE BUTTON IN THE DOOR. THE VEHICLE IS STATIONARY WHEN THIS HAPPENS. WE TOOK IT IN TO GET IT FIXED, WE WERE TOLD THAT IT WAS FIXED, AND THE VERY NEXT DAY THE PROBLEM CONTINUED.

ON 3 SEPARATE OCCASIONS, OUR 2016 HONDA PILOT ELITE HAS COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN WHILE WE WERE DRIVING - TWICE ON THE HIGHWAY AND ONCE IN BUSY TRAFFIC. WHEN THIS HAPPENS, THE ENGINE, TRANSMISSION, POWER STEERING, ETC. ALL STOP WORKING AND THE CAR DISPLAYS EVERY ERROR YOU CAN IMAGINE. I HAVE POSTED A VIDEO HERE: HTTPS://WWW.YOUTUBE.COM/WATCH?V=BTEBMYWY-IS THIS IS VERY SCARY BECAUSE THERE IS NOTHING YOU CAN DO TO GET THE CAR WORKING AGAIN - LUCKILY, WE HAVE BEEN ABLE TO COAST TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. WHEN IT FIRST HAPPENED, WE CALLED HONDA EMERGENCY ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE AND WE HAD A TOW ON THE WAY WHEN WE TRIED RESTARTING THE CAR SEVERAL TIMES IN A ROW AND THAT CLEARED THE ERRORS. SINCE THEN, WE HAVE USED THE SAME TRICK TO GET THE CAR RUNNING AGAIN BUT IT HAS HAPPENED TWICE IN THE LAST WEEK - VERY SCARY! I HAVE FOUND OTHER...

CAR IS THROWING FAULT CODES FOR TRANSMISSION, CHECK ENGINE, ELECTRICAL. THE CAR SUDDENLY GOES TO "ENGINE LIMP MODE". HARD SHIFTING, SHUTTERING AND LOSS OF POWER. RANDOM OCCURRENCES. HAS BEEN TO DEALER 3 TIMES FOR SAME ISSUE. ISSUE OCCURS FROM A START OR AT LOW SPEEDS 20-35MPH WHILE IN MOTION. THE HARD SHIFTING IS CAUSING LONG TERM DAMAGE TO THE DRIVE TRAIN.
