“I got the letter from Honda. Based on the letter, the car has problem with the airbag module on the handle.I made appointment with one of dealer. However, it takes 5 months to replace the airbag in order to schedule.”
NHTSA complaint #10711847, filed 2015-04, 70,000 miles“We experienced a burning odor in the car cab, the air bag indicator lit and the A/C temperature rose to the outside air level. When taken to my car tech, he found that there was a fire on the right cabin wiring harness near where the harness enters the cabin. This fire burnt up all the wiring for several feet and disabled the A/C, front lights and air bag systems. If we had not caught this issue when we did, the engine could have had a fire even when not driving (I.e. In the garage at night). Our repairman also remarked that the airbags could have deployed at anytime when on the road. …”
NHTSA complaint #10538360, filed 2013-09, 89,229 miles“In our 2007 Honda Pilot there is no room for the driver to extend their left leg. There's a raised platform to rest the left foot on, but I find that uncomfortable after just a short time. When we first bought the used vehicle, I had both legs extended equally but experienced a situation where I had to stop abruptly. When I stepped on the brake, I found my left foot was under the brake. This seems like a significant design flaw. Our toyota camry also has a raised platform but allows sufficient room for me to extend my left leg without interfering with proper vehicle operation.”
NHTSA complaint #10390303, filed 2011-03, 10,000 miles“Several months ago the vsa light began to come on momentarily, for no reason. This has happened 50-100 x. Several weeks later, the steering wheel began to be sometimes (daily) not true (at one oclock), though the car was moving straight. (turning the wheel turned the car.) the ABS began momentarily firing, for no reason, and the car would slow, sometimes severely. (we were not braking.) the car would lose power momentarily, for no reason, though the engine continued to run, and everything else was normal, with no noise (e.g., no ABS). Recently the above happen every day. …”
