Example complaints

“Extreme shaking in the steering wheel when I reach driving speeds of 68-70 MPH. The entire engine appears to be shaking as well. I've heard that this is a common issue with Honda pilots.”

NHTSA complaint #11025429, filed 2017-09, 160,000 miles

“2007 Honda Pilot vibration at speeds 65 and higher. Bought new tires, had them balanced three times by 2 different tire companies. Dealer (frank ancona Honda-olathe, ks)said they have never heard of this before on the pilots. They said that the tires were the problem. There are thousands of people that have written on internet threads and blogs about this same problem. Honda basically said I'll have to live with the vibration & told me it was a waste of time for me to bring it back again.”

NHTSA complaint #10261570, filed 2009-03, 30,000 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. …”
