“On 7/25/2020 I was driving on the highway at 9:00 pm center land of a 3 lane highway when I heard a loud bang on the roof of the vehicle. I pulled off the highway and discovered the sunroof glass had shattered, with no apparent damage to any other part of the vehicle. Nothing appeared to have struck the vehicle, only the glass appeared to have spontaneously exploded.”
NHTSA complaint #11341825, filed 2020-07, 75,000 miles“The spare tire fell off from under the vehicle while vehicle was in motion. Thankfully I was driving slowly in my driveway but the cable snapped and this could have happened seconds earlier while I was driving 50.”
NHTSA complaint #11291808, filed 2019-12, 70,000 miles“The compass started flashing I call the dealership they said that to calibrate it back just drive in a circle on a parking lot. That would work but the flashing has appeared more often and now it won't go away. It flashes all the time and it is distracting while driving. It has the possibility of causing an accident specially at night. Please I need this defect recalled asap. Ps. I'm screenshooting this request for proof of reporting in case something happens.”
NHTSA complaint #11043815, filed 2017-11, 45,000 miles“While cranking my 2015 Honda Pilot on 11/22/15 it did not want to start. I turned the key and let it go and it continued to try to start on its own. I turned the key back to off and took it out of the ignition. After the third try of starting my vehicle it finnally started. It was not extremely cold out ide the temperature was 51 degrees. This is my 3rd Pilot I have owne and never had this issue before. My vehicle only has16,500 miles on it. Could this be the sign of a bigger issue?”
