When I drove back from atlanta airport on highway I-85 on December 27, 2021, the car started shaking and check engine light was flashing. It was very dangerous on the highway. I immediately drove to nearest gwinnett place Honda. The dealer found the second cylinder misfired and replaced piston rings 1-3.

Engine consuming oil. Engine went from full to empty in oil capacity between oil changes.

Excessive vibration in front end when eco light turns on indicating cylinder shut down and when driving over 30 mph problem began after approx 50,000 miles.

I took my vehicle to all star Honda in milwaukee WI when I received a letter of recall for bushings. I explained I had been having multiple other issues that I had not had time to be without my car to leave it for repair. The service agent explained spark plugs were recalled which would resolve the sluggish take off I reported. She also said the transmission switch I had replaced was in need of an update which would further cure my problems. Finally they were to check the bushings due to recall. She assured me the recalls would cure all but the radio issue I had but they would check that out while they had my vehicle. They found nothing but the bushings. I filed complaint with Honda corp that dealer wont uphold recalls as they dont get error codes. They told corp rep they had my car several days which is a lie. They had it about 4 hours from when they opened until I picked up. Corp rep said nothing else we can do. Meantime, I have no brakes on cold winter days and my car puts along getting on the freeway until it jerks, rpm's drop and then I zoom up to speed quickly. I would have to check receipts for exact date I was at dealer & filed complaints.

Tl-the contact owns a 2010 Honda Pilot. The contact stated that while depressing the brake pedal at approximately 5 mph the vehicle accelerated without warning causing the contact to crash into the vehicle that was in front of him. After impact the vehicle continued to accelerate while the contacts foot was depressing the brake pedal. A police report was filed. The vehicle was towed to the dealer and was not diagnosed. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 45,515. Sw.

My wife was driving down the street and she was going to get into another lane she checked her mirrors and took a glance over he shoulder. When she looked back she noticed a car had stopped in the lane. She then slammed on her brakes in which at that time she said it felt that like the car was still pulling against her braking. After she hit the person in front of her pushing the adverse vehicle forward. Her car then continued accelerating as she was braking and slammed into the adverse vehicle again. Her car only stopped by putting the car in park.

Our Honda Pilot routinely becomes sluggish and hesitates during acceleration. This pattern only takes place at speeds between 20-35 mph. This is very dangerous when entering a highway and attempting to accelerate to join the flow of traffic. Scott wolfe.

Driving along at normal highway speeds and the emission management indicator light started blinking. Took vehicle to Honda dealership for inspection and found out that there was a software update needed for the fuel management control systems as Honda was getting multiple complaints of early spark plug fouling due to incorrect management of the eco drive state. We found out that we had lost 4 out of 6 cylinders due to the spark plugs being fouled. This could have been a serious safety issue and could have caused a major accident on a interstate highway had all the cylinders been lost at one time. Was traveling with wife and 2 kids at time of incident. To me there should be a recall for 2010 Honda Pilots as this is a known problem through Honda. The software update was still covered under warranty but the replacement of the plugs was not as they are considered a normal wear and tear item even though they lasted for less than half of the expected life of a spark plug.

Cruising on the highway the "check engine" light came on and car started putting and decelerating (loss of power). Pressing on the gas paddle could hardly sustain speed. Drove to dealership and it was determined that it was a faulty spark plug. The same has happened before with another spark plug (that time under warranty) . According to Honda dealer spark plugs are replaced at 100,000 miles and this vehicle has 40,000 miles. Since it happened twice already most likely it will happen again and it is a defective series of spark plugs. Honda us declined to assist stating that it is out of warranty (even though the dealership did include it under warranty understanding that this is un-acceptable). This seems to be a prevalent problem in Honda Pilot (see other complaints on the internet). Can you help? I would like Honda to replace all spark plugs.

Car has been burring oil for years. I have talked to and taken it to Honda several time. I always get the same answer. It's normal to burn a quart every 1000 miles.
