general problems of the 2012 Honda Pilot

The vehicle's paint is literally peeling away from every horizontal and connected vertical surface. Without paint on metal, rust is happening, weakening the metal structure of the vehicle. Have reached out to Honda USA and they informed they had no responsibility for the paint, yet the service writer at my local Honda dealer said that my vehicle's paint, pearl white, has been peeling off Honda vehicles for years and Honda knows it to be an issue yet only occasionally offers to be of any assistance. I am the original owner of this 2012 Honda Pilot, the vehicle has never been in an accident, yet in the past year paint has come off of the vehicle at an alarming rate (literally in sheets). To be able to make necessary restorations the front window was broken and had to be replaced (at my expense). If Honda knows its pearl white paint doesn't adhere to the metal body, that is a known product defect and they are potentially contributing to accelerated body deterioration (a safety concern). I have all current documentation for the restoration, and upon attempting to pick up the vehicle it was discovered that the hood was sustaining the same problem as the roof and upper body. There are no impacted "warning" lights as this is not mechanical, and I am unclear how separating paint (according to our local Honda dealer is always pearl white) poses an immediate safety problem for me or others, but if you are not aware that Honda dealers know the pearl white paint is defective, what else are they not telling you/us about our vehicle and the vehicles owned by hundreds of thousands of americans? please conduct your own investigation and contact me if you'd like copies of our correspondence with Honda USA and the original estimate versus the final bill ($1000 more) for the first round of re-painting. We now are having a second round of painting to address the paint failure on the hood. Thank you.

Paint peeling. I brought it to a body shop and they stated it was a manufacturing defect. I am looking for other ways to follow up with Honda directly. It is getting increasingly worse.

As I proceed to accelerate onto a highway or road my vehicle is very hesitant no matter how far you push down on the gas pedal it will not go and then all of the sudden it lurches accelerating the speed very fast as if it's trying to catch up. This has caused me to almost I have three accidents now. I have to be very cautious when entering an intersection or pulling onto a freeway as my vehicle declines to accelerate as it needs to causing people to run into me almost. It is a pretty significant delay for the vehicle to catch up on its own and could be very dangerous for anyone. I have read several columns where customers with Honda Pilots have experienced this same ordeal and yet it's hard to take to a dealership and explain what's going on and then get in the car and it not happen right away but my car does it almost every single time you try to accelerate on to any road. This should be addressed as soon as possible before it causes a life.

I noticed a few months ago that the paint was peeling on my 2012 Honda Pilot. Paint should not peel on a car that is only 7 years old. I contacted Honda and the have refused to fix this.

My paint is peeling on the roof between the windshield and the sunroof.

Bluetooth connection drops regularly, causing a distraction to the driver.

Power went down, all doors not operative, trunk also non operative, could trap passenger and driver and cause death. All windows are not operative, all doors are non operative, trunk is not opperative.

Vehicle is vibrating at high speeds (70. . . 75 mph). After numerous attempts at the dealership to correct vibration problems when running at highway speeds, only to have no correction done at all, I have decided to write to you about this issue. Honda will acknowledge there is a vibration problem at highway speeds but do not have a correction for it, other than charge the customers a new set of tires on a constant basis.
