Tl- the contact owns a 2013 Honda Pilot. The contact stated that while operating the vehicle the front driver side sun visor would not remain in the up position causing a visibility hazard to the driver. The contact indicated that a plastic part used to secure the visor in the up position had cracked causing the failure. The local dealer Honda of pasadena located at 1965 e foothill blvd, pasadena, CA 91107 and the manufacturer were notified of the failure but no assistance was offered. The failure mileage was 55,000. Jft.
When it rains, water leaks through the windshield on the front passenger side. The ceiling, seat, and floor would be wet.
Drivers side sun visor will not stay up. One time when I pulled down gently to block the sun it became loose and never would stay up again. In reading on car forums this has been an ongoing issue with many models of Honda cars. I believe this is a safety issue and needs to be addressed by recall for repairs.
Car was parked in garage. Found front windshield cracked next day. Crack is impairing line of sight. I feel that windshield should not have cracked. Have read of many other Honda Pilots having similar problem.
I was driving on hwy got a flat tire. Pulled over to get help for fixing tire. Within few minutes rear window glass shattered with very loud noise - like a blast. Vehicle was pulled over in the center median - to my right 5 lane highway and to my left 2 lanes for high occupancy vehicles. There were no objects around the car (I checked for objects that could have flew over and could have hit rear window – there were none). Window shattered completely into tiny pieces - doesnt look like it has been hit by an object. I suspect this is a defective window by the manufacturer. Honda Pilot was less than 2 weeks old and ran 1100 miles. Dealer refused to accept this could be a malfunction. I did a complete visual inspection around car and there were no objects. Request investigaion.
