1 Body problem

Failure Date: 07/24/2025

My paint is peeling. I never had a vehicle with the paint peeling like this. Its color is white. What can be done about this? I have bought touch up paint to help stop the peeling but that didnt do so well.

2 Body problem

Failure Date: 05/06/2024

Clear coat failing on roof and paint chipping bubbling away from body on tailgate without evidence of rust. Reported to dealer and was told to contact american Honda corp directly.

3 Body problem

Failure Date: 12/01/2020

My paint is flaking. Honda refuses to fix it due to my VIN number not being part of their warranty extension. This is weird since my year, make, model, and paint color match the warranty extension but my VIN does not.

4 Body problem

Failure Date: 05/04/2020

The paint on the roof and hood have worn to a point where the color has changed to white. It looks like all of the clear coat and base color have worn out and now showing just the primary or whatever is used to protect the metal area. There is currently a recall from Honda on several vehicles that looks exactly like the damage I am describing.

5 Body problem

Failure Date: 01/25/2019

Came back home from driving a few miles to find paint missing between the windshield and moon roof of our 2014 Honda Pilot. I've taken it to our local Honda dealership and service center which has been anything, but helpful in trying to get this remedied. They had me take it to their service center for a quote which they then sent to Honda corporate and took 6 weeks to hear something back. They've told me they'd cover 70% of the cost to repair which left me with a little over $550 +tax to cover out of my own pocket which is ridiculous given that this is obviously a paint defect. My car has very low mileage (48k) and for a lot of the life garage kept. Basically since it falls outside of warranty they won't cover all of it is what I'm told, which I get for mechanical issues that may arise, but not for what's obviously a defect in their painting. I've reached back out to the service manager asking for the regional corporate representative, but has never reached back out.

6 Body problem
