general problems of the 2014 Honda Pilot

On [xxx], the Pilot auto-braked without cause while driving on the highway in maryland. All dash lights were illuminated so [xxx] pulled over. The car seemed to be functioning including the brake system (which was one of the lights illuminated during this occurrence) so the lights on the dash were assumed to be a computer glitch as was the auto-brake that caused the lights to illuminate in the first place. At this time, the center dash did not indicate low oil. [xxx] attempted to make an appointment with darcars while she was in town but being a holiday weekend, no appointments were available. [xxx] scheduled the next available appointment at cma valley (July 5, 2023). While parking the car on [xxx] the center dash indicated low oil, however, this was perceived as a glitch due to the fact that it only occurred while parking and not when the car was started or while driving. The same occurrence was experienced [xxx] but no days in between. Therefore, it is still seen as a computer glitch. These two instances are what led to the events on [xxx]. When she was halfway home with her two children and the car began to become unresponsive, she pulled off of the highway and added oil herself in an attempt to get her children home and have the car inspected (appointment scheduled for July 5, 2023). She was unable to get the oil cap off herself in order to add the oil and had to ask for assistance. The gentleman who provided said assistance dropped the oil cap. Mrs. Palumbo properly added the oil with a funnel and no oil was spilled. A new oil cap was purchased and properly replaced by an autozone employee before continuing on to virginia and documentation of receipts and time-stamped texting conversations regarding the cap being replaced can be provided. Upon the appointment on July 5, 2023 it was determined that the engine needed to be replaced due to not having enough oil which was unknown due to the glitch information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6).

We have 2014 Honda Pilot that had 68,072 miles on it. My wife believed that the automatic transmission for the vehicle was placed park in our driveway. According to the Honda owner's manuel there is a safety feature that prevents the ignition key from being removed unless the vehicle is in park. The vehicle rolled back into a tree causing over $3,000. 00 in property damage. This exact same problem has occurred in the past with the Honda Pilot (2003-2004) and the Honda odyssey (2003-2004) and the Acura mdx (2003-2006) which were the subject of a recall by Honda. Please see NHTSA action number pe12026. These recalled vehicles as well as our 2014 Honda Pilot are equipped with an automatic transmission. They have a safety interlock system that is supposed to prevent the ignition key from being removed from the ignition unless the transmission is in the park position. When the transmission is not in park, the vehicle may roll unexpectedly increasing the risk of a crash. This is exactly what happened to our 2014 Honda Pilot. I contacted Honda and they could have cared less about this problem even though the same product defect obviously exists again in the new model Honda vehicles. This product defect poses a high risk of danger and Honda should be required to remedy this defect. I have videos that document this defect.

Major electrical malfunction, most of the dash electronics won't work. The rear hatch is locked and cannot be opened. No a/c and no gauges operating. Major disappointment for a 2014 Honda Pilot touring edition with only 6000 miles. Hope the local Honda dealership fixes it tomorrow 3/31/15.

45 miles on a brand new 2014 Pilot ex-l the ignition does not engaged consistently. When you turn the key and the engine cranks, it does not turn over, rather it continues to make cranking sound, even when key goes back to run/on position. You need to turn key off to get cranking to stop. 50 miles on barand new 2014 Pilot ex-l a continuous clicking sound comes from the steering column when making a left hand turn. It does it when you turn right, but more predominant when turning left. From onset - the driver's side door does not open and close smoothly - thought at first it was just the hinge catching, further inspection demonstrates the left front fender and driver's door seem is not uniform. Therefore the bottom of the fender and driver's side door are rubbing against each other and paint is rubbing off.
