After placing the gear shifter in reverse, from a stationary position, the reverse camera has stopped working, which keeps the driver from being able to safely see obstacles (pedestrians) when backing up. This safety feature is especially important in taller vehicles, like this Honda Pilot, as they don't allow you to see smaller people who's heads fall below the window line, which could result in an injury or fatality. After researching online, it appears many other 2nd generation Honda Pilot owners have complained of the same issue, which is a result of moisture getting into the camera unit itself.
Several water leaks into interior of vehicle at different times of year. After third leak I took to dealership they discovered sunroof drain plugs were clogged. After cleaning so far no more interior leaks. Vehicle miles 22k - 31k.
Windsheid wiper reservior started leaking. Unable to clean windshield. Leak was caused by crack in seam of reservior. May have been a manufacturing or design defect.
Since December of 2016 the center console (heating/cooling settings, stereo, volume controls) have flashed, faded, or shut off completely while operating the vehicle. This is a driving distraction and hazard to the operator(s) of this vehicle. Since the purchase in November of 2014, I drive 10,000 miles over a 10 week period several times a year. When the issue occurred I immediately contacted the dealer, who responded the vehicle was out of warranty (3 years/36,000 miles) and would be a costly out of pocket repair to me. I had already replaced the wiper motors within two years out of pocket. I sought out second opinions from other Honda dealers and service providers who also gave a similar quote. I researched other online chats of similar complaints by other Honda owners. To this day I'm still having further issues with the center console system (air conditioning controls fluctuate, the stereo/bluetooth volume fluctuates from loud to soft, and I must manually adjust the temperature settings blindly. I love my 2015 Pilot but feel that this matter should be resolved by the dealership. Can you help me resolve this blinding defect in an otherwise wonderful vehicle?.
While driving on smooth highway heard a cracking noise come from windshield. After parking vehicle I noticed a crack on windshield starting on passenger side at front post and traveling towards center of vehicle. Checked for stone chip and found none. Suspect damage came from stress on glass because there was nothing to indicate any foriegn object hitting the glass. After looking online, I noticed other complaints similar to mine. I suspect Honda has an issue with either the glass itself or with design and installation of the windshield.
Rear window wiper blade became disengaged from wiper arm.
