Problem: emissions system problem I am reaching out to request an expansion of the coverage provided by service bulletin 21-010 to include vehicles of the same model year, trim level, and similar specifications—even if they fall outside the currently specified VIN range. I believe this case is reason for Honda to consider expanding the coverage due to the potential for this issue to affect additional vehicles beyond the initially designated vins. 1. Defects are not always VIN-specific manufacturing flaws can affect an entire batch of production, not just a specific VIN range. Issues related to parts, assembly processes, or design flaws found within the currently affected VIN range could very well extend to vehicles produced around the same time, even if they lie outside the VIN specifications. By limiting coverage strictly to the designated VIN range, Honda may inadvertently overlook other vehicles that share the same defect. 2. Shared components and engineering design while variations in parts and tolerances are expected, vehicles with the same model year and trim level often share critical components and similar engineering specifications. This makes it likely that other vehicles outside the specified VIN range could also be affected by the same defect. Given that design, assembly processes, and parts are often consistent across a model year, expanding the coverage could better account for possible common manufacturing issues. 11-9-24 - Honda ran their analysis determined the following issue: p0430 (front bank catalyst system efficiency below threshold [bank 2]) bulletin out for fuel injectors replacement first. Performed cylinder af test and failder number 1 and 6. Replace fuel injectors and perform af test again. May need cat. Converter front. On 11-8-24 Honda customer support refused to include this car in the recall. Vehicles with the same year, model, and trim level should be included in the service bulletin, based on the systemic nature of the defect.

My car has a surge and hiccup. Upon the test drive the mechanic said it feels like it’s misfiring. Several mechanics have said this could be due to the fuel pump. The fuel pump is on a safety recall, however Honda has been refusing to fix it for about a year now. Due to the hesitation, when driving my car could stall any moment, which will increase the risk of a crash or injury.

I am concerned about the 2019 Honda Pilot fuel pump recall. My vehicle is dispaying symptoms described in the recall letter. We called a national number inquiring about parts availability. We were told the dealership just needs to request the part. We've gone to 2 Honda dealerships that required $180 to diagnose the recall. The letter from Honda says the recall will be completed for free. There was no mention of the $180 fee to diagnose the recall. My vehicle hesitation has become worse in recent months and feels unsafe to drive. Honda is raking in money from recalls. I finally paid the $180. . . . I will be surprised if they admit that my car issues have anything to do with the recall. This whole process seems unethical.

Honda is to replace the fuel pump with a new one due to a recall. I have received my notice to go get one more than 6 weeks ago and they never have any in stock and will not provide me any info on when they will be available. Just that they get them randomly and that there is nothing they can do for me and they refuse to contact me when they got one and told me its like a lottery, if you can and we have one then you are lucky and we will replace.

Recall notice received may 2024 for a faulty fuel pump. As of Aug 26, dealer continues to claim they can not get the parts necessary to fix. They tell me the failure risk is low and I should not worry about it. Those words ring hollow when you are telling me their is a risk of a crash and injury. Why is this acceptable.

Nhtsa recall number 23v-858: I have contacted my local Honda dealer multiple times to fix vehicle per the recall and have been told that Honda has provided no parts to fix the vehicle, even after my vehicle began experiencing problems. Recently, while operating my vehicle, it hesitated (I. E. Almost stalled out) and then surged forward, which caused me to get into a collision and sustain injuries. After the collision, I contacted the Honda manufacturer using the customer service number on the recall notice and informed them of the collision. They denied that the issue my vehicle was experiencing was related to recall even though a Honda website states that the fuel pump issue will cause the same issues that I experienced. The Honda manufacturer customer service rep. Stated that Honda has parts to fix the recall and the dealer should have asked to receive a part. When I contacted the dealer and informed them of the Honda manufacturer customer service rep. Statements, the service manager and my local dealer became upset and frustrated as he informed me that they have been trying to get parts for months. The Honda manufacturer does not appear to care for the safety of the individuals using their products, nor the for the individuals that may also be injured based upon these unsafe vehicles still being on the road. In additions, the Honda manufacturer is providing intentionally misleading statements to consumers related to the recall. Their actions are unacceptable and they should be held accountable.

Failure Date: 06/01/2024

My vehicle started experiencing issues with hesitation when driving it on the freeway as if it was placed into neutral when accelerating. As instructed by my service bulletin number 24-010 letter, I needed to take my vehicle to the dealership. I took my vehicle to the hendrick Honda dealership located at 14201 richmond hwy woodbridge, va 2219. They are trying to tell me that the recall is an extended warranty and they won't do anything unless the fuel pump goes out or they do a diagnostic that gives them a code that says there is an issue with the fuel pump module. The letter clearly states this is a recall and not an extended warranty issue. This incident occurred on Saturday June 1st, 2024. I want to make this response known to you guys because if I am being told this others are too. This recall is a safety issue, which can cause our vehicle to lose complete power! if I am experiencing issues as stated with this vehicle this is a concern. I won't be taking my vehicle back to that location, but I want to make sure that this issue is clarified and that their response is being addressed. Thank you for your time.

The fuel pump has been stalling and acting out since 2022 and received recall "NHTSA number: 23v-858 on February 2024. We call tampa Honda at 813-935-8585 to schedule a recall repair. Tampa Honda informed us that they don't have parts to replace the fuel pump. We then, 60 days after February 2024, received a second recall letter, "NHTSA recall number: 23v-858 today 18 may 2024 and called tampa Honda for the second time to schedule a recall repair of the fuel pump. For the second time, tampa Honda customer service told us that they don't have parts for the replacement. We informed them that the recall issue ( stalling and engine hesitation while driving )with our Honda Pilot 2019 is persistent and that we are concerned about the vehicle's safety.

Fuel injector is causing awd error. No longer able to use the auto start on vehicle. Sometimes vehicle will not start. Unsure if that was due to the fuel pump recall either. Fuel pump has been replaced. Check engine light is still on and last time we had it checked it was due to fuel injector. The fuel injector was part of a recall for the year and model of our car but was told our VIN was not part of the recall.

Three of the six fuel injectors on a 2019 Honda Pilot failed, with diagnostic trouble codes p0430, p0300, p0304, p0306, and p219a, resulting in the vehicle requiring transportation via tow truck to an independent service center. Research into the history of 2019 Honda Pilots indicates that 2019 model-year vehicles within a certain VIN number range, along with all 2018-2019 Honda odysseys, 2016-2018 Honda Pilots, and 2017-2019 Honda ridgelines, had their warranties extended for fuel injectors to 10 years from original date of purchase or 150,000 miles, whichever comes first. See Honda service bulletin 20-100. The issue is that some 2019 Honda Pilots are failing with these dtc codes, but are not covered by the warranty extension. The problem was diagnosed by an independent service center and we were directed to Honda for further diagnostic and possible warranty service. A technician at the service center stated that he had never seen a customer have to pay for fuel injector replacement on a Honda Pilot from 2016-2019 model years that developed this problem. Regardless, Honda insists that this vehicle is not covered by the warranty extension and required us to pay for the repair ourselves. My family and I were temporarily without a usable vehicle, because our other vehicle was undergoing scheduled maintenance at the time of the failure. Prior to the failure, all of the warning lamps on the vehicle would occasionally illuminate at vehicle start up, but the vehicle operated normally, and the warning lamps stopped illuminating after a few start ups. The warning lamps that would simultaneously illuminate were all of the adas systems available on this vehicle, as well as things like hill start assist, traction control, emissions, and the anti-lock braking system. So many errors were simultaneously reported on the dashboard that our service center believed that the problem might be an intermittent engine control computer problem in addition to the issue listed above.

Emissions system problem code appeared on dash with check engine light on. I took the car to the dealer immediately and they ran codes and tests on it and stated the fuel injectors need replaced. Doing research on the fuel injectors on the 2019 Honda Pilot I came across the NHTSA article how other 2019 Honda Pilots have already had issues but my VIN is not coming up with this error per everyone I have talked at with Honda. Per the policy stated by NHTSA below: date: February 11, 2021 all Honda sales, service & parts managers, and personnel from: brad ortloff, manager auto campaign administra?on dept. Update - warranty extension: 2018-19 odyssey, 2016-19 Pilot, 2017-19 ridgeline v6 fuel injector on, November 24, 2020, american Honda announced a warranty extension for certain 2016 Pilot vehicles. Today, February 11, 2021 american Honda is announcing an expansion to the vehicles covered under this warranty extension. Certain 2018-19 odyssey, 2017-19 Pilot, and 2017-19 ridgeline vehicles are being added to this market ac?on. American Honda is extending the warranty coverage of the fuel injectors to 10 years from the original date of purchase or 150,000 miles, whichever comes first. Background the fuel injectors may not have been manufactured to proper specifica?ons. As a result, debris from the high pressure pump or the fuel injector machining process may cause internal wear or clogging inside one or more injectors. Also, the pcm so?ware may misinterpret sensor inputs as a deteriorated cataly?c converter. Repair dealers will replace the fuel injectors and on certain vehicles may also perform a so?ware update. Parts parts are available for ordering. Tools there are no special tools needed for this campaign. Service bulletin the following service bulle?ns have been posted to the service informa?on system (sis) as of February 11, 2021, and they includes parts, repair, and warranty informa?on related to this campaign: 20-100, warranty extension: mil comes on with d.

Vehicle has recall for fuel pump. Vehicle has had the cel (check engine light) on for the fuel system. It comes and goes and has had shuttering issues. I have called local dealer and was told until the vehicle is completely disabled that their hands were tied. The dealer wouldn't even look at my vehicle. I feel the safety of my family is at risk as we travel the very busy interstate of the suburbs of cincinnati. I do not like diving a vehicle that may become disabled with my kids in it.

February 2024, I received the 23v-858 recall notice for the fuel pump module that may have an improperly molded impeller and can cause the fuel pump to become inoperable. On February 18, 2024, my vehicle stalled on I-85 nb in atlanta, GA. My car was towed to Honda mall of georgia in buford, GA on February 18, 2024. On February 19, 2024, the technicians at Honda mall of georgia confirmed that it was indeed the fuel pump (that is under a safety recall) had gone out. My car has sat there ever since because they have yet to receive a part from Honda. I has been 60 days and there has been no remedy due to the fact they have not received a part.

I am filing a complaint with Honda motors due to a recall regarding the fuel pump. I received a letter stating that it is an issue that can be serious, leading to an accident or injury. The main reason for this complaint is that Honda stated that the part will not be available for at least seven months. This is our family car and we have two young children we would obviously like to keep safe. I do not feel safe with this current issue that cannot be resolved in a timely manner. I would like to know if the lemon law applies or anything to trade in this car that should not be driven. Thank you.

I was provided an email on my 2019 Honda Pilot in December 2023. I called my local Honda dealership to schedule the repair. I was scheduled and the day of my appointment they called to cancel stating the parts were not in. I waited till January 2024 and called back and they stated that they are still working out a plan with Honda and at this time no parts are available but they should be coming in the next month or two. I just got a letter in the mail today stating that it is going to be fall 2024 before parts are available. After reading this safety, recall letter I received from Honda it stating why the vehicles under recall, and the safety consequence regarding it. My check engine light is not on however, my vehicle has been acting like it is going to stall out several times while I’m driving under 35 mph. I’m very concerned because this is the only vehicle I have and I have four children and the thought of possibly being in an accident is very scary to think about, due to Honda not having a replacement part to fix the recall. This is assuming that the parts would be in by fall to fix the vehicle. I don’t have another vehicle to access so if I happen to get into accident and it’s due to my vehicle stalling would Honda then be liable for the wreck? I am little frustrated and have never in my life experienced an issue with Honda until now. If the parts are “unavailable” then I personally feel Honda should be paying for rental vehicles for these families who don’t have any other choices. I would rather pay for a rental than be sued for “potential injury” where the recall paper states that having an inoperable fuel pump, could prevent an engine from starting, causing the vehicle to lose power or stalling, while driving increasing the risk of an injury or crash. Something needs to be done about this.

As we were driving we started experiencing some slight stalling and eventually started hearing a pitter patter noise as we accelerated. At one point while on the freeway we stalled out and had to pull over almost causing an accident for the person behind us to hit us. This has more recently come up again as we were driving on the road and almost caused another accident. We did take it to two different Honda dealers and both confirmed that it has to do with the current fuel pump recall. No warnings.

In January, 2024 I was notified by Honda that the fuel pump module was being recalled and to contact our Honda dealer to have the vehicle repaired at no cost. Unfortunately, for the past twelve months I have been unable to have my vehicle scheduled for repair. I have been to two Honda dealers and we also called Honda headquarters and were told by all three that they're still waiting for the replacement parts, yet they could not give an estimated date when those parts would be available.

Vehicle has emission trouble light with code p219b. Dealer states fuel injectors need to be replaced. Service bulletin #21-010 defect 6e600 / symptom n9400 was issued by Honda for the same problem relating to the same year and model vehicle with the same engine. However, this service bulletin does not apply to my VIN.

61 Other Fuel System problem

Failure Date: 12/29/2023

I was notified of a vehicle recall related to a fuel pump issue. When I contacted my local Honda dealer 9 months ago, I was told that I was on a list for repair and would be notified when parts were available. I called today and was informed there is no such list. Since my fuel pump went out, I was stranded and forced to replace with an after market fuel pump. All star Honda in abilene TX told me today that they would not be servicing the recall any more because it was replaced with a non oem part. This does not seem right to me. How can you issue a recall, not correct it, expect the customer to correct it, and then still not honor the recall when parts become available. What they said is that Honda corporate determines how many parts will be sent to dealerships and they have no control over when they will get them. It seems as if Honda does not care if the recalls are repaired or not.

It’s been over a year my vehicle has a recall for the fuel pump module and it has not been replaced. I have taken it to Honda multiple times and I am told they do not have the part. I did read the information provided on your website. What has to happen in order for the fuel pump module to be replaced?.

63 Other Fuel System problem

Failure Date: 12/18/2023

Honda issued a recall on 12/18/2023 for the fuel pump that it acknowledges could cause the car to fail while driving, 23v-858. Over nine months later, parts are still not available to address this recall. That seems to exceed a reasonable timeframe to allow drivers to continue to drive cars that could critically malfunction.

64 Other Fuel System problem

Failure Date: 12/15/2023

My vehicle is equipped with a feature that turns it off at brakes stops and restarts when the gas is pushed (example - at a stop sign). Honda did a recall and replaced a part but this feature on my vehicle still stalls and doesn’t start instantaneously with the gas, causing a noticeable delay when I’m trying to go from a stoplight. Hondas remedy has been a button to turn this off - bit it must be turned off every single time the car is started and I’m afraid for my teenagers to take my 2019 Pilot because they may not remember the to do this. Honda at one point did turn this feature off on my vehicle but when I got a new battery put in, the computer reset and it is now active again. They informed me they now do not have the ability to turn off this feature due to a government legality over fuel efficiency so I feel very frustrated and disappointed.

The gas tank has a leak. This could result in a fire and is environmentally detrimental. Both a Honda dealer & and independent service center has verified this issue. This was discovered due to a check engine light.

I have a 2019 Honda Pilot (VIN 5fnyf6h56kb099643), little over 70,000 miles on it. In early December 2023, I started having problems with screening flashing in cycles every warning and failure message for the vehicle. I get a cylinder 4 misfire on my person code reader. Honda metro in indian trail nc tells me this is fuel injectors, they are on national backorder with no guaranteed delivery and it will cost me over $1200 to fix there. I asked if it was warrantied or recalled and was told no. Researching I found that the 2014-2018 fuel injectors were recalled. Also, found the 2014 -2020 were same injectors so not sure why the 2019 - 2020 are not covered by same recall.

My 2019 Honda Pilot is repeatedly having problems, when the vehicle is started and running, first thing in the morning. There is hard jerking when the vehicle is shifting on low speed (from first to second to third gear). This happens repeatedly in the morning start, then doesn't occur again on that day. It reoccurs again, the next day. Have taken the vehicle to the dealer service, they notice the issue but are unable to find the root cause. There is no error code generated. . Read more...

Failure Date: 09/26/2023

The mil comes on with dtcs p0441 (evap system purge flow malfunction) p04f1 (evap system low purge flow. Detected). I replaced the purge flow valve and joint purge valve which resolved the issue. The reason I am writing is, the coding within the 2019 Pilot also threw an awd system problem mil, but did not have a specific code associated via the obd reader. It is a false reading that can cause more work to be done to the car than necessary. Once both purge valves were replaced, there are no mil's present.

70 Other Fuel System problem

Failure Date: 08/10/2023

Our 2019 Pilot has experienced intermittent stalling at lights since 2019 and the incidents have occurred more frequently in the past few months (multiple times per week). It has been taken exclusively to the dealer since purchased and for years, they said they were unable to duplicate it. Last service was 08/2023 and sheehy Honda of alexandria, va stated that they duplicated it and fixed it (by resetting codes). Six days later, the stalling began again. I believe it's related to the auto idle stop function. Yes, it's available for inspection. This puts us and others at risk when the car suddenly stalls and stops at a busy intersection with people lined up behind us, not expecting to have to brake. It requires putting vehicle in park, turning it off and restarting engine. It has not been inspected by anyone except the Honda dealer. Warning lights come on when this happens, as it's dying. . . . Collision mitigation, battery, and this has been told to the dealer. I recently read online that turning off "auto idle stop" helps and this seems to be true.
