2 Assist problem of the 2026 Honda Pilot

Failure Date: 10/17/2026

The vehicle has a critical, severe multi-system factory safety defect involving structural steering/alignment and advanced driver assistance systems (adas) software. 1. Structural defect: from the time of delivery, the vehicle had out-of-specification factory alignment causing extreme handling instability, violent chassis/brake vibrations under acceleration/braking, and severe, premature tire rubber scrubbing/burning. Hayward Honda documented factory alignment failure on July 9, 2026, at 1,615 miles. Autonation Honda fremont documented severe vehicle pulling and drifting on September 4, 2026, at 2,533 miles. 2. Life-threatening adas software crash: the Honda sensing suite, specifically lane keeping assist system (lkas) and adaptive cruise control (acc), intermittently malfunctions, short-circuits, and drops connection. On a high-speed bridge en route to san francisco airport, while traveling with my teenage son, the automated steering suddenly and violently jerked completely out of the lane to the left, attempting to collide with an adjacent vehicle. A fatal crash was avoided solely by instantaneous manual driver physical intervention to overpower the electronic steering rack. Dealership service management has admitted on paper that these safety features operate at a restricted 60% to 70% capacity, making the vehicle an immediate public safety hazard on public roads. Honda corporate has failed to issue a recall or buyback over a three-month escalation matrix.

3 Assist problem of the 2025 Honda Pilot

Failure Date: 10/07/2026

While driving to work my back passenger tire bumped a shallow pothole. After the bump, several warnings came on the screen about abs, power steering, automatic bright headlight control and a couple of others. The power steering was completely out. I turned my car off and restarted my car. This restored the power steering, but there was a lane assist error and one other error. I turned around to head home and the sensors went away as if they were reset. When the vehicle was taken to the dealer it did not display that any alerts had been registered on the car and they were not able to duplicate the problem after driving the car for 50 miles. I took the car back home after getting the tires aligned. 2 weeks later the same thing happened again.

A cascade of warning errors suddenly appeared in my 2021 Honda Pilot. Lane keeping assist, adaptive cruise control, collission mitigation system, auto high bean, and road departure mitigation problem. The brake system light is also lit up. My mechanic said it is a "millimeter wave error" caused by one of the front cameras. After researching this, it seems that this is a common problem, and there is an active lawsuit.

10 Assist problem of the 2021 Honda Pilot

Failure Date: 08/28/2026

Warning lamps for lkas, acc, auto lights and brake system started to appear. Honda diagnostics have pointed to an electrical failure with the multipurpose camera. The Honda representative admitted that this is a very common failure. I was told the car is “safe to drive” but there are constant brake system warning lights flashing on my dash. The net result is that I have no ability to know whether there is an actual brake system failure if one were to occur.

11 Assist problem of the 2020 Honda Pilot

Failure Date: 08/17/2026

While driving on my way home from work (24 mile drive) I received on my dashboard faults that flashed briefly for my steering, lane keeping assistance, lane departure, forward collision, automatic emergency braking, adaptive cruise control and parking collision (warning lamps). My radio also had cut out at the same time. While that occurred my steering wheel jerked suddenly while going straight at speeds around 60mph. I brushed it off as a communication issue since it is known to occur on these vehicles, but the steering wheel jerking was new to me. Made it home turned the vehicle off (vehicle was off for 15 minutes). I started up the vehicle no warning lamps came on. But as soon as I got up to 40mph and a mile from my home the same issue occurred but more frequent, but less of the steering wheel jerking. I got where I needed to go and got back onto the road and reached 30 mph the warning lamps came on more a lot more frequently on my way home. As soon as reached my alleyway turning left, the steering wheel had a moment of locking up (about 5-10mph). This came as a shock for me. I backed up into my garage and had to turn the steering wheel left again and the same thing happened. I parked the while the vehicle was running I turned the steering wheel really fast, recreated the steering wheel locking momentarily a few times. I turned the vehicle off and tried to restart it but there was no power. Turns out that my battery had gone bad. I had no indication of a low voltage or battery issue. I replaced the battery and issue was resolved. For me and a situationally unaware driver and this issue occurs where the steering wheel jerked and/or an emergency evasive action was needed, this could cause an accident due to the sudden loss of steering. There was no indication of battery issues. No dealer or independent shops were involved. I am a mechanic myself.

16 Assist problem of the 2019 Honda Pilot

Failure Date: 07/13/2026

When I started my 2019 Honda Pilot touring car on 7/13/26 morning, where the screen where the speed usually shows showed amber colored warnings for Honda sensing features: acc, lkas, cmbs, road departure mitigation system, auto high beam. Lkas, cmbs and brake system amber icons are on. Infotainment display shows acc and cmbs has a problem. I tried cleaning the windshield and sensors in the front but same warnings still continued to show at next start up and drive. Last few days I started it still pops up so I took it to independent shop yesterday 7/15/26. They pulled a u-code for multipurpose camera, tried to clean the sensors but warnings would still show so it's a hard code now. I had them document it for me. These are safety features that came with the car, should they be failing this early on? I have not done anything to there, haven't been in any accidents involving that area and haven't had windshield replaced either. They weren't able to fix it as they don't have the calibration equipment so said we'd need to send to Honda dealer.

19 Assist problem of the 2022 Honda Pilot

Failure Date: 06/18/2026

My 2022 Honda Pilot developed an intermittent failure of the multipurpose forward camera used by the Honda sensing system. Multiple dashboard warnings appeared simultaneously, including adaptive cruise control (acc), lane keeping assist (lkas), collision mitigation braking system, road departure mitigation, auto high beam, blind spot information, and a brake system warning. The vehicle’s normal brakes continued to function, but the affected driver-assistance and collision-avoidance features became unavailable. A Honda dealership diagnosed dtc u3000-49, documented as an internal failure of the multipurpose camera, and recommended replacement and aiming/calibration of the camera. The quoted repair cost was $2,356. 95 plus tax. The failure is intermittent. On one occasion, all warning lights disappeared after starting the vehicle and the Honda sensing safety features operated normally. After the vehicle was shut off and restarted, the warnings returned and the safety features were again unavailable. Honda declined my request for goodwill assistance and advised that this is not considered a known camera problem. I am reporting this because failure of a single camera disables multiple collision-avoidance and driver-assistance safety systems. I am concerned that other 2022 Honda Pilot owners may experience the same u3000-49 multipurpose-camera failure.

21 Assist problem of the 2020 Honda Pilot

Failure Date: 06/10/2026

At every vehicle startup, multiple warning messages appear on the dashboard indicating failure of the driver assistance safety system. The warnings include collision mitigation system problem, lane keeping assist system problem, and auto high beam system problem. The issue occurs immediately upon ignition while the vehicle is stationary and resets each time the vehicle is turned off and restarted. The problem is persistent and has not resolved over time. The vehicle was inspected by an authorized dealership and diagnosed with a diagnostic trouble code indicating an internal failure of the forward-facing camera unit used for the driver assistance system. The repair recommendation was replacement of the camera module and calibration. This malfunction affects the vehicle’s advanced driver assistance safety systems, which are designed to support collision avoidance and lane keeping. The failure may result in reduced or non-functioning safety features while driving, increasing the risk of unsafe operation without full driver assistance functionality. No windshield replacement or external impact has occurred that would explain camera damage. The issue began without any known external cause and continues consistently at every startup.

25 Assist problem of the 2022 Honda Pilot

Failure Date: 05/22/2026

Windshield cracked majorly after being hit by a small rock on the highway. Even after having it replaced and the camera recalibrated, 7 safety warnings of the adas come on. Reportedly, the frontcamera has failed, which is concerning in a car that has less than 50k and is just about 4yrs old. I believe this is a larger issue, the windshield truly should not have broken that easily and the camera failing so soon is problematic. It is also a very expensive fix.

The vehicle previously experienced a steering wheel locking issue and was taken to the dealer for repair. The dealer stated the issue was repaired on December 11, 2024. On February 24, 2026, while driving on a public street, the vehicle hesitated or jerked slightly during acceleration and then appeared to operate normally. After a few minutes, multiple warning messages suddenly appeared on the dashboard, and the steering wheel became extremely difficult to turn and effectively locked while I was driving. I immediately activated my hazard lights. I was unable to safely pull over because the steering wheel would not respond properly, which placed me and other drivers at risk. I had to continue driving slowly until I found a side road where I could safely stop. I turned the vehicle off. When restarting, the warning messages reappeared. After several minutes, the warning lights cleared, and the steering wheel was no longer locked but felt loose and unstable ("wobbly"). I cautiously resumed driving. After several minutes, the steering began to feel normal again. The following warnings were displayed: hill start assist problem, trailer stability assist problem, hill descent control problem, adaptive cruise control problem, lane keeping assist problem, collision mitigation braking system problem, road departure mitigation problem, low speed braking control problem, auto high-beam problem, electric power steering system problem – steering assist not available, and "stop. Steering assist reduced. Stop driving when safe. " the failed component appears to be the electric power steering system and related driver-assistance systems. The vehicle is available for inspection. The problem was previously addressed by a dealer but has reoccurred. No prior warning lights were present before this incident. The failure occurred suddenly while driving.
