1 Engine Grinding Noise problem of the 2019 Honda Pilot

Failure Date: 12/28/2019

My 2019 Honda randomly brakes while I'm driving almost causing someone to rear end me, and other times almost causing me to be in accidents. In addition, at 19k miles my transmission went out (started catching, making a grinding noise) while I was driving on the interstate and caused the vehicle to decelerate. I pulled off the road turned the vehicle off, once restarted it decelerated and the transmission light, emissions light and blind spot light came on the dash board.

2 Engine Grinding Noise problem of the 2013 Honda Pilot

Failure Date: 03/04/2019

The car is making these horrible noises. The dealership claims everything was find when they sold it to us. We took it back a few days later for them to fix it and they claimed to fix it but never did. We have taken it to multiple mechanics and they can not figure out what it is after have it at least 3 or 4 days. It's like a vibration/grinding noise. The alignment is fine but it still pulls and the steering wheel is off. It always makes a grinding noise and the vibration and grinding starts when you are driving and it hits a constant speed even when you dont use the cruise control.

3 Engine Grinding Noise problem of the 2011 Honda Pilot

Failure Date: 12/28/2012

When I started the car this morning, I heard a high-pitched grinding noise - something I've never heard before. Driving at 30mph, the car suddenly accelerated as I applied the brakes rounding a corner. I could hear the engine revving up so I quickly shifted it into neutral until it went back to normal. Then shifted it into drive and continued on.
