Other Fuel System Tank Assembly Problems of Honda Pilot

For the last few months we have been smelling fuel in the cabin when driving at slow speeds. Also when the fuel tank is topped off, we smell fuel when parked in the garage for 1 to 2 days afterwards. Took the vehicle to independent shop who advised they see signs of small fuel run-off from top side of tank. They performed a system pressure test and the evaporative side of the fuel tank failed the pressure test. The vehicle is officially not part of recall listed by Honda technical service bulletin 16-051 or 17-021. The replacement tank part no. 17044-tg7-a00 or 17044-tg7-a01 is not available from any Honda oem dealer due to backorder without any dates. We were advised to ensure vehicle is parked outside of garage for fume and fire safety. Called Honda automobile customer service recall line, they only can escalate as a goodwill request for this safety issue.

Check engine light on and when diagnosed by the repair shop the code p0456 which is very small evap leak. This should have been taken care of with the recall on this car. The repair shop printed all of the recalls and told me most likely it would need the fuel tank replaced which is cover under a recall. They told me to go to the dealership and see of the recall work has been completed. The dealership advised that the recall was done in the past.

When my car fuel went down to empty the light came on and I pulled over to get gas. When I pushed the automatic release button my fuel door would not open. I searched up possible causes and found a video of a man demonstrating where you can find a manual lever to pole to release the fuel door. I found the lever and pulled it at the door would not open. Thankfully I was not too far away from home and drove home on my empty tank. If I had been somewhere far away this could have been disastrous. I took it to the Honda dealer who had to pull apart half of my car to get to the place to fix it. I had also read online that this has happened to other Honda Pilot owners. It seems dangerous.

I've had several issues with my 2016 Honda Pilot in the past few months. I currently have 110k miles on my vehicle but my problems began at around 80k. My check engine light and several other lights illuminate constantly. At first they would light up and go away. Brought it to service. They said there were no recalls and they change my spark plugs and told me to drive my car on at least a half tank of gas. Problem continued and then my car started running rough and idling rougher. I brought it in again and was told I needed to replace my fuel injectors. That was taken care and I still have a check engine light illuminates along with emissions system problem warming and my car still runs rough and has trouble accelerating. Song with all of these issues I've also had to replace my ignition and key fob and my auto start is not working. I have over a100k on the car which I understand can cause wear and tear but all of these problems far exceed the definition of normal wear and tear. I'd like to know if there is a recall on anything and what can be done to remedy these situations. My car is at service yet again trying to find out what is causing it to run so rough. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Gas leaked from the top side of fuel tank under the driver side of vehicle. It has done this two times now while being filled up at two separate gas stations. Both of which were smooth flat surfaces. It does not overflow from the nozzle insert where you pump gas at. It comes from somewhere on the top side of tank and leaks until the gas goes below the spot from which it leaks.

Fuel gauge odometer. Fuel gauge reading stoped working about 9 months ago. Fuel tank is 100% full with fuel but the gauge is reading slightly above half full. This is dangerous and hazardous to me, my family and to others. I drive on the highways and streets daily and I'm afraid it may run out of fuel without notice. And cause other cars going into my car and someone will get hurt. Called Honda company and unable to help since I do have high millage on the car and out of their warrenty. I explained to them and I expressed my concern but they asked me to get it done on my own expense. I do urge that this matter to escalate to higher level and have Honda manufactures take responsibility and get more safer cars on the road.

Fuel tank-- the fuel tank will not fill at a normal rate, it continues to shut off as if the tank is full. Very annoying as it takes lots of time to fill the tank please advise roger iveson.

I noticed gasoline smell from the engine while driving in the city and when it is in park after use for several days. Did not see anything in the engine or under the car that was leaking. Then one day, I opened the hood again and found that a mist of gasoline was coming from a hole/crack from the fuel feed hose fitting and fuel feed line that runs back under the car to the fuel tank. I notified my mechanic at automotive service center and the vehicle was towed to his shop. They found that the gasoline made its way through the o ring and into the plastic covering of the metal fuel feed fitting hose line and ate through the plastic and caused it to leak. The mechanic removed the fuel tank and replaced it with a new fuel feed line. It cost me $790. 74 to have it replaced.

I was driving for 500 miles one go, the weather temperature was 93f I had smelled gas I stopped the vehicle and checked I found the gas tank has melted due to heat comes from the muffler runs under the right side of the tank, good news the gas was is not that hot to ignite and burn, I wonder how the tank material could melt in this condition it has to stand the expected temperature.

The contact owns a 2017 Honda Pilot. While attempting to fill up the fuel tank, the contact noticed that ice was lodged in between the first and second fuel nozzles. The contact had to chip away the ice to fill up the tank. The dealer (boch Honda, 279 providence hwy, norwood, MA 02062) was aware of the failure and stated that Honda was working on something in the next few weeks regarding the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was contacted, but could not assist. The failure mileage was 800. The VIN was unavailable.

2016 Honda had recall for fuel tank leakage. My VIN out of that range but I notice recently my Honda Pilot 2016 have leakage too. When fueling I saw underneath car there's fuel dropping. Honda said my car not in the range. So I want to claim report there is more car out there exposed safety and environmental hazard situation.

My family traveled in this vehicle to carlsbad last week for vacation, including myself, my wife, our 13 year old daughter and 11 year old son. The vehicle worked perfectly until we were on our way home Saturday, July 22, 2017. We were on I-10 approximately 1 hour east of phoenix in the right lane with the cruse set at the 75mph speed limit. There were no cars in front of us for at least a mile. All the sudden, without any warning whatsoever, nearly all the vehicle system lights came on and the vehicle slowed at an emergency rate down to approximately 40mph in about 2 seconds. I immediately hit �cancel� on the cruise and stepped on the gas, but the vehicle continued to slow quickly. I immediately started to move to the shoulder of the road and noticed the 18 wheel tractor trailer behind us make an emergency swerve to the left and missed hitting us by inches. We were nearly involved in an accident that could have easily been fatal. All this took place in about a 5-10 second timeframe. After stopping on the shoulder of the road I made note that the vehicle was showing a transmission problem, an emissions problem, an awd problem and I think just about every other issue light was lit up. I tried to get the vehicle back on the road, but it would not go any higher than 3rd gear and the dash kept indicating a transmission and awd problem. I pulled over again and turned the vehicle off and back on. At that point the only indicator light that lit up was the emission system problem (see attached picture). I reentered the interstate and the transmission was working properly again. We stopped at the next gas station and filled the gas tank and upon restarting the engine the emission light was still on. We carefully drove home at 65�70mph. The following day (Sunday), the emission light was no longer on.

For few years I have been noticing terrible mileage, but thought the car was getting older. For definitely an year, there is a noticeable smell of gasoline in the car, again thought its the sign of an old car. But, last weekend I realized that this is a safety issue and finally got around whats happening. The fuel started dripping at the fuel tank - fuel line and is dripping at 1 drop per minute . . Not sure if it drips at the same rate all the time. Reading at all the complaints, it seems like NHTSA would only consider anything after someone dies. Sounds like useless posting over here, but just doing it for the benefit of others. This car had been leaking for a while, though the drip started very recently, thus giving very low mileage. This is a safety issue which should result in a recall.

Gas can be empty and when you attempt to fill up tank it shuts off as if tank is full. Spent 400. 15 on 10/25/13 for fuel vapor control valve yonder dealer thought this might be causing it. This worked for few weeks then it began again but seemed to let us fill it up if we drove for a few miles before attempting to fill up the gas tank. Now it doesn't matter how far we drive the car the gas will not pump into the tank it can take us up to 30 minutes to pump a few gallons of gas. The Honda dealer is as much of a loss as to what is causing this to take place. The car has not been involved in any accidents and is causing extreme stress as to how and what it will take to get the gas to pump correctly.

The contact owns a 2004 Honda Pilot. The contact stated while adding gasoline to the fuel tank it would spill out preventing the contact from adding fuel to its capacity. While inside the vehicle the contact also smelled a strong odor of gasoline. The vehicle was taken to the dealer for diagnostic testing where they stated that the gasoline valve caused the failure and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired; however, the failure recurred immediately. The manufacturer was later contacted and advised the contact to have the dealership diagnose the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 105,000. The current mileage was approximately 120,000.

Often during refueling of my vehicle the gas pump shuts off after a few moments of refueling. At times, the gasoline backs up in the tube and spews back out onto the vehicle and the ground despite having a near empty fuel tank . It has become necessary to squeeze the pump handle lightly and trickle the gasoline into the fuel tank. I have also found this to occur at different gas stations as well. Thank you for your assistance into this matter.

Fuel filler neck on my 2004 Pilot had a fuel leak. My check engine light came on and when the vehicle was serviced a leak in the neck of the gas tank filler tube was detected and replaced. The vehicle had about 95,000 miles.

We have bought two Honda Pilots and are having the same problem with our new one. Fuel evap. System, keeps having problems sending codes to the computers. Could lead to a dangerous incident. Problem recurs alot, esp after you fuel up your tank or is 2/3 full. Honda could not find any thing wrong the first time, now we'll see what they say this second time on our brand new one.
