I have a 2014 Honda Pilot, and while driving on the road, the car started to violently shake, and the engine turned off. The inspection from dealer indicated code p0303- misfire cylinder due to fouled #3 spark plug caused by worn piston rings. The spark plug was found to be melted. Honda quoted $4000 to fix the issue, and the concern is that the 2014 model could have also been included in the 2013 and earlier models. It appears that Honda has requested dealers to send in reports if this particular issue has been identified. Even though the dealership was aware of the diagnosis, they have not offered to cover the repairs for this known issue on previous models of Pilots. Instead, they are offering to buy back our vehicle. After further research, there has been a lawsuit "Honda engine misfire" with this same issue with Honda Pilot for year 2013 and prior. I want to know if my 2014 used 2013 parts, and therefore resulted to the manufacturer defect on my vehicle. The dealer has offered to buy back the car immediately and has not addressed our concerns with the vehicle having a faulty mfg part. Honda has not responded back to the issue and the issue has not been resolved. My concern is if this issue is not fixed that the engine may further malfunction causing more damage to the car.

The seatbelt that serves the middle row center seat detached from its attachment point during normal use without an accident. We are the original owners of the car with no accidents. My daughter has sat in that seat for 4. 5 years and 50,000 miles. She is currently 10 years old. Had we been in an accident, I believe that she would have not been protected by her seatbelt. One day, we noticed a large bulge in the back of the car roof that we hadn’t seen before. The next day, when my daughter puller her seatbelt out, there was resistance when she pulled. Once the seatbelt did come out, white fabric came out of the seatbelt hole and the seatbelt fabric was torn/frayed. We brought the car into the dealership where we purchased it. Upon inspection, the bulge was the reel assembly that had detached from the frame of the car. The seatbelt assembly was wedged between the metal roof and the fabric trim - not attached to anything. It is being repaired under warranty on 6/16/2023 at the dealership.

Passanger seatbelt will not retract. Took to dealership and was told there would be a $150 inspection fee before they would even look at it. Because it is a safety item no third parties are permitted to sell them. Understand that the part eventually wears out, but the dealership gouging coustomers is excessive. Right to repair should extend to seatbelts.

The driver's belt buckle receiver started malfunctioning and would click, but the seat belt would not lock at 93k miles. The belt would come unlatched while driving. The red release button would stick in the down position as well. Honda dealer said they would replace it under warranty, but it was non the less scary not to have a working seat belt. I question the quality of the part as I have had many other Hondas with 2-3 times the miles that never had a seat belt failure. I am driving a 2022 Honda Pilot loaner with 600 miles, and while the seat belt locks, it looks like it could eventually fail as well. I would feel safer if a Honda engineer inspected the buckle locks.
Brakes seem to stop suddenly must brake slowly to avoid a sudden stop seatbelt locks up if I do not pull it forward and leave room in the belt so that it isn't completely holding me in also the driver seat will only adjust sideways.

I got this car as a loan from a 3rd party dealer ship and they never told me it had a recall days after the airbag light pops up in the dashboard I took it to get service and they stated that the problem was fixed. The light on the dashboard was gone. A couple days ago the light came back and it makes a weird noise when you turn it on and the car gets humidity so fast the windows fog up and I have to turn the ac on. It doesn’t feel safe to drive it at times but I have to for work. I just want to make sure it’s safe to drive from la to sylmar I’m afraid if it gets to hot or humid that the airbag will go off, and I’m paying way more than I expected each month for the car and it doesn’t feel safe.
Hood - flutters and wobbles significantly at highway speeds. Per recall check, this vehicle is not included. Seat belt - more of a personal thing, but the driver's seat belt cuts into the driver's neck, even when high of shoulder strap is adjusted. When using a device to help control where the shoulder strap lays, it was found that the driver's seat belt is much shorter than all other in the vehicle. Therefore not allowing the driver to use something to adjust the shoulder portion and still safely check blind spots.

Drivers side front seatbelt webbing unraveling. Occasionally becoming caught in belt buckle assembly. Brought car to dealer on 8/6/21 and they wanted to charge over $500 to fix it. I said it was absolutely absurd and that it should be covered under one of my warranties purchased with the car. After some back an forth they agreed to warranty the repair and let me take the car home. Its now been over 4 weeks of them telling me the seat belt has still not arrived at the dealer and the safety issue is growing much larger as the seat belt webbing is getting worse each day. It seems they are truly not wanting to honor a warranty and are trying to do anything they can to either not fix the problem or make me pay over $500 to fix their defective product.

Second seatbelt failure. I previously reported second row passenger seatbelt that was found completely detached from anchor, at point where belt was looped and sewn. This was replaced by dealer. The second row middle belt locked in extended position at that time, and I requested dealer check this and repair or replace as needed. This was supposedly also done. The row 2 middle belt is rarely used, using first time since repair was reportedly done, found webbing that is frayed 50%+ through, in portion that is retracted when not being used. I checked all belts when I found this, and found fraying at the 3rd row middle seatbelt (buckle portion webbing), with associated damage to the plastic where the third row seat folds down. It appears the belt webbing has been rubbing on this plastic part of seat back, causing damage. This belt is also rarely used: not at all in last 13 months, and around 5-6 times, every 6-10 weeks in non-pandemic times. The third row is normally kept folded down, with the middle row belt retracted into ceiling when not in use. I am left wondering if the geometry of the belt placement is causing mechanical/friction damage, if there are sharp edges in the 2nd row middle belt storage (overhead), or if there was chemical damage to some belts in the factory. It is odd and concerning to find multiple issues with the belts, and I want all to be replaced, and their housing inspected for possible points causing the damage.

I have never been in an accident other than being rear ended and it was not major. My air bag light would not go out. My seat belt alarms would no longer work and my locks would not work automatically. My air bag module(srs unit) needed replaced. It effected my airbags, seat belts and my power locks. The dealership did not know that the locks could even be effected but as soon as is was replaced the locks worked as they did prior to the malfunction. I have had a couple mechanics tell me that the module should not ever go bad unless I have been in an accident.
Tmy vehicle, a 2007 Honda Pilot is subject to a recall, and I only, in the last two days, became aware of same. I called a local dealer but the person advised that they could not make any repairs at no cost to me.

My fianc� was driving to my doctor to follow up surgery, two blocks from 2 blocks from the house we approached to traffic light was on red and she was applying the brakes when we were just about at light suddenly the car accelerated girlfriend had her foot on the brake but the car kept going we strike a car and hit a parked car bad accident, 3 people got hurt. Every time I watch the video I am more convinced that something when wrong with car systems this happens on kennedy boulevard and audobon st on 12/11/2020 around 11:05 am sunny clear day. I have a video.
I found the seatbelt end that should attach the belt to the anchor on my passenger side second row detached today. The belt webbing is frayed through both the webbing and also the sewn portion that makes the loop attaching the belt to the floor/anchor. The anchor is below a panel, so I can't see if there was a sharp edge there that rubbed/cut the area, or it just unraveled through an area that was not properly sewn. The vehicle was stationary, and my daughter reached for the belt to buckle (she uses booster), noticing the detachment before we drove.
Center rear seat belt ended up around 3 year olds neck and everytime he moved it got tighter and tighter. The seat belt anchor is not easy to detach incase this happens. We ended up unbuckling him and turning his whole body to get it off his neck. Both 2nd and 3rd row seats use this kind of anchor.
I thought finally I could start enjoying the luxury in a car but Honda company painted my face shame by making me feel disappointed with their product. My car steering is so hard for me a woman, the air conditioning will not blow to the right direction even when I set the mode, the belt is not properly positioned, the roof paint is peeling off in lee's than a year I bought it, this is 2013 vehicle , this really broke my heart as a single mother, I have a lot on my plate already, now add all these. Somebody please help me, I'm loosing it , please help me😭😭😭😭.

Tl-the contact owns a 2009 Honda Pilot. The contact stated that while driving approximately 10 mph, the driver side seat belt, became undone. The contact also stated that the failkure occurred for the past six months. The vehicle was not taken to the dealer for a diagnosis. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 152,000. Bp.
Driver's seat belt does not work properly. It is at least 10 inches shorter that all other seat belts in the vehicle. This makes it impossible to look around and see clearly when backing, turning, and merging. Also, there is not an elr with this belt. This seems like a huge safety issue.
While driving on the highway the side airbag by the driver popped out and blew up. No collision no blown tires. The vehicle was in motion on a highway.
The passenger seatbelt mechanical spring is rusted out. Honda only warranties it for 150k miles. This being a life saving piece of equipment it should have a lifetime warranty and engineered with a stainless spring.
Driving in the city when the 3 vehicle collision happened going 25-30mph. The first car stopped suddenly to let pedestrians cross the street. Then the second car followed and I did not catch the stop in time. Front air bags did not deploy when my car rear ended the other vehicles. And driver seatbelt did not lock. Injuries of whiplash, concussion and a broken nose resulted from this.
Seat belt buckles come undone after clicking them into place. Then have to repeat clicking and sometimes do not even know it's not properly clicked until seatbelt comes undone.

Tl the contact owns a 2006 Honda Pilot. While driving 55 mph, the driver's side curtain air bag and driver's seat air bag deployed without warning or an impact. Also, the driver's seat belt tightened up unexpectedly. The contact swerved the vehicle slightly due to being constricted by the seat belt. There were no warning indicators illuminated. The vehicle was towed to fairfield Honda (201 lycoming mall dr, muncy, PA 17756, (570) 326-2858), but was not diagnosed or repaired at the contact's request. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was unknown.
The driver's side seat belt is considerably shorter than the front passenger seat belt. The driver's seat belt is so constricting that you can't turn to look when changing lanes. So the need to drive without using the seat belt is an issue of safety. I am an average size person and this has never been a problem in any other vehicle I have owned.
When using the drivers side seat belt, there is no extra give in the belt. The belt is very tight and the driver can not even turn to check their blind spot. This is very dangerous. I have had this vehicle since September 2018. I have tried adjusting the seat further away from the wheel, however, the belt seems too short.
Driver's front seat belt is drastically shorter than passenger front seat belt. I am restricted in ability to look around and make sure there is no other vehicle in my blind spot. There is no fix for this per the dealer as Honda does not acknowledge an error. This is a serious safety issue and needs to be addressed by the manufacturer.
Driver seat - seat belt nylon thread is splitting.
The driver side seatbelt on my 2018 Honda Pilot is not the standard size and is short. It does not extend like the passenger seatbelt and prevents the driver from leaning forward to check out it is safe to turn. The driver seatbelt does not lock in place when stopping vehicle.
Driver side seat belt is short locks. In addition, it prohibits and restricts driver from leaning forward. This causes an unsafe driving condition.
The driver's side seat belt is too short. It is tight across my chest and the left side of my neck. The dealer offers no fix for the other than a seat belt extender which Honda does not sell. I am 5�2� tall and 220 lbs. Yes I am over weight but I've owned 8 other Honda's and have never had this problem before. I am now stuck with a brand new vhicle I don't feel safe driving.
Drivers side seat belt is too short, not as long as passengers seat belt. It prohibits / restricts leaning forward to check oncoming traffic (both looking left and right) at intersections and merging situations. I believe this causes an unsafe driving condition.
