Warning Problems of Honda Pilot - part 2

The windshield camera has malfunctioned causing 5 different safety warnings to appear and these functions are unavailable now. It has been evaluated by a dealership and they claim that it has to be replaced at a cost of $2100. This is a pretty widespread issue in these Pilots with varying mileage. I would expect much better from a Honda product.

Front camera sensor (behind rear view mirror) has failed prematurely therefore causing multiple dash lights to come on such as acc, lkas, collision mitigation system, brake system. Confirmed battery is not the issue as it is in great condition.

Problems started showing on car a week ago. Tested battery and it was not holding a charge. Replaced battery and problem still persisted. Car is now at dealership and they are quoting close to $2000 due to failure for internal windshield camera. Car has right over 78k miles. This is a safety issue.

All of the lights on the dash came on and the power steering stopped working while driving on the highway. I was in the number one lane and had to merge across four lanes to pull over with no power steering. I shut the car off and waited a few minutes. The lights were still on the dash but the power steering was working. This is the second time this has happened in the last two weeks.

Issue with the forward collision sensor, lane keep departure, and adaptive speed control. It has a mind of its own if it works or not. Some times it working then while drive the warnings and dings start going off while driving. There isn't a way to use cruise control if there is an issue with the system.

After driving my car from the dealer after purchase all the safety features have warning lights on the dash. Break system error ,electric power steering problem ,road departure mitigation problem, collision mitigation problem, lane keep assist problem, adaptive cruise control problem, tsa problem, hill start assist problem, vsa problem, abs problem, electric parking brake problem. Its seems like all of the safety features are not working. I took the car to the dealer and said it was just a battery issue, they went ahead and replace the battery but it was still the same, all the error message came out soon after driving from the dealer service department. After that they said they will replace the speed wheel sensor. I got my car back hopefully that resolved the issues. This cars should not pass qc, this problem happened right after driving the vehicle of the dealer lot after purchase.

Emissions system problem- unknown reason.

Failed component: lane departure system camera - Honda (p/n 36160-tg8-a51). This camera has completely failed which completely shuts down the following safety systems in this Honda Pilot: adaptive cruise control forward collision warning lane departure warning lane keeping assistance it also fully disables the cruise control system. I have attempted to have this repaired at our Honda dealership - but parts are on backorder without a known delivery time.

Camera unit failure causing failure of safety systems and resultant safety issues.

Multiple lights, for acc, lane departure, forward collision warning, and lane keeping assistance system. None of the systems works. Safety of myself and others put at risk due to systems not working and preventing collision. The problem was confirmed by the dealer. Multipurpose camera not operating, required replacement of camera for systems to operate.

The front camera which controls all of the safety features went out! 1 week ago. It has been confirmed and I am now having to pay almost $2700. 00 to have it fixed. I am really upset to see how many issues this year of the car has. And the fact that Honda has known about it since 2019 and did nothing to fix them. There are 318 complaints on this car and I’m guessing over half of them have to do with the front camera. It is showing 5 safety codes.

My 2019 Honda Pilot randomly started showing all these errors at once: lkas, collision mitigation problem, road departure mitigation system problem, auto highbeam problem, adaptive cruise control problem. After speaking with the Honda dealership, they said this is a chronic problem with 2018 to new Honda vehicles. He stated he's unsure why there is not a recall for this yet. They stated that the issue is the front dash camera, which will need replacement. Replacement is around $2,000.

Lane departure front facing projection camera suddenly went out disabling multiple safety features of the car. The part number for the car is 36160-tg8-a83. This car only has ~86,000 miles and this is unacceptable. This failure disables the lane keep assist, lane departure, auto high/low beam, adaptive cruise control, auto braking safety features and causes the brake light system light to come on. Apparently, this is a common issue and should be investigated. The parts are on back order nationally and good luck finding a used one.

I own a 2020 Honda Pilot ex with approximately 58,000 miles. Every time I drive on two-lane roads, I receive a bright orange “brake” warning from the automatic emergency braking system when vehicles in the opposite lane are passing by. The system falsely detects an imminent collision, even though the oncoming vehicles are safely in their lane. The system then applies the brakes unnecessarily. Most of the time it brakes mildly, but on at least two occasions it has braked very hard, causing the vehicle behind me to nearly rear-end my car. This creates a significant and dangerous situation, as it could easily cause an accident. I now have to disable the automatic braking system every time I drive. During my last drive, after disabling the system, I received a warning message stating: “abs failure — take to dealer. ” I have also experienced dangerous behavior from the lane departure warning/assist system. When exiting the freeway, if the lane lines disappear or become unclear, the vehicle has slammed on the brakes suddenly. On one occasion, this caused me severe whiplash. Thankfully, I was alone in the car — if my young children had been passengers, they could have suffered serious neck injuries. I have taken the vehicle to the Honda dealer and independent mechanics. Each time, they have only cleared the codes and told me it was due to “dirty sensors. ” the warnings and braking issues, however, keep coming back. This issue is persistent, reproducible, and unsafe. The automatic emergency braking, lane departure, and abs systems are not functioning properly and create a real danger to myself, my passengers, and other drivers on the road.

The dashboard looks like a christmas tree all the brake lights are on, I googled this and its supposedly a known issues. I'm not sure if the brakes are safe or not.

To whom it may concern, I am submitting this complaint through the national highway traffic safety administration regarding a serious and unresolved safety-related defect on my 2019 Honda Pilot (VIN: [xxx] ]). The vehicle’s front camera system failed, disabling essential safety features including lane keeping assist, adaptive cruise control, and collision mitigation braking. These systems are part of Honda’s advanced driver assistance system (adas) and are integral to safe vehicle operation. Their failure constitutes a critical safety defect, not a routine maintenance issue. Misrepresentation by american Honda I was initially assigned to a case manager named christian at american Honda. During our recorded phone conversations, christian falsely claimed that the discount I received from the dealership was provided by american Honda, even though the dealership is an independent franchisee and american Honda has no control or direct relationship over the dealership. Upon direct inquiry, the dealership confirmed that the discount was offered solely through my business account and my relationship with them and had no connection to american Honda. When I requested written confirmation of this claim, american Honda refused to provide any documentation, despite the fact that all conversations were recorded by them. These recordings contain critical evidence of misrepresentation and should be reviewed as part of this dispute. If necessary, I am prepared to request that these recordings be subpoenaed for formal review. Ongoing safety concerns prior to the complete failure of the camera, I experienced multiple false collision warnings, including dashboard alerts, steering wheel vibration, and automatic braking — even when vehicles were traveling in the opposite direction and posed no threat. These false activations were not only alarming but dangerous, and they indicate a pattern of malfunction in the camera system long before its final failure. Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.

All safety alerts started showing as the forward camera has an internal failure as diagnosed by the dealer.

Acc, lkas, collision avoidance, and other safety features lights all came on at once.

The adas camera has failed. It is extremely common. When it fails, all the lights for every system of adas comes on. None of them work. And it is not possible to turn off. Furthermore it sets codes for the brakes and turns on the brake warning lights. So none of the brake assist systems work either. Honda refuses to warranty any of these systems when the camera fails. It is across their entire line of vehicles with adas. If they can’t build a functional system, it should not have the system. Also, the system functions extremely poorly, when it was operating. It will drive the vehicle, unassisted, down to 20 mph, then just shuts off and lets the vehicle coast, unguided. Also, if the cruise is set and lane keeping on, and it can’t find lane lines, particularly where lanes merge, it will often veer left, into oncoming traffic. I have tested both of these, when the system was functioning “correctly”. The cruise and lane keeping just shuts off, at any speed, and lets the car go where ever it would without input. It is extremely dangerous.

I have photos, but unable to up load at this time. Suddenly, 9 different consecutive warning messages with bell associated with each, appeared on the instrument panel. The barrage of these 9 messages continued until I shut the engine off. I was in a very congested parking lot when this began. The Pilot was subsequently checked for codes and battery condition. The evidence suggests the vsa modulator. The messages continue when powered up with or without the engine running. Lane keep assist problem. Lkas all wheel drive system problem. Vsa problem. Acc adaptive cruise control problem problem. Road departure mitigation system problem. Collision mitigation system problem. Collision mitigation system problem. Tsa trailer stability assist problem. Hill start assist problem. Power steering system (eps) problem. Plus: awd, brake system and steering caution lights remain on continuously. I am very glad we were not towing our travel trailer this week.

The 2021 Honda Pilot would randomly flash brake, which would lock up the steering wheel, electronic warnings going off when nothing was there, and then all of the cmbs warnings came on. Dealer charged for diagnosis, and requires $2,300. 00 to fix the sensor. The vehicle was never in an accident, and various ghost electronic issues would be present over the last few years before the system failed with multiple warnings.

All warning lights triggered on by faulty rear view camera sensor making one unable to discern if there is a true issue with one of the systems.

The front camera driving assist malfunctioned, causing all driving safety mitigation to be stopped. This is not an issue due to the driver, it is an issue with the camera either malfunctioning from heat from sun exposure or being faulty due to manufacturing issues. I reported to auto national Honda valencia & they said it would cost approximately $2200 to fix. Dash light did come on and are continuing to go on until the faulty camera is replaced.

My 2019 Honda Pilot has 47817 miles on it. Purchased new from dealership. Been garaged entire life other than normal routine driving. Recently had adas warning lights. Reported the problem to Honda hq in torrance California. They issued a claim number. I took it to Honda dealer where it was diagnosed with error code u3000-49. They quoted me approx $2600 to replace and calibrate the new multi purpose camera. When reviewing the internet for others with similar problem I noticed this was a safety issue that was far too common among relatively new Honda vehicles. I received a discount from Honda and had the service. The discount was only given when I complained about this issue as well as my 2013 Honda Pilot I purchased brand new which the clear coat paint started to come off the roof and hond of the vehicle about a month after I purchased my 2019 Honda. When reporting the problem with the 2013 Pilot losing the clear coat back in 2019 Honda told me it was too late for them to do anything. Honda should have recalled vehicles with peeling clear coat as well as the defective adas system.

Had veh fixed for fuel injection issues in 2023 paid 1500 repair complained to handa America and they paid it. . Car was still under warranty. . Recall fuel injection in Feb 2025 after Honda buena park fixed it had same hesitation issues between 30 50 mph after just 2 weeks after repair. Took it back had to pay 250 for dialysis no answer. .

Now why is a local auto parts store able to find problem for free but Honda wants 3000 to guess. Honda America was no help. This is now the 3rd issues with fuel system only have 77000 miles on this car.

For about a year now the front facing camera throw 5 warnings, my cruise dont work, and it cost 2200 to fix. I follow a Honda group on fb and apparently this is the main complaint. Something needs to be done bc it is very un sage to have all these safety features and they may r may not work.

My car turned the brake light on, the cruise control stopped working, it has the lane departure warning on, the sensor on the windshield apparently is not working. . I can't use the cruise control nor the lane departure assistant and I am concerned that when needed the emergency breaks won't work. . This is a serious issue Honda should remedy.

All the associated warnings are on dash, diagnosed at local Honda dealership with code u 3006-16. Advised multi camera failure and requested $1600 to repair. Immediate after I am now getting a transmission warning problem on dash.

Vehicle warning lights randomly appeared on dash adaptive cruise control vehicle stability assist hill start assist trailer stability assist collision mitigation system assist departure mitigation.

2019 Honda Pilot exl all of sudden multipurpose camera doesn't work. As a result of the camera issue break system sign came on and all safety feature turn off. I didn't have any accident prior to the sign came on. Dealer is asking 1800+tax to replace the camera.

I purchased my Honda Pilot 2021 5 years ago. Currently still making payments on it. The collison mitigation system warning sign came up on my dashboard about 1 year ago. After that warning sign came on 4 others popped up. Road departure mitigation system, auto high-beam problem, adaptive cruise control problem, and lane keeping assist problem. Having all these warning signs come pop up on dashboard is very distracting while driving. Non of these controls are working and I have taken it to Honda to do an inspection. Since, its out of warranty I have to pay out of pocket $2,137. 63 to get multipurpose camera unit replaced. Let alone this vehicle is still not paid off. I've also had issues with the starter shutting off while driving. It had a recall and I did get it replaced but I'm still having issues. This is a serious safety problem due to it shutting off while on the street. I been in life threating situations due to this problem. Honda needs to make sure there vehicles are safe for customers. T.

Sensor lights turned on and frequent events occurred causing lights to come on. Took to the dealer and informed me code u3000-49 multi purpose camera unit wave radar internal electronic failure upon researching several other people have the same issue and has not been resolved.

Without any advance warning, at times our lane departure warning system turns off with occasionally having the cruise control suddenly disengage. This could be a real problem when your not expecting it. Emailed Honda and they stated that there was no fix for it.

The braking system failed lane keeping assist stopped working adaptive cruise control stopped working forward collision warning stopped working it does not handle as smoothly since the sensors stopped working I parked in the shade I keep the sensors clean but they only will work when it’s cooler then 65 degrees outside.

The collision mitigation braking system problem, adaptive cruise control problem, lane keeping assist problem, road departure mitigation system problem and auto high-beam problem. All these are keep showing on my dashboard.
