2019 Honda Pilot Complaints

While operating my 2019 Honda Pilot, the vehicle experienced a sudden and complete failure of its advanced driver safety systems. Without warning, a cascade of simultaneous error messages illuminated on the dashboard, completely disabling the Collision Mitigation Braking System (CMBS), Road Departure Mitigation, Adaptive Cruise Control, and Lane Keeping Assist networks.This defect renders critical safety features completely inoperable and causes severe driver distraction due to persistent dashboard warnings flashing on the loop. This failure occurred when turning on the car. The sudden loss of safety systems while traveling at highway speeds poses an unreasonable risk of a crash, as the vehicle can no longer utilize automatic emergency braking or lane assistance features.The vehicle currently has about 88000 miles. The dealership has indicated the issue stems from a failure of the front-facing windshield camera sensor, matching the systematic defect patterns alleged in active federal c...

While operating my 2019 Honda Pilot, the vehicle experienced a sudden mechanical failure of the factory moonroof assembly. While driving, the moonroof became permanently stuck open / began violently grinding and refused to close.This mechanical failure presents an immediate safety and security hazard. Because the glass cannot be closed, it exposes the interior cabin and driver to distracting external wind turbulence, weather, and road debris while traveling at highway speeds. Furthermore, the inability to secure the vehicle leaves it vulnerable to theft and environmental damage. The vehicle currently has 88000 miles.Inspection reveals that the failure stems from fragile internal components within the track assembly and drive motor. This structural failure requires a costly, full replacement of the track frame mechanism. I request that the NHTSA track these mechanical track failures to determine if a formal safety investigation or recall is warranted for the 2019 Pilot's moonroof assemb...

Additional Comments for Complaint #11750912:I am uploading photographic evidence of severe material delamination on my vehicle's front radar emblem shield (Part #71125-TG7-A51) [71125-TG7-A51].This manufacturing defect caused a critical safety failure: my vehicle recently executed a sudden, violent phantom braking event on the highway with absolutely no prior warning lights or error codes on the dashboard. The peeling layers and air bubbles on the emblem physically refracted the radar signals, creating a false target that locked the brakes and nearly caused a severe rear-end collision.While I was driving alone during this specific incident, this car is my primary family vehicle used daily to transport my wife and my three young children. I am now genuinely terrified to drive my family in this vehicle and must manually turn off the CMBS system every time I start the car to protect them. American Honda Corporate (Case #16495852) has formally refused to address this active braking hazard,...

Premature paint delamination on a 2019 Honda Pilot. Notifying NHTSA to track factory paint adhesion defects correlating with active Attika v. American Honda Motor Co. litigation.

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...
