I was hearing clunking in the back and brought it into the shop to get it checked out. I was told the rear subframe broke from being rusted/rotted out. I looked my car up to see if there were any recalls for it and found that there were recalls/buy backs for the same thing for 2003-2008 Honda pilots, 2007-2011 CR-V's and Ridgeline's in cold weather states, but not for my year of pilot even though it is the same issue wrong with the subframe. We tried contacting Honda, but after going back and forth with voice messages they told us there was nothing they can do because our year didn't have the recall. The pictures I uploaded are stills from videos taken. The videos can't be uploaded though this.

Rear view mirror is hazy. This is a problem with most Honda Pilots 2011. The problem is most likely with adhesion or the chemicals tat make up the camera screen and electronics inside the mirror. It is too dangerous to drive with a hazy rear view mirror. Also, headlights get hazy on the Honda Pilot 2011. I think problem is adhesion. In other words, Honda is either did not apply adhesion properly on their lights and mirrors or they used poor material. Please issue a recall and fix these issues.

Roof and hood of SUV PAINT PEELILNG badly. I notice many Honda Pilots with the same defect. I get my Pilot serviced at the dealer and NEVER have they offered to repaint/repair or offer suggestions. Obviously this is a Vehicle Defect from the factory. The rest of the body is in great shape.

BOUGHT 2011 PILOT IN MAY 2010, BRAND NEW. THE BROCHURE STATED THE VEHICLE HAS LEATHER INTERIOR TRIM. TO MY DISMAY TWO YEARS LATER, THE CENTER SEAT DEVELOPED A CRACK AND WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER, AND WAS TOLD THE SEAT WAS VINYL. NOT LEATHER! THE HAND REST ON ALL DOORS AND CENTER CONSOLE ARE ALL TORN AND STRETCHED TO REVEAL THE TRIM WAS THIN STRIPS OF SOME SORT OF RUBBER. NOW ALL SEATS ARE ALSO CRACKED AND TORN AFTER THE VINYL HARDENED. I FEEL AS IF I WAS FLEECED BY HONDA. HAD I KNOWN THE INTERIOR WAS RUBBER AND VINYL I WOULD HAVE STUCK WITH THE FABRIC SEATS. ADDITIONALLY THE VEHICLE KEPT SHUTTING DOWN ONLY TO FIND OUT THE THROTTLE BODY WAS DEFECTIVE. THE VEHICLE 'EATS' BRAKE PADS AND THE EMERGENCY DOES NOT WORK PROPERLY. I LEARNT THE HARD WAY FEW MONTHS AFTER PURCHASING MY VEHICLE. I PARKED IT IN MY DRIVEWAY WHICH HAS A VERY SLIGHT INCLINE, PLACED IT IN NEUTRAL AND APPLIED THE BRAKES AND STEPPED OUT, ONLY TO HEAR HORNS BLOWING. ON CHECKING, THE VEHICLE HAD ROLLED INTO THE STREET. TO THIS DAY THE DEALER CANNOT FIGURE WHY THE EMERGENCY BRAKE DOES NOT WORK IF THE VEHICLE IS ON AN INCLINE WITH THE BACK TOWARDS THE BOTTOM OF THE INCLINE..

MY 2011 PILOT WAS PURCHASED NEW IN AUG 2011, HAS LESS THAN 68000 MILES AND I LIVE IN SOUTHERN CA, YET: MY BATTERY DIED AND HAD TO BE REPLACED APR 2018 (CAR WAS PARKED < 1HR AND WOULD NOT START, BUT STARTED FINE THE HOUR BEFORE). MY ENGINE CHECK TRANSMISSION SYSTEM LIGHT/WARNING CAME ON AND WE HAD TO ADD A QUART OF OIL ON JULY 18, 2019, EVEN THOUGH I HAD AN OIL CHANGE DONE IN MAY 2019 LESS THAN 500 MILES BEFORE. ON 7/24/19, MY FRONT WINDSHIELD WIPERS STOPPED AND TODAY I HAD TO HAVE THE MOTOR REPLACED NOT JUST A FUSE. I'M CONCERNED WHY A HONDA < 9 YRS OLD IS HAVING THESE ISSUES - BURNING OIL & MOTORS DYING. IS MY CAR A LEMON? CAN YOU PLEASE HELP TO ALLOW ME TO HAVE A DEALERSHIP SERVICE DO A FULL INSPECTION/FIX ON THE OIL ISSUE AT NO COST AND POSSIBLY A REIMBURSEMENT ON THE COST OF THE NEW WINDSHIELD WIPER MOTOR (PART & LABOR APPROX. $411 - I CAN PROVIDE A COPY OF THE INVOICE LATER AS THE WORK IS BEING DONE TODAY)? THANK YOU FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION. I WOULD APPRECIATE ANY ASSISTANCE IN ENSURING THAT MY CAR DOES NOT PROGRESS AS A LEMON. I HAVE BEEN A DEDICATED HONDA OWNER SINCE 1981 AND THIS IS THE FIRST ONE I'VE OWNED THAT HAS PROBLEMS. THANK YOU.
