2019 Honda Pilot Engine

The air conditioning went out. The condenser to replace has been discontinued by almost every parts seller. Took the car to Honda and they are not sure what the problem is so they want to rebuild the entire air conditioning system.

This has been happening for a while now, probably the past yet, but its happening more frequently now. I didn't think much of it until my husband noticed it while we were driving and started asking me about it and saying that could mean I have a transmission issue and need to get it looked at before my warranty is up since the car is relatively new and has less than 40,000 miles. My warranty is up to 80,000 miles. The date listed below is when my husband mentioned it. When accelerating, at low RPMs, usually between 1 and 2 rpm, the car hesitates accelerating. it lasts about 1 to 5 seconds. I initially noticed it at low speeds, but now it's doing the same thing at higher speeds, but always when it's a low rpms. It was sparsely happening, but now it's happening more frequently. Sometimes the hesitation is kinda jerking you a few times, but other times, its a longer hesitation and your car kinda makes a sound like it all of a sudden just decided it was going to kick into gear and start going again. This is a safety issue because if I'm pulling into traffic, changing lanes, crossing a road and my car hesitates or I can speed up fast enough when I should be able to, it could cause an accident. I'm taking it to get looks at by Honda Cars of Katy on 8/25/2021. They should be able to reproduce it since it happens quite frequently. The vehicle has not been inspected by anyone yet for this issue. There are no warning lights or messages on either.

While stopped at a red light, the engine would completely shut off. I had to restart the car and it would take multiple attempts to turn it back on. The first time it happened, I thought it was a battery issue. But I had since changed the battery and the problem still occurs. It seems to happen when the idle mode is not turned off. This is dangerous as it could cause an accident to have your car suddenly stop working in the middle of traffic.

when auto engine idle is on after coming to a stop at a light or stop sign upon acceleration some times the car will stall and then an error message will come on the dash "Collision Mitigation Braking System error" this happens multiple times a week when driving i have taken to honda dealership and the blew me off saying they could not replicate the issue but i have come across many other people online with the same issue.

Engine knock occurs at low rpm’s while under load. Was informed by a Honda Dealership Service Advisor that this is a known issue with 2019+ Earth Dreams V6 engines, and they have had a number of owners report the problem. The Service Advisor also informed me that Honda told his dealership the issue is caused by a faulty main engine bearing however, to date, Honda has not taken any formal action. A main bearing failure can cause catastrophic engine failure which would increase the risk of a crash.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2019 HONDA PILOT. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING 10 MPH, THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED AND THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS UNDRIVABLE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO BE DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED. NEITHER THE MANUFACTURER NOR DEALER WERE NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN.

I PURCHASED A NEW 2019 HONDA PILOT EX-L IN DECEMBER, 2018. I WAS RECENTLY EXITING AN OFF RAMP FROM AN INTERSTATE AND WHEN I PRESSED THE ACCELERATOR TO MERGE INTO TRAFFIC THE VEHICLE HESITATED SIGNIFICANTLY AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT STARTED FLASHING. I THEN CONTINUED A FEW MILES WHICH I HAD REMAINING TO MY HOUSE AND THE VEHICLE WOULD ACCELERATE VERY POORLY AND THE ENGINE WOULD SHAKE UNDER ACCELERATION. THE MANUAL STATES THAT A FLASHING LIGHT IS AN ENGINE MISFIRE. I STARTED THE VEHICLE ON MONDAY MORNING TO TAKE IT TO THE LOCAL HONDA DEALER AND IT DROVE NORMALLY DOWN TO THE DEALER. AFTER CHECKING THE ENGINE COMPUTER THEY COULD FIND NO FAULT CODES FOR THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT FLASHING THE DAY BEFORE. THEY GAVE ME BACK THE VEHICLE AND SAID THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO AT THIS TIME. I FEEL THAT THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS PROBLEM AND IT APPEARS THAT A FEW OTHER COMPLAINTS HAVE BEEN FILED FOR THIS SAME ISSUE. HAVING A VEHICLE THAT LOSES A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF POWER CAN BE A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE AND I HIGHLY SUGGEST THAT HONDA LOOK INTO THIS MATTER CAREFULLY. THIS SHOULD NOT HAPPEN TO A BRAND NEW VEHICLE WITH 2,200 MILES OR ANY VEHICLE FOR THAT MATTER.

THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND PROVIDED CASE NUMBER: 09223186. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 100.
