Critical Review

"Engine Probelm in HONDA Pilot 2012"

This is first summer for this car and I notice when AC in on and car is not moving there is some kind of moaning very loud noise coming from the engine. I took my car to the dealer from where I purchased this vehicle. I was informed that Honda Motors is aware about this issue in 2012 Pilot. I am very surprise and upset that despite Honda Motor is aware about this issue till the date Honda did not solve this problem. Please make a note that the noise is very loud when AC is on and car is not moving. This noise is very annoying. DO NOT BUY HONDA PILOT 2012 UNTIL THEY SOLVE THIS PROBLEM.

Honda Pilot Touring

Honda Pilot is one of the best cars. We have had 3 and they run incredible. Reliable, easy to work on (if need be) Roomy and hauls almost as much as a truck

The headlights and white bulbs are new. 4 new tires were put on a year ago and one got a flat 2 days ago and I put on a new one. The oil and filter were changed.

What a champ
Pros

Reliable, comfortable, and functional.

Cons

MPG is just so so, normal for this class of SUV.

We bought this car on Mother's Day 2012. Over the last 14 years, besides regular maintenance and a couple of minor warranty repairs in the early years, we have not encountered any issues. We couldn't be more pleased with the value that we're getting out of this well-built SUV, and we plan to keep it for many more years!

Excellent!! Loyal Honda fan

You can’t go wrong buying a Honda, any model. I’ve had my pilot for ten years. I will be driving it as long as I can. Although, I’m not a fan of the newest style of the pilot.
