NHTSA — Structure: Body: Roof And Pillars Problems

CarComplaints.com Seal Of This Might Hurt

CarComplaints.com Notes: We all want our SUVs to be able to stop on a dime, just not randomly and without warning. But that's what was happening to 2005 Pilot owners: their vehicles were slamming on the brakes even when they didn't. A government investigation of this problem led to a recall in March of 2013.

Another issue that keeps popping up is transmission fluid mixing with coolant in the radiator which is causing transmission failure, a costly repair to say the least.

The dvd system is making a rattling noise. The roof makes occasional loud rattling noise, especially when driving on a little bumpy road. It sounds like two metallic surfaces are banging into each other. I have taken the vehicle to the dealership multiple times for repair but the problem is still there.
