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.

I scheduled to have the wiper motor replaced and before the appointment date it rained and the motor failed completely, I was forced to drive home (25 miles) in the rain with NO wipers!!! I called Honda to get the part and they said that they do no stock it and I can have it tomorrow. I ordered the part and replaced it next day. I called Honda Customer Service to get them to pay for the part and they refused. I feel that a wiper motor failure at 72000 miles is PREMATURE and that is what I told Honda USA, I told them that I have a poor opinion of Honda quality and that I will NOT own another Honda and if asked, I will NOT recommend that anyone buy a Honda product. In over 35 years of owning cars I have NEVER had a wiper motor failure AT ALL!!! 72000 miles is VERY PREMATURE!!! DO NOT BUY HONDA PRODUCTS!!!
