CarComplaints.com Notes: Previously we had awarded the 2009 Pilot "Seal of Pretty Good", but have since removed that honor due to all the continuing complaints about excessive oil consumption.
This Honda Pilot oil consumption defect was subject to a class action lawsuit in 2013. However not all 2009 Honda Pilots were covered by the settlement & by now the warranty extension has expired. The oil consumption complaints keep coming in.
For the price that I paid for this vehicle, I believe that the paint job on this Honda Pilot should not be in the shape that it is in at this Mileage point. I believe that there had to be a defect in the painting process. I am very disappointed in Honda for the paint peeling off at this point. The vehicle only has (071782) miles. I purchased this vehicle for traveling after my retirement from the Military and I can't travel with it looking like it looks. The vehicle has been very good to me, Individuals and dealership want to buy it back from me but I am keeping it. Honda is so good that I purchased my daughter a 2005 Honda Element EX SUV 4X4 and bought my son A 2017 Honda Civic Si.
This is how impressed with the Honda Vehicles. Please do the right thing for me being a Honda owner of three of your vehicles?
Honda recognizes that they have paint issues but refuse to correct this problem with customers. Quality Control has become a problem as of late for Honda, and they certainly are losing their superb reputation.
