CarComplaints.com Notes: Previously we had awarded the 2010 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 2010 Honda Pilots were covered by the settlement & by now the warranty extension has expired. The oil consumption complaints keep coming in.
Third occurrence in about a year: While city driving engine light comes on and experience significant loss of power and car decelerates to abut 20mph despite pressing gas pedal to the floor. Feels like car is stuck in one speed and unable to accelerate. Issue is throttle body and it is replaced by dealer. Again, this is not the first time and the car just hit 30k miles. I suspect this is a harbinger for more to come...arghhh
