Joy you are not the only one with the annoying sound coming from your 2012 pilot. ours began from the day we bought it. brought it to dealership, said that's normal. just had someone take a look they said it has to do with the power steering and ac fan. Power steering needs to be replaced. Nightmare. let me know if it turns out to be a lemon.

problem #1

Pilot EX V6

  • Automatic transmission
  • 3,000 miles

I have taken my vehicle in more than four times for this problem. They replaced the power steering twice. I just took it back by request of the dealership yesterday. They called me today and said they didn't do anything this time, that Honda reps told them there is nothing else they are going to do at THIS time. Loud humming noise is worse than ever! I am currently going through the motions of filing for the LEMON LAW in Florida.
