CarComplaints.com Notes: The 2012-2013 Honda Pilot have a small complaint trend of owners reporting the engine hesitates sometimes when accelerating.
While it's not a widespread trend with the Pilot, it's a little concerning because of the possibly safety ramifications. While it's certainly something to keep in mind, most Pilot owners are not experiencing this problem.

- VCM Tuner - It seems that the problem (check engine-misfire code) is due to the ECM technology that Cadillac had in the 80's is the problem. I haven't tried this product on my 2013 Pilot yet, but I think I will.

Wife in Hospital serious illness. When would drive to see her Engine light kept coming on. Had no recall notice ever. Had to pay a private mechanic Honda Certified $1800.00 to fix this problem. Had to rent car. Terrible situation. Wish we had received the recall notification. Check Engine light has come and gone since we bought the 2013 brand new. Took in and it was only reset. No engine work or anything else at local Honda Dealer.
Looking at hiring an attorney for Lemon Law and new vehicle replacement by Honda. Have always bought Honda's Accord's, Pilots and no problem or with the seat belt, air bag issue did receive a notification and dealer replaced and fixed it. Lemon Law may be too late. This is not right for not to receive this notification by Honda.
