Just returned back home from a quick drive and the vehicle was sitting in my driveway. After about 20 min I walked by the car and noticed the entire back window in multiple pieces. There was no one that walked by or drove by. Pieces of glass were noted to be 10 feet behind the vehicle on the driveway. There was no one in the vehicle at the time and nothing in the trunk area that was potentially pressing on the glass. Vehicle was towed to the dealership where it was collision wrapped until the glass could be replaced.
I purchased a 2024 Honda Pilot on [XXX]. In March, between the 4th & 22nd (approx 1800 mi) I thought I saw a crack but as my vehicle had been parked in the parking structure where I live adjacent the ports of LB & LA (prone to excessive dust) & recent rain/moisture causing the dust to form into lines I figured to wait until washing before confirming. On 3/22 I confirmed a crack - no point of impact. As I had planned a vacation to Mexico I opted to photograph the crack AND the vehicle in Mexico capturing date and location stamp. I returned on 4/16. On 4/29 I took my vehicle to El Monte Honda. I let the service advisor know about the crack & upon inspection he found a 2nd crack - no point of impact. The advisor said they were scratches on the inside - 2 piece laminated. I pushed back because the visible thickness of the crack I discovered did not match the hairline feel. He convinced me that replacing the windshield could lead to other issues such as leakage - a known problem on the current generation so I asked him to note the damage - he noted a scratch. I took the vehicle but ultimately decided it wasn't fair as both were in drivers line of sight. Upon return he said the system used to communicate between the dealership and manufacturer was down and would have to come back. I called 2 months later - no return call. 9/13/24 I decide to go to local dealer (Long Beach Honda). The service advisor inspected and said he would call Honda but did not. Driving away I noted a smudge where the advisor located a crack - a 3rd crack, no point of impact. Called Honda & they said no record of me going to the dealer. Closed case. On 10/1 I returned to LB Honda with a record from 4/29 and images. He said possible glass delamination but only because a Boeing engineer reenforced stress cracks. He did not return calls nor advise Honda. Called Honda. They refuse to do anything without a diagnosis and service advisors are running away in what appears a deliberate effort. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INF
on 3/9/24 while traveling west on I10 the panoramic rooftop window shattered. Had the canvas from the sunroof been rolled back the shattered glass from the window would have come down on my husband and myself while driving 75 miles per hour. Because the glass shattered it had to be taken back to the dealer for repair. Which is still there 6/17/24. The glass was embedded in the track for the skylight. Dealer is aware of issue.
The vehicle was purchased brand new on Feb 1st 2024. While driving on the highway on Feb 5th 2024, with only 105 miles on the odometer, and no prior warning messages/lights, many warning messages were suddenly displayed on the dashboard, repeating one after the other, instructing that various safety features were disabled, displaying: "Parking brake not available", "Brake system problem", "Brake performance may be reduced", "Brake hold system problem", "Anti-lock brake system problem", "Vehicle stability assist system problem", "Reduced traction and handling", "Electric power steering system problem. Steering assist reduced", "Hill start assist problem. Vehicle may roll upon brake release", "Trailer stability assist system problem", "Hill descent control system problem", "Adaptive cruise control system problem", "Lane keeping assist system problem", "Collision mitigation braking system problem", "Road departure mitigation system problem", "Low speed braking system control problem", "Auto high beam problem", "Parking sensor problem". In addition, after coming to a full stop and shifting to Park, (or, turning off the car) the tailgate would not open regardless of how we tried (dash button, remote key, tailgate handle, foot swing). Also, the car would not turn off after pressing the On/Off button. The button would need to be pressed repeatedly to turn off the vehicle. All of these safety systems and functions were disabled at the same time without prior warning while driving at highway speeds. The Honda dealer confirmed the problem, inspected the vehicle, and concluded a faulty ABS control module is to blame. We know of one other 2024 Honda Pilot owner in our neighborhood who experienced the same issue, which makes it likely that this is a common problem. Honda should have designed redundancies to prevent sudden simultaneous failure of so many safety systems. Honda should recall all affected vehicles to replace faulty ABS control modules before people are hurt.

I was driving down the road and my sunroof exploded. It was random and there was no debris around. I had my cover closed so no glass fell into the car. Looking at the sunroof it appears as if it exploded up.
