PLEASE STAY AWAY FOR YOUR OWN GOOD

Our Family purchased our 2010 Honda Pilot in late 2009 thinking we were getting the best option out there as the car was new and pretty advanced for the time. Though design was always questionable we bought it to see what will happen. Within he first couple years we were naive enough to think it was a good car. It was perfect until 3 years after owning it we were in a rear end incident and it protected us but one of us had a fracture in the neck bone. I do believe this could've been avoided if the car had bigger rear headrests and more structural support. The car after repaired continued to have continuous issues. Some of them are not even resolved today (fan jamming in A/C. ) the car is simply unreliable and it is cheap. For our top of the line model it was $40,000 and for hat I do not want to see cheap plastic and seats with no support . I would've rather bought a 2 row SUV that would've been nicer. So please stay away from this car. Looks can be deceiving. I don't want you to look at it everyday when you need to go somewhere and just keep on thinking about the day you will get rid of it. I have had a horrible experience with Honda and Acura , I am done with them altogether. Thanks for listening.

I would never get this Pilot again. I have had several build quality issues from rattling to air gaps in window seal and having to get brakes fixed twice in 6 months, as well as re- sealing the sunroof. I don't expect that from Honda. The engine is mediocre at best, the navigation system is useless and outdated, the cargo area is not flat, the shifter is from the Odyssey mini- van, the wheels are too small with no option for bigger, no wood trim in a $38k vehicle, cylinder de-activation is clunky and noisy, plastics are cheap with many different types throughout the cabin, and it isn't the quietest suv out there. But it is roomy, wide and drives like a sedan. Stereo sounds good tho.

The Honda Pilot is boring

It's a reliable and useful SUV, but for the amount of money this car is, it should be a lot nicer. The interior is very boring with absolutely no trace of any luxury. Also, our navigation system is completely messed up and takes us on the most bizarre, out of the way routes.

Pulls to the right!

My mother's 2010 4wd pilot is great except it pulls to the right! It's been taken to the dealer 5 times and they've said there's nothing wrong with it, they all do that, they were made to do that, its' the crown in the road, it falls within specs so there's nothing they can do blah blah blah! Why on Earth do you want your car to pull either way? How will she know when it's pulling due to there being something wrong? Sure the pilot looks great but how is it safe for your car to pull to the right? The dealership has yet to do anything to help my mother and now they are not returning her calls.

2010 Pilot

Just bought my first Honda Pilot at the end of June and love it, so far. Coming from Sequoia I was worried about room as older Pilot's were not big enough. Rooms is very sufficient and acceleration will run circles around Sequoia. The vehicle has to be one of the most solid vehicles I have ever purchased, well built vehicle. I had to take the vehicle to the dealer as it was "pulling" to the right as indicated in a lot of 2009 reviews. Seems to have improved after service. Gas Mileage is averaging 16-18 city and 21-22 highway.
