After striking a deer with the 2005 pilot my wife decided on another a 2011. Its bigger and definitely more comfortable, excellent ride even when your in the car for more than 8 hours, quiet inside climate control keeps the inside cool. Fuel mileage isn't bad for the size of the vehicle. Entertainment system works well for all the rear passengers.

Best vehicle I've owned! I've had my Pilot for 9yrs now and still purposeful. I've put a lot of miles on my Pilot from all the road trips and family vacations and still going strong. Great room, cold a/c, entertainment pkg is a life saver. Never any major mechanical issues just normal updates. Would definitely recommend to a family.

Honda Pilot 2011 EX-L with RES FWD

I felt regret to get this Pilot. So noisy and gas mileage is not as good as the sticker said. Just got the car for 2 days and found out the defect. The wheel couldn't keep straight, I have to keep it to the right like ~ 15-20 degree to keep my car run straight. Brought to dealer they said that was normal. No way! My wife has the old 2002 Toyota 4Runner and didn't have something like this. I hate my Pilot now.

Pilot engine is up roaring...

After driving my brand new Honda Pilot 2011 EX-L with DVD, I felt like the engine is up roaring when driving with speed < 60 mph. if I drive more than 60 mph then engine is kind of smoother. I haven't noticed the noisy engine after driving ~ 3000 miles on it. Will bring back to dealer to check if there is any problem with the engine. And I hate to go back to the dealer since all I heard "work as expected" but it does NOT.

The Honda pilot 2011 when applying the brakes vibrates heavy. In was driving on freeway when my battery light came on .Drive a few mile hit a bump all other warranting light came.on . I exist the freeway the pilot started slowing down,then every thing shut off. I was told by Honda alternator is gone and some problem with the starter .no one at Honda can not tell me what's really wrong my battery is dead only had battery 4 months. The problem drain the power. My car has been in the shop for 3 day . I like this pilot other then the vibrating while applying brakes. I have never had any problem . I know alternator, and other wear and tare will happen. BUT I NEED MY CAR. I HAVE 2 ACCORD S,ONE PRELUDE, ELEMENT. NEVER HAD THESE PROBLEMS.
