I have had my 2012 Honda Pilot for over two months now. The first day I drove it from the lot (I test drove a different car and picked mine for color-so never drove mine) There was a loud humming noise when the AC compressor kicked on. The dealership replaced the Power steering twice (at 200 miles and 600 miles) Needless to say, the humming noise is there louder than ever. I filed a vehicle defect notification with Honda. I received a letter saying they are going to attempt to correct the problem for the third time. He said it should lower the noise but not eliminate it. I am so upset. I feel like I live at my dealership/service dept. I wish I never bought this 2012 Pilot

Love this car great for kids and family trips. Love the comfort and just enjoy having this SUV. Love the back up camera so easy to use. Very last row of seats short on leg room.

I bought the 2012 Pilot because of its reputation for being both dependable and reliable. How wrong I was. The car has 500 miles on it and wont start correctly. Honda aware of problem and offer no solution. Customer service is horrible. I've been told to keep turning the key until the engine starts. "It's safe to drive." No one from the company will put any of this in writing. Buyer beware !!

The Pilot has everything a family of 6 needs and stuck around from birth through high school! The spaciousness, safety, and low cost maintenance is exactly what a family is looking for. Love HONDA!

Hmm. Let me think what problems are wrong. ENGINE IS VERY LOUD! HAS NO GETUP! SHUTTERS WHEN ACCELERATING! PARTS IN THE INSIDE ARE FALLING APART! I have taken care of the pilot but it is built cheap! It is reliable though but not quiet like a ford.
