Honda dealers don't yet have the tires for this vehicle in stock! Our touring has been running on the "doughnut" spare for a week now. The dealer ordered the tire and told us it would be here in a week. They just called and told us that it will be another week due to "backordered" or some foolishness. This will make 2 weeks my wife has had to ride on this cheap spare...not really comfortable with that. They choose a tire that NO ONE carries, dealers or locally. Seriously no one can get tires for this vehicle without ordering. Our dealer Moss Motors has been less than helpful, not even bothering to return a call as promised. Come on Honda! Regretting our new vehicle choice at the moment.

***Now it's been a year - Edmunds asked me to update this see below *** Wanted to wait a month before posting a review; I always rely on Edmunds info for car purchases. I have been very pleased. My previous vehicle was a 2011 Sequoia LTD. From an interior perspective, there is not that much less room than the Sequoia, but is so much easier to handle and drive. I have not experienced any problems with acceleration, braking, noises, etc. I did place an 8" screen protector over the navigation and it has helped tremendously on fingerprints. I love the blue LED lighting at night throughout the interior. I find the navigation and Bluetooth features easy to use - I have mainly used the screen and not the voice recognition. In deciding on the Pilot I also seriously considered the Infinity QX60 and the Toyota Highlander. The Highlander was eliminated because I really wanted a bench 2nd row and with that criteria you have to get a basic Highlander without a lot of the "nice" features. The QX60 you could get similar features to the Touring Pilot Model, but the price shot way up and often some of the safety features were "packaged" with other features I didn't want. Another feature I really like on the Pilot is the wide console between the two seats which is "friendly" to hold a purse or papers. It's flat the QX60 was narrow and curved. I routinely have a teenager in the front seat so that is important to me. Lots of storage compartments in the back is another big plus. The only two things I've noticed after driving several hundred miles (things you don't notice when you test drive) the clock is part of the navigation screen. The kids love it - they can clearly see it from the backseat, however you do not see the time until the "warning" messages go away when you start the car. For someone that checks the time the minute they start the car, this is taking some getting used to - again minor - but what I noticed. Also the Auto Engine Stop takes some getting used to when driving in traffic. You can turn it off at any time, but it appears that you have to turn it off every time you start the car. It's not like the "econ" mode that stays on or off indefinitely independent of turning the car on and off. But it's an easy button to reach. I really like the "push button" gear shifts - a lot more than I thought I would - so fast and convenient. One tip on extended warranty - if you choose to do one - I did Honda Care - the dealership started out hundreds more than you can purchase one on-line for. Honda Care is Honda Care - doesn't matter which dealership it is purchased from. If that is something you are interested in, get a price quote from the internet before signing the papers at the dealership. Make them match or beat the price you can get on-line... we saved over $800 buying the warranty this way. UPDATE ONE YEAR LATER Still no complaints... still love it; a pleasure to drive. Have not had not take it back to the dealer for any issues. Just oil change/tire rotation. Gas mileage has been good for all city driving (22 to 24 mpg)...comfy and serves it's purpose as family SUV and hauler of many things. We even had company this summer and 8 of us (all adult size - 5 of us taller than 6 ft) rode in it comfortably for a 30 minute drive to go to a restaurant together. Amazing how much leg room is available in 3rd row.

I traded in my 2010 Toyota Sienna last October. The first thing the 2016 Pilot impressed me is its fuel economy. It is much better than my Toyota van. In the Minnesota winter, I could get average of 20 mpg for mixed local and freeway drivings. The new Pilot is also very quiet, much lower road noise compared to the minivan I had. The ride is so smooth and stable. On a smooth road, you just can't feel the speed you are driving. With the AWD, it handles so well on snow. The car doesn't look big from outside, but sitting inside you feel it's quite roomy. I had 8 adult rides several times and never heard anyone complained. Before I bought the Pilot, I read much about the problems with the same 9-speed transmission on Jeep. But I never had any issue with my transmission. It always shifts smoothly up and down, and reacts swiftly. I guess Honda must have a better software control. The lane keeping technology works very well even with poor road marks, at night, and in rain conditions. I really enjoy driving the 2016 Pilot.

The cruise control with the auto braking sucks. When utilizing the cruise control on the freeway and in some traffic it starts applying the brakes when the other vehicle is 100 yards away. Then after it slows (needlessly) it speeds up quickly. It makes it useless to drive in most normal traffic situations. Maybe crossing the great state of Texas it could be useful but in any area that experiences traffic it is too much trouble. Also, when you go around a curve and another car is passing you (in their lane) the Honda will slam on the brakes as if it is in my lane. I really believe it is "too" sensitive for normal driving. I still do not like the auto shut off mode and the paddle shifters are totally useless (read wasted $$). The Honda has not had any issues and the comfort and ride are awesome. The transmission is also great. I love taking off and feeling the shifting, so smooth. Overall I would rate the Honda as Excellent with a few quirks that can be improved.
