Love My Honda's

We bought a Civic Hatch and a Pilot and love them both. We gave our 2013 Honda Civic to our daughter and traded in our leased 2015 Toyota Highlander. Hands down the Pilot blows the Highlander away. It's so smooth and a dream to drive. We have always purchased our Honda's from Lindsay Honda. Their customer service is hands down the best. They make sure you are totally satisfied throughout the life of the car. Mike was great to work with. We took many hours trying to make our decision regarding which vehiclies were right for us. He is very knowledgable and answered all our questions. He also took time with us after the vehicles were purchased to go over all the features and connect our phones. We are 100% satisfied with our experience and would highly recommend buying a Honda from Mike at Lindsay Honda.

Loved Honda’s til we bought a 2018 Pilot touring AWD. Worst transmission ever. 3 second delay.Not even safe! Sensing that will get you into an accident. Lane sensing and braking doesn’t work. Wheel shakes and brakes by it self. Dealer won’t fix. Said it is all normal! We hated this 45,000 dollar piece of junk! Shame on Honda! We traded it off the first year and got a Jeep Grand Cherokee! The Jeep drives 100 times better! Beware of the New Pilot!!!

Honda that turns me off to all Hondas???

Let me start by saying, I have loved every Honda I have ever owned. I actually am disappointed in this vehicle. I don't feel like it handles as well as my other cars (Accord EX-L, Pilot, Acura integra). Mileage is not the best. Difficult for kids to get in and out of the car (3 kids 8 & under) - get the running boards with littles. Kids constantly complaining it's too hot or too cold back there - cannot seem to get temperature right. Windows are all malfunctioning - they are all closed but when i return to my car they are slightly open already OR when i go to open the car door, the windows slip as if the suction from the doors being closed has caused some massive force and it slips open. This car may be what turns me off to Hondas now forever.

This is my 5 Honda vehicle. First pilot. I've owned it 16 mo. The windshield breaks if you breathe on it. I just broke it for the 3rd time. Honda dealer says oh no this isn't happening. I've started a claim with Honda. Goggle it. Theres a fb forum. It's a big issue! All I'm asking is for them to acknowledge & fix this issue. I'm going to get rid of it. Update.. traded it. 4 windshields
