2023 Honda Pilot Elite 4dr SUV AWD (3.5L 6cyl 10A)

10000 miles on 23 Elite. Quite! Smooth Drivetrain. Cannot hear engine running most of the time. Very Roomy and running 23 mpg, My only complaint spending this kind of cash wish Honda would have put spring loaded hood struts in.

Poor assembly design and fit and finish

After giving my 2019 Pilot EX-L to my daughter, I thought I’d “upgrade” to a new 2023 Pilot. To be honest, I didn’t go over it with a fine-toothed comb as I usually would on a new vehicle. It is a comfortable, nice ride, but the body work is abysmal —loose, Ill-fitting plastic trim on the doors and taillights, shabby seam sealing throughout, water and dirt seeping into the inside of the doors due to insufficient rubber underbody and doors trims. Truly disappointing to the point that I’m still shopping for a vehicle, which I’ll do as long as the hit on my trade isn’t outrageously bad. 2-26-25 update: Still driving the vehicle at 28,000. Still a smooth ride, relatively quiet, which is why I’ve kept it, but I did need new tires with less than 25,000 on the originals. My previous opinions on the fit and finish haven’t changed. I’m worried about potential rust due to sloppy seam-sealing and trim. I hope I’m wrong.

We had our brand new 2023 Pilot Elite for a week. We have compared all the other competitors on the market, such as Highlander, Palliside, Telluride, MDX, Acsent, Atlas. Finally we choose Pilot, and thanks to our decision. It's the best SUV ever!

2023 Pilot TrailSport Issue’s

We bought our 2023 Pilot Trailsport brand new in October of 2023. It currently has 4,300 miles. It has had a computer issue since day one. The dash randomly lights up like a Christmas tree with every warning light and error message. There are times when we use the remote start the doors will not open with the remote we have to use the key to unlock the doors manually. The automatic high beams work sometimes and sometimes they don’t. The tailgate is power and it wont open half of the time. If we shut the car off and start it again sometimes that will fix the issue and allow the tailgate to open. We had it in the local Honda dealership and they told us the issue was resolved but it was back to square one the following day. They now have parts ordered that are on back order and have been for over a month. We had a 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee before this that had electrical issues that’s why we got rid of it. Now we are back to square one with this pilot. We bought a Honda for their dependability and this may be a lemon but I would not recommend the new body style Pilot.
2023 Pilot - Great SUV from a Dependable Brand

Love the updated exterior and interior styling. I have owned the Pilot for seven months and enjoy driving it every day. Performance is terrific and interior is quiet, comfortable and well laid out in simplicity and function; previous Honda vehicles I owned had confusing interior controls. Lots of room for passengers and all their stuff. Love this simpler alloy wheels that look great but are easy to clean. A lot of simple features like this show Honda has done their homework in the overall design. I have previously owned five Honda Vehicles that all exceeded 200K miles with none or limited repairs which is a main reason I chose the Pilot over other brands. Having a dependable vehicle for the long term is more important than some extra or fancier amenities.
