Default Oil type

I just had my 2004 Pilot serviced at a local oil change chain and they put 5W30 in it instead of 5W20. We are leaving for vacation and plan on driving a least 1600 within the next 7 days. Should I take it back and have them put 5W20 is will it be OK?

Thanks,
RGW

It's fine, Honda put 5w20 in there for better gas mileage. 5w30 won't kill your engine. Go ahead and enjoy your trip!
