"No Issue" Pilots - Honda Pilot

naparsei · 02-26-2004, 12:13 PM

It seems like the issue specific threads do polls to see if the particular problem they are facing is common - but of course that draws primarily responses from like-minded individuals. I would like to know what the "break down" is among the knowledgable Piloteers here - please vote! The bigger the sample the more significant it will be - and useful to both current and future Piloteers.

Moderators or others - I am relatively new here, so if I have missed a significant issue, please add (or make the suggestion) to the poll. Thanks.

I added starting problem

Thanks, Ramirami.

It'd be great to more responses. I am somewhat surprised at this point that most people are "issue free", but the biggest problem is MORE THAN ONE problem. From the posts I've read here, I doubt these people are just that much pickier. It sounds like there might be a "Friday" problem, where the build quality might just be lower for certain batches of Pilots. Obviously this is an over simplification b/c the "harmonic resonance" theory of road vibration means every Pilot probably has vibration to some extent...

Keep in mind the title of the thread is more likely to draw us "No Issue" folks to the thread. People with the starting problem would more likely read the "Starting issue threads" than this one, I would think.

9900 trouble free miles, just like the other two Hondas I have owned problem free and loving every moment. Once a month my wife and I drive to Dallas about 350 miles from Midland, Texas. So, we are able to give Herbie the Pilot an excellent road test. If Honda continues to improve the Pilot over the coming years this will be one fine vehicle.
