Hello,
I started to have audio issues with my 2016 pilot recently. After about 30min of driving, static starts and then completely overtakes the sound, and then kills the sound completely. This is on all Audio sources (except the navigation). So far I have replaced the amplifier, and the subwoofer. I also disconnected the 2 rear speakers by the tailgate as that is where the static sound starts, and the middle speaker in the front. All of these things have had no impact on the sound/issue.
Looking to see if anyone else has had the same issue, or any other thoughts. I don't want to spend a few hundred on a new head unit (main receiver / touch screen) to find out someone had the same issue and there was a simple fix.
Thank you,

You should check if this TSB applies to your model year: Honda Pilot 2020 No Audio Connection

Have you found the issue? My 2016 Touring AWD also started doing this. I have the platinum extended warranty and hope the fix is covered….

Just wanted to update, they replaced my entire nav/radio system under warranty!
