I have read all the problems that everyone has posted on this site. Does anyone have any good things to say about the Pilot? I'm having second thoughts about the purchase.

I don't consider my issues to be problems that would make me sorry I bought the car. They are really minor issues when compared to the whole package. I am very happy with the Pilot and think it is much better than most cars out there that cost a whole lot more. I would recommend a Pilot to anyone and I have owned plenty of cars in my time.

We've had our EX for over a month now and couldn't be happier. Granted there have been some comments about minor annoyances, but the overall package and value far surpass everything out there. You want to read about some troubles, go spend some time in the GM Triplets board. Now there's reason to second guess your purchase of one of those.

ref: Problems starting car by stsai001

I did experienced a few times of failed start on the first crank and the second crank also take one or two seonds longer than normal. Also, I have experienced the smell of gas but it was while I am driving. It happened a few times in particular when I hit a bump or sharp turn. I also have a hum sound from the back when I do a sudden start or stop but can't repeat the issue every time. The dealer checked the noise and can't find any thing. I really find hard to communicate with dealers since they don't normally believe what you told them. My car has 3500 now. I hope honda or dealer can help me out.

My Pilot has 800 miles on it and failed to start on first try on 3 or 4 occassions. I've read the postings of same problem before in our forum. Has any one got the problem solved?. It's really frustrating these kind of things happening with honda.

My Pilot has around 3700 miles on it and I did have some startup troubles a few times. A week ago, it took 4 tries! Dealer asked me whether I left the lights on! (even after I mentioned these discussions).

It looks like many people have this start up problem and It's been there for quiet some time. We have to be real aggressive with Honda to fix this problem. It looks like they haven't done any thing about this problem despite >8 complaints to Honda corp. we pay high prices to these foreign cars to be free from this kind of hassles.
I have 1997 Geo Prizm with 85000 miles on it and I never had to try more than once to start it even in harsh winters.

Maybe if we all band together and start a class action law suit against Honda for this frequently experienced problem by many of their customers we could either all have the problem fixed or be given some kind of restitution for this problem.
