#2 of 7 2005 Honda Pilot brake problems by scarlett6 Sep 11, 2009 (11:02 pm)
Is anyone else experiencing problems with braking and their Pilots? My daughter's 2005 Pilot has started sudden and violent braking on its own, a very unnerving and dangerous experience.   I have seen this problem reported on some other complaint sites, but Honda denies there is any problem.   Thanks, Cathie Replies to this message: emilyn (Nov 03, 2009 5:46 pm) bigdadi118 (Nov 04, 2009 7:11 pm) bigdadi118 (Nov 10, 2009 9:01 pm) jp1123 (Nov 06, 2009 8:05 am) dules (Nov 15, 2009 7:25 am)

My husband didn't think there was anything wrong until recently he was driving and it happened to him as well. Have you found any further information regarding this braking problem. If I find anything out I will be in contact. Emily Replies to this message: bigdadi118 (Nov 04, 2009 7:11 pm) bigdadi118 (Nov 10, 2009 9:01 pm) jp1123 (Nov 06, 2009 8:05 am)

It's almost as if I were slamming on the brakes or the car is braking on its own. Have you received any good insight on this?   Jeff

I would never have bought if I had found these problems before - good grief. Hoping we don't have this problem but wondering exactly what to tell the dealer to look for if we do.   Good luck to all, Mary
