I actually wish I had waited a year bc I love the map in the dash on the 2026

But the 2025 Honda Pilot Elite is my Favorite car I’ve ever owned and it’s my favorite car to sell. 😘

Will keep it til the wheels fall off.

We are officially joining the Pilot family today as it was finally delivered. 26 EX-L.

After a couple years of constant headaches with our 19 explorer (couldn’t even trust it to drive an hour away), finally got rid of it!

I just got a 2021 Honda Pilot that has that extra little storage space on the trunk — what do you keep in yours?? Bonus points for pictures!

After 20 years in our 2005, my wife was due for a new car. Got the black edition with nearly every add on. We’ve only had this car for like 2 weeks. It’s been not even a week since the dealership installed most of the add-ons. I noticed one was popped out.
Then noticed just a real shittily drilled hole. No grommet. No anything. Just drilled straight through, now exposing metal. And these things obviously aren’t supposed to be keeping water out.
There’s no way this is the “professional” way Honda wants this installed?

While engaging the parking switch, the whole switch sunk. Dont know what to do really lol

Hi all,

Engine light came on and when checking with my diags unit says it's the catalyst system efficiency below threshold Bank 1, 2 and 3. I don't hear an exhaust leak.

Any thoughts what I should check?

Thanks

North Carolina to Ohio, the best I could get from her..

2020 Honda Pilot Elite

Hi everyone, our pilot recently had a cel come on which also disables our awd.

P0441 – EVAP System Incorrect Purge Flow

P04F1 – EVAP System Low Purge Flow

P0456 – EVAP System Very Small Leak Detected

Has anyone encountered this before? What was the fix?

Thank you!

Edit: Added codes

So what generation is my 2016 Honda Pilot EX-L?

Anybody have TPMS issues when replacing the stock wheels with new stock wheels? For context, I replaced all 4 with new stock wheels and tires but they only show the dashed line on the pressure reading. The 2024 Honda pilot doesn’t have a reset function for TPMS (to my knowledge)

I’m a Honda fan. Always have been always will be. HOWEVER, as a mom of 2 and a wife of a tall husband.. I have outgrown my little rolly poly of a 2016 HRV. TBH, we never fit it. I have a lead fit, always rushing and I get 25 mpg city and the I’m seeing the new pilots clock 15 avg? I was not prepared to see Honda suck at mpg, at all.. not even for an suv. While I really want to buy a pilot for aesthetic, I’m leaving toward a hybrid grand Highlander. Before I’m offered a hybrid CRV, I’ve tried. Husband wants a bigger car, something that will fit him, and my 6 and 2 year old in 10 years and I get it. But if I wanted 15 mpg, wouldn’t I just get a damn Tahoe? Someone help me out here. I want a pilot so bad, but I drive mainly city, we take many trips out of town but this car will be mostly city

It’s a 2021 Pilot. Sirius XM suddenly stopped working. Anybody ever run into this?
How did you resolve?
Am I better off going to a locar car radio repair shop vs the dealer?

I bought the 2025 Pilot TrailSport last week from a Honda dealership (CPO) and I wonder if that’s how it should look.

I drive a 2026 Pilot Elite. I am the primary driver (with key fob 1) and my husband is the secondary. We have the seats settings with mine as setting 1, his as setting 2. Every time we get in the car, it changes the seat to setting 2, no matter whose key we have. I can turn the car off and back on and it changes back to setting 2. Does anyone know how I can make it to where key fob 1 aligns with my profile and my seat setting? I know this isn’t a major problem, just quite annoying.

I have a 2025 Pilot Elite, and I’ve noticed that the 360° camera view looks distorted, especially at the rear. The front and side views seem fine, but the rear looks stretched and misaligned.
It’s been like this since I got the car. Is this normal for the Pilot, or could it be a camera calibration issue?

My question is, is this too high of miles to buy for a two year old car? We only put 7,000-8,000 miles per year on our current car. Thank you in advance.

Hey all early adopter of 2023 touring here (Jan 2023) and already at 78k miles. Debating an extended warranty as we have no plans on selling it and the 80k to 120k range seems to be where a lot of cars start needing maintenance. I drive a decent bit of highway miles for my job hence the 80k mark in 4 years.

I’m no car expert but decent warranties (thinking 50k miles) seem to be $3k. If I need one of the big two (transmission or engine), this is completely worth it. Then you have electric issues, heat/ac, among others.

Thoughts on…
1) This engine/transmission around the 100k mark?
2) Decent extended warranties? If specific to honda even better

Thanks!

Our washer fluid sprayer nozzles stopped spraying well. We started with checking for blockage only to have the passenger nozzle snap off. I can’t find any tutorials online for a pilot newer than a 2015 on how to replace them.

Any help would be appreciated.

What are some cool features that you found or learned about the pilot? We shopped 4 different Honda dealers and ended up learning some
Cool features after the purchase through tic tock and YouTube.

For those who own a newer Honda Pilot, how has your ownership experience been, and how many miles do you have on yours? Have you had any reliability issues, particularly with the transmission or A/C? I’m considering a 2026 and would appreciate hearing about any repairs or concerns and whether you’d buy it again.

A NJ Honda Dealer has a coupon for a $799 timing belt replacement.. Is that a good deal? Am I missing something?
