| 68000 mi | Auto start/stop occasionally cuts the engine when the brake is released, and at some times will not engage the transmission w/o a restart. Dealer could not find this in the trouble codes, so no action was taken. Did not charge us. |

| 24000 mi | Over the course of 5 visits to the dealership, the service techs searched for the source of an oil leak. After re-sealing the oil pan and re-sealing the oil pump, the leak was found to be at the side main bolts. The bolts were removed, cleaned, and the threads were coated with Honda Bond before re-installing. 1K miles later and no leak has been detected. |
2016 Honda Pilot 4dr SUV
280-horsepower 3.5L V6 6-speed automatic AWD
| 62000 mi | Misfire CEL. Fuel injectors replaced under TSB/Extended warranty. Likely cause is carbon buildup due to Direct Injection engine design. Common issue on 3rd Gen Honda Pilots. |
| 75000 mi | Leaking valve cover gasket, rear bank. Gasket replaced. |
| 19840 mi | Check Engine light was on. Message said "Emissions Systems Problem". They thought it was a cat converter problem, but after diagnosis, turned out the injector block needed replacement because it was injecting too much fuel. |
| 45260 mi | As noted from previous problem, the check emissions light came on, but this time, they had a software update to fix the false positive of the check engine light. No charge. (Just wanted to note how awesome they were. I did not book an appointment. I was in the neighbourhood. Asked them about it, and said if i had 30min-1hr, they'd look at it. Left it with them, went and test drove an Odyssey, and when I got back, they were done with the software update. Thanks Maple Honda!) |
| 48568 mi | Dash lights flickering and alarm going off. Replaced ignition switch. |
