I opened case #XXX with Honda Motor Co. regarding a fuel-injector issue with my 2019 Honda Pilot AWD. At approximately 32,725 miles, the check-engine light came on. A diagnostic scan displayed code P219A, which was later confirmed by an authorized Honda dealer in [XXX]. Based on my understanding, Honda Technical Service Bulletin (TSB) 21-010 addresses this issue in 2018–2019 Honda Pilot vehicles. However, both Honda Motor Co. and the dealer denied coverage, stating that my vehicle’s VIN is not included under the bulletin. The dealer initially told me there was a 99% chance the repair would be covered, but the following morning I was informed that my VIN did not qualify. Honda also declined to cover the repair as a goodwill adjustment. Instead, Honda offered approximately $400 toward the repair cost without acknowledging that the underlying problem was a Honda-related defect. I declined the offer because I believe Honda should accept responsibility for the issue and cover the full cost of the repair. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

While driving my 2019 Honda Pilot at highway speeds 70 mph, the dashboard suddenly displayed a severe safety warning stating "Transmission Temp Too Hot." There was no prior warning, mechanical symptom, or heavy cargo towing to cause this. The sudden warning forced me to immediately navigate across multiple lanes of fast-moving traffic to pull onto the shoulder of the highway, creating an immediate and dangerous crash hazard. This is a severe mechanical failure that occurs without reason under standard driving conditions, heavily compromising vehicle reliability and occupant safety on the highway. The vehicle has been exclusively and regularly maintained at an authorized Honda dealership according to all factory recommendations. The sudden transmission overheating and subsequent safety hazard occurred despite flawless maintenance compliance, proving this is a severe manufacturing or chemical fluid defect and not a case of owner neglect.

The contact owns a 2019 Honda Pilot. The contact stated that while operating the vehicle, the message "Collision Migration Failure" remained displayed. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer to be diagnosed, and the contact was informed that the front windshield camera needed to be replaced. The failure mileage was 103,000.

Due to the failure of the U 3000–49 Integrated driver sport system Multipurpose camera unit millimeter Wave radar, internal electronic failure there was a near miss when a vehicle Crossed over in front of me at a close proximity. The vehicle has been inspected by the dealership and the U 3000–49 code appeared as a permanent malfunction on the front camera

The contact owns a 2019 Honda Pilot. The contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 26V365000 (Structure, Suspension); however, the part to do the recall repair was not yet available. The dealer was contacted. The dealer confirmed that parts were not yet available. The contact stated that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair.

Car stalled when engine auto idle was engaged after stopping at a stop light. This problem was “fixed” in May 2026 but had started occurring again.

My 2019 Honda pilot started running bad out of no where one day when I turned it on. It had all these codes all of a sudden P0304 P0305 P0306 P0300 P0430 P219B All of these codes are associated with a bulletin on Honda for an extended warranty for 2019 Pilots all makes up to 10yr/150k miles for a fuel injection issue. I took it to Honda and they confirmed that my vehicle has the bad fuel injectors and all those codes that were associated with the bulletin. I tried to go through Honda to get a goodwill for coverage since my Vin is not showing coverage even though my year make and model are. Honda denied my request saying my vin wasn’t covered and because of me being the second owner, the service history and miles. My vehicle has no other issues and should be covered as it’s exactly the codes and issue covered under this.

Vehicle developed a rod knock. Confirmed by a certified automotive technician. The noise is most prevalent between 2200 rpm and up. Upon further research have found that this engine and vehicle are under investigation for my exact issue. The vehicle needs a new engine. In the process now acquiring a new engine to install into vehicle. No check engine light at this time. This is a safety risk and if the engine fails my family will be stranded or it could cause an accident. Have spoken with the local honda dealers service manager. He did confirm that this issue is prevalent in these models and that Honda is refusing to cover it at this point.

The windshield camera stopped working for no reason. Now I’m getting multiple warnings on my dashboard as most of the safety features stopped working when the camera failed. I’ve only owned this vehicle for 7 years. The dealer said that i will need to spend $2k plus to have it replaced and installed. Dealer said it is a common issue. I feel like this is a defect to the camera and it should be recalled. It is unfair for the consumer to spend that amount of money to fix a vehicle part that i expect to be of high quality and fully tested by the manufacturer. These safety features should be available and working to help keep us safe on the road because we paid for them when we purchased the vehicle. I’ve read online that there are a lot of people affected by this issue. I’m hoping that Honda will do something about this.

Traveling on 295 getting off onto Route 6 West, when suddenly the engine stopped working and miraculously I was able to get to the side of the road into the breakdown lane. The vehicle was towed by AAA to a garage. When the mechanic was able to get it started, it sounded like something was clanking around in the engine. He states it appears a rod broke inside the engine. And now I have to put a brand new engine into it or get rid of it.

Having strong raw gas smell when the driver pressing the break to stop from running

Took Pilot to Reilly's for FREE diagnostic reading. Showed misfires in cylinders 4 & 5 & random misfires. Then took to Son's Honda and PAID for the same diagnostic readings which were the same. The Pilot drives in a "limp mode" due to the issue. This issue is a known Honda issue for this year and make model. They have granted some Pilots an extended warranty to resolve the known issues. They say mine doesn't qualify even though it is the exact same issue. Defects with their fuel injector system. A secondary issue is the Transmission. We were traveling 2 hours away on the highway when we got a warning to pull over. Our Transmission fluid was too hot. This is another issue I have found to be a common problem with the 2019 Honda Pilot's and their redesign transmission system.

The contact owns a 2019 Honda Pilot. The contact stated that while accelerating up to 40 MPH, the engine stuttered. The tachometer gauge fluctuated, matching the sounds coming from the engine. The contact associated the failure with TSB: 23-078. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 89,000.

My car started showing dash indicators for problems with Collision Mitigation Braking (CMBS), Lane Keeping Assist (LKAS), Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC), Road Departure Mitigation (RDM), and other driver‑assist functions. I took my car to the dealership and was notified there was an issue with the electrical for the front camera and it needs to be replaced. I was quoted for over $2000 to fix this issue. After some research, it appears this is a known issue and has affected several others and there is currently a class action lawsuit regarding the issue. U3000‑49 is a safety issue because the failed camera disables multiple collision‑avoidance and lane‑keeping systems, removing automated protections that help prevent accidents.

Auto Start / Stop for the engine when coming to a stop at idle. We cannot replicate the situation over and over, but it has happened numerous times. If the auto start stop feature is allowed to function and the vehicle motor turns off at a stop sign or a stop light, it sometimes does not turn back on when you let off the brake and push the accelerator. This puts us in a very dangerous situation at intersections with a stalled out car. It sometimes takes several minutes to restart the car, all the while (my wife usually drives this car) she is panicking while cars honk and swerve around her disabled car. Honda dealer has been less than helpful stating they cannot do anything unless they can replicate it in the shop. Most recent incident happened today while my wife was driving to work.

The motor is misfiring on cylinder 5 due to faulty engine components. The vehicle is available for inspection on request. My safety and children’s are at risk as the cabin fills up with raw fuel fumes and makes you feel dizzy. It is also a huge safety risk that I have a failed motor and not one sensor or computer component came up to warn on the dashboard(aka engine light). The problem was brought to two different Honda dealers and the second one confirmed all this is true and faulty due to the manufacturers. No it hasn’t been inspected because we can’t get corporate to take us seriously or call us back in the right department. There were no warning lights on and it first appeared since the injectors were replaced.

VEHICLE: 2019 Honda Pilot EX VIN: [XXX] CURRENT MILEAGE: 77,000 miles COMPLAINT DESCRIPTION: I am filing a critical safety complaint regarding a catastrophic transmission failure that actively disables my vehicle's advanced driver-assist and automated safety systems while driving, creating a severe crash hazard. At approximately 36,085 miles, the vehicle experienced a severe torque converter judder. The dealership performed an 11-quart transmission fluid service. Immediately following this service, the vehicle began suffering from unpredictable, cascading dashboard warning lights that completely disable the vehicle's automated safety braking, forward-facing camera suites, and vehicle stability systems. The dealership repeatedly misdiagnosed this powertrain fault as a camera/sensor issue, charging me out-of-pocket for a front multipurpose camera replacement that did not resolve the issue. At 77,000 miles, the transmission suffered a complete failure. A diagnostic tear-down confirmed a stuck solenoid valve and destructive metal shards circulating throughout the transmission and fluid lines. The primary safety hazard is that the mechanical failure of the powertrain and torque converter actively sends erratic data to the vehicle's central computer, instantly shutting down the automatic emergency braking system, lane-keep assist, and forward collision warnings while the vehicle is in motion on public roads. This forces the driver to operate without critical automated safety featur

The contact owns a 2019 Honda Pilot. The contact stated that while driving, the vehicle experienced an intermittent catalytic converter warning light that turned on and off on the instrument panel. The contact referenced Technical Service Bulletin: 21-010; however, the vehicle was not included in the TSB. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The dealer confirmed the failure and stated that the vehicle was not included in the TSB. The vehicle was scheduled for the repair. The failure mileage was approximately 50,000.

NHTSA ACTION # PE25008 2019 HONDA PILOT AWD EXPERIENCING LOUD TICKING NOISES FROM EGINE BAY 3,OOO MILE OIL CHANGES AT DEALER SINCE BOUGHT NEW RULING OUT NEGLEGT VALVES RECENTLY ADJUSTEDAND TIMING COMPONENTSREPLACED AT 60,OOO MILES INCLUDING LEAKING IDLER ARM

Honda DTC U3000-49 Internal Electronic Failure of the Multipurpose Camera. Ran into an issue where most if not all system modules began flashing warnings in the instrument cluster. The last time this happened, we found our original factory Honda battery to have finally failed. We replaced the battery 6 months ago, thus it's basically new. Naturally we thought possibly that something happened to the battery again, so we brought it back to Goodyear, and they ran tests. Alternator charging system was good, and so was the battery. They reset the system, and all of the warning lights went away for about 5 minutes. After idling for about 5 minutes, all of the random warning lights came back on the instrument cluster. Since the system was reset, the only thing that was flagged after pulling the codes post-reset was U3000-49, which after some research appears to be somewhat common. I talked to my local Honda dealer and they said the cost to fix this is in the mid to high $2000 range. I had to pay Goodyear $67.98 due to the fault not being with their installed battery, and they let the car go saying they couldn't do anything, so I contacted Honda.

The component that has failed or malfunctioned is the A/C Compressor Shaft Seal. It is available for inspection upon request. During a heat wave in Southern California, the ambient temperature failed to lower inside the vehicle's cabin. Causing potential heat stress-related injuries if prolonged. It has been documented under Technical Service Bulletin 23-050 for Honda vehicles. The component was inspected by a Honda Service Center. No warning lamps or messages appeared. Symptoms of the problem only came to light during a heat wave advisory in Southern California.

VEHICLE RUNNING ROUGH AND EMISSIONS LIGHT CAME ON. DEALER ANALYZED AND FOUND ERROR CODE P0430. ALL FUEL INJECTORS REPLACED AT COST OF $1,097.53 WHEN VEHICLE HAD ONLY 76,890 MILES.

Problem lights say systems are working.

I have issues with my 2019 honda pilot front windshield camera. when the front-facing camera malfunctions, it simultaneously shuts down multiple Honda Sensing driver-assistance systems. The front sensor camera mounted behind the windshield fails or glitches, causing simultaneous failures in adaptive cruise control, automatic emergency braking, forward collision warning, and lane-keeping assist. The failure triggers a cascade of multiple warning messages (such as "adaptive cruise control problem" or "road departure mitigation system problem") i want Honda to repair it under recall.

Rearview camera is showing up as green and purple on the screen. It makes seeing what is behind the car hard when in reverse. Dealer does not know what caused it but it started as intermittent but now is constant

This vehicle is equipped with Honda's Auto Idle Stop (AIS) system, which shuts the engine off automatically when the vehicle comes to a stop and is designed to restart it when the brake pedal is released. On XXX, while stopped at a light at approximatly [XXX], the engine shut off as normal, but failed to restart when I released the brake. The vehicle was inoperable for approximately one to two minutes while stopped in a busy traffic muilti-lane road at a light over an expressway, creating a serious risk of being struck from behind by other traffic. This is not an isolated occurrence, I experience this AIS no-restart failure on a regular/recurring basis, not just this one time. I am aware that Honda has issued service bulletins related to this issue (TSB 23-008, TSB 23-009) and that this defect is the subject of a certified class action settlement (In re Honda Idle Stop Litigation, No XXX). I believe this represents an ongoing safety defect that creates a real risk of a collision, particularly in higher-speed or higher-traffic conditions where a temporarily immobile vehicle is a hazard to itself and surrounding traffic. This vehicle has a rebuilt/salvage title (repaired and retitled prior to my purchase; it passed state inspection and is legally registered and roadworthy). When I contacted Honda about repair under the applicable service bulletins (TSB 23-008 / TSB 23-009) for this defect, I was told the rebuilt title status disqualifies this vehicle from that repair coverage.

The car stalled in an intersection. The auto idle function had engaged when the car came to a full stop, but when i took my foot off the break it did not restart. It took a couple of tries to get it to restart, leaving my car in the intersection. This problem has been happening on and off since I bought it used in 2022. In May 2025, a Honda dealership near me made a valve adjustment and replaced the starter, which was supposed to have fixed the issue. However, it recently started occurring again.

My 2019 Honda Pilot EX AWD (VIN [XXX]) with approximately 80,000 miles developed a check engine light along with dashboard messages indicating an Emissions System Problem and AWD System Problem. The vehicle continued to drive normally, but the warnings repeatedly returned. Diagnostic code P0172 (System Too Rich, Bank 1) was present. The vehicle was inspected by an authorized Honda dealer on XXX which diagnosed failed fuel injectors and recommended replacement of the injector assembly at a cost of approximately $1,689. The failed components and dealer records are available for inspection upon request. While the vehicle has not experienced a loss of propulsion, I am concerned that a fuel injector defect could lead to engine performance issues, increased emissions, reduced reliability, or unsafe operating conditions if the condition worsens while driving. Honda has previously acknowledged fuel injector issues on certain 2017-2019 Honda Pilot vehicles and issued a warranty extension covering fuel injector repairs for eligible VINs. However, despite a dealer diagnosis of failed fuel injectors, I was informed that my VIN is not covered by the existing warranty extension. The vehicle has been inspected and the injector failure has been confirmed by a Honda dealership. Prior to diagnosis, the only symptoms were the check engine light and the Emissions System Problem and AWD System Problem warning messages. These warnings first appeared at approximately 80,000 miles. I am submitting t

Have a 2019 Honda Pilot - Fuel injector failure/Catalytic Converter at 115,000 miles. estimated cost over $2,200. KNOWN MANUFACTURING DEFECT: Honda Service Bulletins 20-100, 21-002, 22-002 acknowledge widespread fuel injector failures in 2019 Honda Pilots caused by debris from manufacturing process. Honda extended warranty to 10 years/150,000 miles for certain VINs. My VIN is excluded despite identical failures and many others complaint of the same issue. Something needs to be done to hold Honda accountable!!!!

I am having transmission issues with my 2019 Honda pilot. There is an extended warranty service bulletin out, Honda USA claims my vehicle does not fall under that extended warranty based on the VIN. I am experiencing all of the symptoms of the fuel injector issues that they report in the bulletin. I am unable to get anybody at Honda to help me.

Abnormal operation and intermittent failure of multipurpose camera, my dashboard is showing warning lights for LKAS, Cruise, auto-high beams, collision mitigation, road Departure mitigation.

Rod bearing failure, diagnosed by Honda Service. At a stop light, vehicle starting making very loud noises (video proof). I pulled over right away and had it towed to not risk an accident or more damage. Honda(same place that the vehicle was purchased at did most preventive maintenance) diagnosis: "Engine Major Miscellaneous | rod bearing failure. removed timing covers and confirmed t belt is intact and holding tension. was able to start motor momentarily and confirmed rod bearing noise. replace motor with used engine" I asked Honda Coporation for a goodwill claim and help and the claim was denied. I appealed this decision. I am asking Honda to consider whether the actual cause of my engine failure could be consistent with the type of internal engine concerns that have been documented on comparable vehicles, and to give my case the attention that such a serious failure warrants. In particular, I asked that Honda: - Reviews the complete authorized-dealer diagnosis, technician notes, repair estimate, and any teardown findings. - Determines and document the specific failed bearing and the suspected root cause of the failure. Review the oil condition, lubrication findings, crankshaft condition, and any other evidence that may explain why the rod bearing failed. -Preserves the failed components and diagnostic records while this request is being reconsidered. -Considers full or substantial goodwill assistance toward repair or engine replacement, including parts coverage, labor assi

My engine light came on, and the codes reported were P0441 P04F1 U0401 and P0172. I took the car to the dealer for a diagnostic and they stated it was the fuel injectors. Their is a TSB 21-010 related to this situation, however my car's vin wasn't covered by the TSB. I have two coworkers with the same engine, and they had the same issues and were covered on the TSB. I spoke with my local shop to get a quote and they mentioned doing a lot of fuel injector replacement on Honda lately. It seems like the scope of the TSB wasn't wide enough to include all affected VINs.

The contact owns a 2019 Honda Pilot. The contact stated that the check engine warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer and was diagnosed with fuel injector failure. The contact was informed that the fuel injectors needed to be replaced. The fuel injectors were replaced. The contact became aware of Technical Service Bulletin: 21-010, NHTSA ID Number: 10187008 (Engine and Engine Cooling, Electrical System, Equipment, Power Train). The contact called the dealer, and it was confirmed that the VIN was not covered under an extended warranty. The manufacturer was informed of the issue and confirmed that the vehicle was not included. The manufacturer referred the contact to the NHTSA Hotline to report the failure. The failure mileage was 91,670.

My dash will light up and say that cruise control is not working and lane keep assist is also not working

The vehicle experienced a check engine light with code P0430 and a failed Air/Fuel ratio test due to defective fuel injectors leaking raw fuel into the exhaust bank. This failure completely mirrors the factory defect in Honda Service Bulletin A21-010 (NHTSA ID: 10187008), which extends the fuel injector warranty to 10 years/150,000 miles. A certified Honda dealer verified the exact codes and components but explicitly denied the mandatory corporate warranty extension, attempting to charge $1,804.51 out-of-pocket and ignoring subsequent communication. Unburned raw fuel dumping into the catalytic converter presents a progressive engine failure and exhaust safety hazard.

When at a red light or stop sign the vehicle will idle and turn off. The vehicle doesn’t want to restart. It takes a bit to get started again then it progresses.While parked I turned the car off for 5 minutes and it would not start up again. Tried the jump cables to make sure it wasn’t the battery had to have a tow truck come they were able to get the car jumped and started. Took the battery to get tested and the battery was perfectly fine. Something is wrong with the starter. It doesn’t happen all the time but it has happened to me a few times and it’s not safe with me and kids in the car.

The contact owns a 2019 Honda Pilot. The contact stated that while merging onto the highway at 40 MPH, the vehicle lost power and several warning lights illuminated on the instrument panel. The contact coasted the vehicle to the shoulder of the highway, and the vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic. The independent mechanic diagnosed that an unknown engine component failed, causing the timing belt to snap and resulting in engine failure. The contact associated the failure with NHTSA Action Number: PE25008 (Engine). The dealer was notified of the failure and informed the contact that there were no open recalls associated with the VIN. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 130,000.

Warning lights and problems

We have had the car since bought new in 2019 and has about 105k miles. Since then it has had 4 new batteries and going to the dealership again for the same issue. The car struggles to start sometime and other we have to take multiple sttemps to hit the start button. Even then it feels like it is struggling to start. Also if we leave the start/stop fucnction "On" it stugggles to start at stop lights and in the most recent case it did the start at a stoplight once again. This has happened multiple time since we got the car and the dealership has done all the recalls and repalced the battery multiple time. This newest case the battery is new from Honda and less then a year old. We are afraid and concerned if the car will turn on anytime we go somewhere and trust my 2012. No warning light or anything comes on. If stopped in the wrong place this can cause a serious accident or injury.

Beginning last week, when shifting into reverse, the infotainment display (showing camera image) displays distorted, scrambled, or rolling color lines. Although Many 2019–2022 Honda Pilot SUVs are covered by an official safety recall (NHTSA Campaign 23V431) due to a defective coaxial cable connector (MOST connector) that deforms terminals and loses connection, this particular vehicle is not included in this safety recall. As we have young children, our safety is at risk because the rear-facing camera is not functional. Vehicle has not yet been inspected by manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others. There were no warning lamps, messages or other indications or symptoms of the problem prior to the failure. I am happy to make the vehicle available for inspection.

The contact owns a 2019 Honda Pilot. The contact stated that while reversing, the rear-view camera displayed a purple and green screen. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired by a dealer or an independent mechanic. The manufacturer was notified of the failure by email, but no response was provided. The failure mileage was approximately 112,000.

This vehicle exhibits an issue with the fold down sun visors on both sides whereby the hinge mechanism is extremely tight. So much to the point that the sun visors will no longer fold up out of the drivers view. Additionally, if the vehicle was to be involved in an accident the front driver and passenger's heads would likely impact the partially lowered sun visor possibly resulting in additional injury. When brought to the attention of the service department at my local dealer, I was told there is no way to lubricate the hinge mechanism and I'd have to purchase new sun visors as it is a trim item not covered by my extended warranty. This issue started to occur around the 90,000 mile mark and has continued to get worse. The vehicle currently has approximately 120,000 miles now.

Lane System Camera Failure

The Auto Idle Stop/Start system on my 2019 Honda Pilot has failed at least a dozen times. When the vehicle is stopped and Auto Idle Stop shuts off the engine, the engine sometimes fails to restart when the driver attempts to proceed. The dashboard lights illuminate, but the engine does not restart. The driver must turn the vehicle completely off and manually restart it. The vehicle is available for inspection. This has created a serious safety concern. On multiple occasions, the failure happened to a young driver in my family while stopped at a busy intersection. When traffic began moving, the Pilot would not restart and remained unexpectedly stopped in an active traffic lane. There was no warning that the vehicle would fail to restart, leaving the driver trying to shut down and restart the vehicle while traffic was moving around them. I have taken the vehicle to an authorized Honda dealer multiple times regarding this issue. This is now my third attempt to have the problem addressed. The dealer is now performing the applicable Honda warranty work related to the Auto Idle Stop no-restart condition. There have been no warning lamps or messages immediately before these failures. The Auto Idle Stop system appears to operate normally until the engine is supposed to restart. At that point, the engine fails to restart and dashboard warning lights illuminate. The vehicle has not been inspected by police or insurance representatives.

The contact owns a 2019 Honda Pilot. The contact stated that the engine light was illuminated. The transmission emission message was displayed. The contact stated that the failure was associated with DTC: P0777. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer, who recommended a transmission flush. After the transmission flush the vehicle failed to shift from second to third gear. The vehicle was taken to the dealer a second time and another transmission flush was recommended and the dealer eventually determined that the transmission needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was contacted, and a case was filed. The failure mileage was approximately 124,000.

The connecting rod snapped in my 2019 Honda Pilot V6 engine at 102,000 miles. This is the exact mechanical failure described in NHTSA Recall 23V-751, but Honda is refusing to repair it due to a VIN exclusion. The dealership has confirmed this was a sudden, unpreventable structural component failure.

MY 2019 HONDA PILOT EX-L WAS STOLEN FROM OUR DRIVEWAY IN JERSEY CITY, NJ ON OR ABOUT JULY 16, 2026. THE VEHICLE WAS LOCKED. BOTH FACTORY KEY FOBS REMAINED IN MY POSSESSION AND WERE INSIDE MY RESIDENCE AT THE TIME.

The entertainment system shuts down and repeatedly restarts during driving. When it shuts down, an error screen states "Network Communication Lost" and "MOST NET OFF". When it shuts down, the rearview camera function fails when the vehicle is in the reverse gear. Using today's date. This failure has occurred repeatedly. The NHTSA Recall Number: 23V-431 does not include this VIN; however, the failure symptoms appear to be identical
