| Jul 2022 | STRUCTURE | Our familly was driving down the highway on vacation when there was a very loud noise. I was in the passenger seat and looked back to see large pieces flying off of the car. When we got to a safe place to pull over, we noted that the trim at the bottom of the door, both front and rear had come off of the car. Had we been on the very busy freeway, which we had been a few minutes earlier, these large pieces flying into the air could have hit another vehicle or frightened a driver causing them to cross lanes trying to miss these pieces. The incident was reported to the call center and we were told that it was a known manufacturing default. The dealership denied that there was a manufacturing default and was unsure why we were told that. There was no warning of this incident about to occur. The dealership agreed to repair the vehicle as a "good will" offer. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |

| Apr 2022 | POWER TRAIN,VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL,ENGINE | I leased a brand new 2022 Honda Pilot and after two weeks of leasing it developed a severe leaking problem with the transmission. The pilot was taken to a local dealer, the local dealer refused service. It was then taken to the original dealer, and the original dealer replaced the transmission. There was some sort of metallurgical fault or defect with the transmission casing, necessitating replacement of the entire transmission. The vehicle had less than 500 miles when this happened. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Feb 2022 | SERVICE BRAKES | The contact owns a 2022 Honda Pilot. The contact stated while driving at various speeds, the braking system would erroneously activate causing the vehicle to abruptly reduce speed.

The manufacturer and local dealer were not notified of the failure. The VIN was not available. The failure mileage was 1,000. | Crash: No Fire: No | 1,000 |
| Jan 2022 | SERVICE BRAKES | SUV(Honda Pilot 2022) continues to brake. and lose power after brake pedal has been released causing unsafe and un controlled stopping. ( No warning lights or errors ) We have almost been rear ended do to this. Taken back to dealer to repair after only 200 miles on SUV. Dealer replaced antilock brake module. After repairs SUV seemed to brake normally for about one week then started doing the same thing again but way worse, to the point we didnt think we could make it home. The sticking brakes, loss of power to the SUV got so bad that it was unsafe to operate and was towed to the dealer awaiting another repair...in shop now two times with less then 500 miles for same exact safety issue. This braking issue could possibly cause serious accidents if not remedied soon. Hearing stories other 2022 Hondas are dealing with this issue as well....hoping no one gets seriously hurt if issue is left unaddressed | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
