USA should develop better car to dump Honda.

Honda dealers are khakis and due to amount of business they are getting from USA, they don't care about quality and customer service post sales. When it's comes to comfortness, 2012 Pilot is sold as eight seater but that last row is for the passengers who must be less than 5' toll and must not weight more than 100 LBS. Last/third row do not get sufficient amount of air flow. Maintenance with dealer is very expensive. There is no TPLS reset switch and any issue with it cost you serious amount of money.

Honda - Pilot - CRV - Odyssey

Vehicle covers our needs for towing the family fishing boat. Great for winter driving in our region. This model year cargo space is better than many of the other SUV's available.

Very reliable, excellent condition, smooth ride

This car met all my needs. 3rd row seating, fits 7 people comfortably, rearview camera is wonderful. I am selling because I no longer need the big space. This car has only had 2 owners. Purchased locally.

Trust it, Honda Pilots last...

I've owned Hondas for over two decades now. I honestly have trouble trusting any other make of vehicle. The Pilot has been our go to vehicle since we had a family. Nothing says "comfortable" & "reliable" like a beautiful Honda Pilot!

Biggest piece of SH*T I’ve ever owned!

The HONDA mystic didn’t work for me! This vehicle is “Garbage”. Dealer and Corporate Service is the worst. If I had a do-over I would have returned under the Lemon Law”. Honda Corporate and Dealer are “deceitful” and don’t respond or care about the customer. Honda is bad news. I will NEVER own anther Honda product!!!😬. STAY AWAY. - NOT RECOMMENDED!!!!

So far it is excellent

I replaced my 2005 Honda Pilot with this one. It is as comfortable as my old ombre and runs great. It accelerates well and is a comfortable ride. I'm looking forward to putting a couple of hundred thousand miles on it.
