Bought another

This is our second Pilot. Our other one had over 200,000 miles and hoping this one is as awesome! Love all the safety features and Apple car play.

2019 Pilot Elite Is Worth It

This is my 2nd pilot and before that it was an unreliable X5 4.4. The 2019 Pilot was refreshed and the Elite has it almost everything. LED headlights; a second panoramic roof panel over the rear seats; rear heated seats; cooled front seats; a heated steering wheel; automatic high beams; HD radio; and second-row captain's chairs. And the best kept secret is the similar Acura SH AWD system in the Elite. A rear differential, which distributes torque to the rear wheels. What's missing, heads up display and the passenger seat doesn't have tilt function. Did I mention it's faster to 60 than a base Porsche Macan. This truck is so well done, reliable and so inexpensive to keep I don't understand why someone would buy anything else! The ELITE is a wolf in sheep clothing.

Noisy reverberance on uneven pavement. Bumpy.

In Honduras not all the roads are perfect. The car has stiff suspension and on uneven roads the cabin reverberates noisily, making it a less comfortable car. Regret my purchase and feeling stuck.

Reliable car I have owned

I love this car I have a remote access , heated chair in front and the back . Comfortable and has apple car play that I could listen to my favorite station without paying for it . The only thing was the cover for the trunk it has a lot of scratches because of the type of the of cover ( plastic)

Worst car I have ever owned

From day one my 2019 Honda Pilot touring gave us problems. First transmission locking up with 1200 miles, then dash board electrics going blank, and finally the last straw the engine throttles on its own with no foot on the gas pedal. Worst of all Honda would not do any thing about it but tell us to keep driving it until a engine light comes on.......DO NOT BUY a 2019 Honda Pilot as it is a known problem they do not know how to fix

Best car I have owned.

I highly recommend it. Best car I have ever had. I love the back up cam and heated seats. I also enjoy using the sun roof on a nice spring or summer day.
