Glad I had high beams and driving lights a few miles from home. Could have been a tow if I was at work 60 miles away. Honda recalled them, but not my year. Still see the same problems on 2016/2017.

problem #1

Pilot VP 3.5L V6

  • Automatic transmission
  • 89,783 miles

We drove on the freeway going to Chino Hills, we were parking when we noticed that there's no reflections of light in front of the car where we parked in, we checked and found out that the headlights are not working! We did not have any choice but to drive our Honda Pilot in the middle of the night even though it's totally dangerous passing intersections and freeway with headlights not working. I went to auto shop the next day to have it checked and per the result of the test it was found that it was an electrical problem. I made a research on the problem and I was shocked to learn that the same problem had occurred on the HONDA PILOT 2004-2005 RECALL wherein the low beam head lights not working. This means that the said problem/issue was not resolved since 2008 HONDA PILOT should be included on the RECALL. We are appealing that this complaint be addressed and taken care of immediately in order not to put anybody in danger and to prevent further harm and trouble to any of your customer in particular.

Thank you very much.
