Recently purchased used car from Honda Dealer.

Within the first couple of days,I noticed an occasional 2 to 4 second delay in acceleration after pressing pedal .This would happen from a stop, or near stop, when trying to merge into traffic. The engine stays operating at about 800 to 1000 RPMS until it decides to accelerate and car moves right out into traffic.This sudden delay,and then the sudden jump into traffic has caused some scary moments and near collisions. This condition only happens about once or twice a week, so it is difficult to demonstrate to the Honda Serviceman.

Have heard of similar situations with 2012 Pilots, but no solutions.

Purchaser a Honda Pilot EX-L 4 WD -- 8-2012.Few weeks after purchase. I noticed that when you slowed down and pressed down on the accelerator .The Pilot did not respond, but hesitated. When the Pilot does respond it lurch's forward. This happens when you come up to a traffic light and slow down to turn left or trying to enter on to the Interstate or coming in or out of a parking lot. I have taken to the Honda Dealer on this problem but they have not found it or fixed the problem. Several times because of this problem, I have come close to having a wreak. To me this is a serious problem that Honda needs to address. My previous SUV was a 2004 Honda Pilot EX-L 4WD did not have this problem. There has to be a solution to this problem?
