problem #3

Jan 182006

Pilot 4WD 6-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 28,900 miles
While going at about 20 mph in light rain, car in front of me broke suddenly causing me to hit the brakes. Upon stepping on the brakes, I heard a clicking sound. The car kept on rolling and did not stop. I tried moving left onto a turning lane to avoid hitting the car in front. The car skidded off the median, and car jumped the median without losing velocity. The car wound up on incoming traffic, at which point a car collided with me resulting in injuries to the that driver and myself. Problem is similar to complaint on file ODI id number : 10117818. Problem will be reported to Honda as a possible defect.
