20 or 35 mph if I'm at a stop light or release and hit the gas pedal, the vehicle jerks like it was a gas problem, but is not a gas problem or filter problem. It will stop if you release the pedal and hit the gas again. HONDA said if no check engine comes up they can't find the problem and that never has come to their attention. I see a lot of customers having the same problem with no fix. HONDA refuses to check the problem or admit there is a problem. Any fix?

My '11 Pilot only has 65,000 miles on it and the tranny persists to jerk/hesitate/vibrate/stutter when shifting from one gear to another, either up and down. However, it is most noticeable at lower gear shift and at low acceleration. Aside from the annoyance it generates, the sudden pull or jolt in shifting at low gears renders an involuntary reaction from the driver which can lead to safety concerns.

This is the newest experience that I have with my transmission. Recently I realized that when the vehicle is rolling freely at around 40 or 60mph and a sudden application in the gas pedal, there is a hesitation and a hard downshift is felt in the transmission.
This hard shifting sensation is abnormal for a newer transmission which is done only about 20K.
Honda USA representative claims that this is also normal according to their exposure to similar vehicles.
As a user, I am very concerned with the transmission's performances such as whining noises and hard shifting during sudden acceleration.

I just received my moms Honda Pilot that she's had since 2011, car currently has 82,398 miles on it. I notice when I'm on the Highway a the stupid f*ckin ECO light comes on and I press the gas the car hesitates. Also after stopping at a stop sign, then pressing the gas the car also hesitates. I cannot figure out what is causing this problem. Another problems it the cars shifts rough as well.
