Hood bounces at 60mph and above. Very distracting , unsafe feeling that hood will open and block view. Honda needs a fix for this before it causes a death. Many other owners have reported this unsafe problem.

2016 Honda Pilot, I noticed that the hood seemed raised on the left side, at speed it would shake and bounce so just figured it needed to be adjusted to be flush. The dealer told, then showed, me that it was actually the hood latch that is separating from the hood itself. The tech said they have seen at least three other of these type of issues with the newer body style of the Pilot (I believe it changed in 2015). He sent me to a body shop who also told me that he has seen two others and doesn't feel that I should have to pay $1500 for a new hood when there is obviously a design flaw in the hood latch. Alas, the Honda dealer didn't agree and had to pay to replace the hood! Just wanting to put it out there for others as even the dealer said there will eventually likely be a recall put out.
