The four doors must receive an usual amount of force for normal closure. We are always leaving a door ajar when we exit. From the inside must pull door with more than usual force. Best to keep hand on door until closed which I have never had to do in a new car and I have purchased numerous new cars over the years. The door feels like dead weight - has almost no closure force. It helps some to open a window or another door to relieve the back pressure but still is not a normal door closure. I have gone to three dealers and nothing they can do since no there is no adjustment. I had a 2009 Pilot and the doors worked just fine. One Honda dealer said the door is likely too heavy for hardware.

Roof rail covers blew off at highway speeds. Poor fit on front roof rail cover moldings leaves air gap. At highway speeds this can cause the 8 foot strips of rubber, pastic moldings to fly off vehicle. This has serious accident potential at highways speeds. Online forums are flooded with similar issues on all trim levels of the 2016 Honda Pilot.
