The design flaw causes the hood to move excessive during windy days. It's much more noticeable during highway speeds. The hood flexes and moves up and down as you drive in windy days. During my life time I have driven my different vehicles including vans and even rv but never seen a hood that moves this much. It's very dangerous over time as metals or bolts could simply give. This hood could one day fly off and hurt or kill someone.

At highway speeds, when passing any oncoming large vehicle, the hood flexes, shudders & moves violently up & down as if it is only held by the secondary latch. When parked, there is no perceptible play or looseness at the latch or hinge area. The dealerships have been no help in resolving this problem.

When driving at highway speeds & a truck or large vehicle passes me in the oncoming lane, my hood vibrates & lifts as if it is being blown open. It's nerve racking & distracting since the car is otherwise quiet & tight. I'm afraid that one of these times the hood will actually fly open. When parked, the hood seems to be tightly closed with little or no play. It only occurs when an on coming vehicle like a semi or bus passes me from front to back. The nearest Honda dealer to our current home is more than 50 miles away. I have owned many other Honda's but this 2017 Pilot is a new body design. This problem occurs every time we drive on highways or a fast moving large vehicle goes by. It has done it since we took delivery of it brand new.
