While driving at night, with rain and fog, the low beam headlights became extremely dim which made it impossible to see the road. Surprisingly both low beam headlights went dim, not effective at all, I had to depend on my fog lights for a bit of visibility. Could it be the headlamp, turn signal switch on the column that has gone bad?? So dangerous, my wife was almost shaking as we slowly made our way home, and we live in the country so scary drive home.

Low beam headlights have failed - bulbs are good, have replaced with known good bulb to no avail. Have read multiple reports of similar problems from other owners of the honda pilot from 2003-2008. There was a recall on the earlier (pre 2005) pilots but the problem was not corrected by honda in later models. This problem affects the vehicle in any state, parked, motor on or off, while vehicle is in operation or standing still. Hi-beam headlights still function properly identical to the problem in the earlier recall. Vehicle has roughly 180,000 miles on it.

Both vehicle low beams simultaneously stopped working while I was driving. I needed to use high-beams to get home. This is very dangerous!! I checked bulbs and fuses and all are in working order.

Passenger side headlight stopped working because the connector/socket had melted. Have not fixed yet but apparently this issue has been recalled on 2003 honda pilots, but not on 2006

Most of button lights on climate control dash and cruise/vsa/sunroof stopped working. I believe they burnt out. Happened to lots of honda owner too. Honda dealership asks for $200-300 to fix this. It's ridiculously expensive to fix their mistake.
