The dashboard has a popping/cracking noise all the time like electric short when listening to music or radio it sounds like a scatch cd all the time or if the stereo its off still does it I have take it to the dealer four times they said they know about the problem but are waiting on honda for the next step but there are a lot of cars affected with the same problem I hope they do a recalled to fix this
My 2019 honda randomly brakes while I'm driving almost causing someone to rear end me, and other times almost causing me to be in accidents. In addition, at 19k miles my transmission went out (started catching, making a grinding noise) while I was driving on the interstate and caused the vehicle to decelerate. I pulled off the road turned the vehicle off, once restarted it decelerated and the transmission light, emissions light and blind spot light came on the dash board.
Randomly the center counsel display will go blank as well as the driver's side display which contains the speedometer. Also failing at the same time is the dvd player. We also experience a 'popping' noise through the speakers, even with audio system turned off. This usually is what happens first, then error messages (for example: 'radio unavailable', 'no audio connection for fm', 'network communication lost', 'check tuner'), then screen goes blank. When this happens while the driver is driving, they are unable to activate or deactivate specific safety controls including lane keep assist, cruise control, automatic braking etc. The automatic braking warning is also lost when the display goes out, as well as the speedometer. When this happens , both display screens turn off and go black, which are huge safety concerns. From the center display, we lose the back up camera, radio, navigation, dvd player and ability to make hands free phone calls among other things. This can occur daily, every time the car is driven, or sporatic and not happen for a few days at a time. Car was purchased brand new in april 2019. Problem began in the beginning of august 2019, exact date unknown. Problems occur while the car is in motion or stationary, city streets, highway and at any speed and any time.
Clicking noising when in reverse or turning and also stalls between 40and 50 MPH transmission has hard time shifting also sensitive breaking system always breaking lights comes on or it will suddenly break by itself.all this while car is in motion
1st problem...video display worked only intermittently. 1st visit, wolfchase honda updated software, problem continued. 2nd visit they replaced video unit. 2nd problem...speakers started making crackling noise. Went on their site to make appt and received a notice that ot a recall notice about electrical issue (or a fleet campaign not sure which). They updated software on that 3rd visit. Speaker problem worsened after that visit and speedometer display and video (stereo system, navigation etc) would blank out while driving. System would generally reset but only after 30 seconds of non visibility to my speed, cruise control status etc.. Took it back for 4th visit. They stated they found an issue with tailgate sensor. Picked it up on friday oct 4th and it started making the crackling noise in the speakers again yesterday, oct 5th. Last time, it eventually got worse until speedometer stopped working. Plan to make another appt (my 5th) this week. Craclking noise occurs when stopped, when driving, when vehicle is turned off (after being on). Video and speedometer display stop working when driving.
Drivers side mirror shakes while driving. Center control stopped working completely. Loud sound will come over on the radio and then all systems stop working. Back up camera does not work, radio does not work. Vehicle is turned off but the center control screen is frozen on and will not turn off. When on the bluetooth, recipient caller cannot hear person initiating the call.
While driving my 2019 honda pilot at 25mph or 60mph, without warning in the speedometer area emergency messages began flashing: power steering, transmission, lane mitigation, brakes, cruise control, engine, etc. With a message that says stop the vehicle and call the dealer. Their instruction is to hold the stop/start button down,until the car stops and then start the vehicle,if you can, and head for the dealership. The problem is the message continues while you continue driving. The transmission does not shift properly, and the steering feels less responsive. By the way you cannot use the rear hatch to get in or out of the vehicle. I will be taking it in to the dealership for the second time in two weeks for the same problem. No effective repair. I live in north dakota and my dealership is 130 miles one way. My wife is now afraid to drive the car. Can you help me. I bought the car new.
Tl* the contact owns a 2019 honda pilot. While driving various speeds, the front driver side brake sensor activated and sounded a warning beeping. Erroneously, which signaled the contact to brake. In addition, the brake senor warning indicator illuminated. The failure occurred intermittently. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer has not notififed. The failure mileage was 110,000. This has occurred since I purchased the car. *bf dealer has been notified. The sales rep told me that other people are reporting this issue too and that there will probably be an update to the car's software at some paint in the future.
This happened to me twice. Seems to be when using cruise control for over 1.25 hrs. When you press the cancel button on the steering wheel to cancel the set cruise control, the cars "check engine" light starts flashing. The engine will continue running but there is little to no power when stepping on the accelerator. Driver must pull over, turn off car and then restart. This is incredibly dangerous at high speeds or crossing over oncoming traffic! I brought the honda pilot back to the dealership. The service manager told me that both he and the district rep. Had the same thing happen to them last month with their 2019 honda pilot. Neither of them had any advice for me. But they were notably quite worried about the possibilities of this and immediately asked to hook a computer up to my car to try to find an error code. They found none! Again, incredibly dangerous!!! Apparently the honda engineers aren't aware of why this is happening! I was told to "just keep driving it" we can't have the only three 2019 honda pilots that are doing this...... I fear someone will get injured.
