CarComplaints.com Notes: We all want our SUVs to be able to stop on a dime, just not randomly and without warning. But that's what was happening to 2005 Pilot owners: their vehicles were slamming on the brakes even when they didn't. A government investigation of this problem led to a recall in March of 2013.

Another issue that keeps popping up is transmission fluid mixing with coolant in the radiator which is causing transmission failure, a costly repair to say the least.

I bought this 2005 Honda Pilot used and I only received one key that is mounted in a clicker. shortly after that the bottom of the clicker crumbled and My key fell out. I cannot lock my car or hardly start the car. I have the key that was in the clicker, but I still am told I have to pay to get a new key and it reprogrammed.this is a manufacturing problem because it was not dropped, it crumbled on its own.I need help paying for this to get fixed.
