Driver's seat rocks back and forth when in motion

- Centreville, VA, USA

When I turn on my seat heater on the drivers seat, it gets so hot it burns my legs.

The front drivers seat bracket has broken. At first it started rocking, then after a few days I heard a crack and realized that the bracket on the front left side of the seat was broken, when I took off the side covers and could see it. The seat now falls backwards. The car was not in an accident. The vehicle has about 196K miles. Given how many others have had this problem, I don't understand why there has not been a safety recall. If it happens with normal usage, then it will happen in an accident. These brackets were not engineered with safety in mind.

Drivers seat felt like it was loose and rocking slightly, then about 1 week later, felt worse. I slid it back to see if a bolt came off, and to my surprise, the steel bracket holding seat to sliding mechanism had completely broken off! I do not weight much and the care has not been in accident, so I believe the engineering of the bracket is insufficient and can lead to a serious accident. I was in my driveway when my seat broke, so fortunately, no one was injured.

The driver seat metal bracket broke while driving normally. I was shocked to learn about this. I have been driving for more than 23 years and had never heard about this situation. It is loose and a very serious safety concerns. As a consumer I expect that a car seat should last a lot longer than the car itself especially the driver seat.

Drivers side heated leather seat gets unbearably hot under right leg.

- Methuen, MA, USA

The drivers side vehicle seat had a slight rock for the last few months...I had it checked at the dealer and they found no problems...today while exiting my vehicle the seat snapped. The front bracket on the left part of the drivers side seat broke. It is an L shaped bracket that holds the seat to the frame. This is a huge safety concern! what would have happened if I was in an accident with the vehicle? (please note this vehicle has never been in an accident and is well taken care of) this is not normal wear and tear and should be recalled immediately to protect other Pilot owners!!

When turning on the driver's side seat heater it got extremely hot. Most recently it actually burned the seat foam and began to smoke. I will not use it anymore for fear of a fire or possible injury. Honda is very aware of the problem but will not acknowledge the issue and has instructed the dealership to ignore as if it does not exist. This is a serious problem that must be addressed. I realize nothing last forever but this should have a safety fuse installed to prevent injury. Thank you

Seat attachment to power adjustment base failed (broken seat bolts). This issue also occurred sometime in 2010 just before the end of the warranty period (less 36K or 36 months), and while at 60 miles per hour. First failure repaired by cush Honda, escondido, ca 92026. This is second failure, same issue, at 0 mph.

Nylon side panel of the back portion of the driver seat has a row of empty stitch holes just under the pleat where the side and the leather seat panels are stitched. The holes started to expand and become larger eventually causing a tear. Other holes are just beginning the process and are starting to expand. Went to my dealer and service manager told me it is happening because of getting in and out of the car. Unsatisfied, he told me he would have regional inspector look at it. She said she could not make a determination and would send picture to a Honda engineer. Service manager took picture with his cell phone. Three weeks later after checking back with them I'm told it's not under warranty and they won't fix it with goodwill. Honda advertises 3 yr, 36000 mile bumper to bumper but for some reason, this is not covered. No explanation was given.
