CarComplaints.com Notes: Previously we had awarded the 2009 Pilot "Seal of Pretty Good", but have since removed that honor due to all the continuing complaints about excessive oil consumption.
This Honda Pilot oil consumption defect was subject to a class action lawsuit in 2013. However not all 2009 Honda Pilots were covered by the settlement & by now the warranty extension has expired. The oil consumption complaints keep coming in.
I just noticed this problem, my husband said car has been making this noise for awhile (shut car off, sounds like air is going up exhaust pipe) ,but I just noticed it. My husband did an internet search and said it may be the catalytic converter , but when he looked at my car no codes or error codes. I have an extended warranty, so I have to take it in to the Honda dealer , and have them check it out !!!
