While it's not a widespread trend with the Pilot, it's a little concerning because of the possibly safety ramifications. While it's certainly something to keep in mind, most Pilot owners are not experiencing this problem.

Recently purchased used car from Honda Dealer.
Within the first couple of days,I noticed an occasional 2 to 4 second delay in acceleration after pressing pedal .This would happen from a stop, or near stop, when trying to merge into traffic. The engine stays operating at about 800 to 1000 RPMS until it decides to accelerate and car moves right out into traffic.This sudden delay,and then the sudden jump into traffic has caused some scary moments and near collisions. This condition only happens about once or twice a week, so it is difficult to demonstrate to the Honda Serviceman.
Have heard of similar situations with 2012 Pilots, but no solutions.
