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.

TPMS light comes on every 100 miles or less. The tire pressures are fine. There is no way to disable the light or the system... thanks Honda. Another check wallet light that only Honda can fix

TPMS warning light is on all the time... I have already replaced 2 of the sensors. I understand there is a software upgrade available. If I knew about the upgrade would I have had to replace the sensors?
