CarComplaints.com Notes: The 2006 Honda Pilot is a solid trouble-free model year with no major problems reported, except for a minor trend of window regulator failure. However that's an easy fix of a few hundred dollars -- not a big inconvenience for an older vehicle, all things considered.

Rakata recall. I took my car to Honda of chantilly for the passenger side airbag recall. They did the work and gave me my car back. While it was in they replaced the battery, and I asked for the old one back so I could return it to the store where I purchased it for a refund. When I got back in my car to leave, the old battery wasn't in it. I checked and they hadn't replaced my battery. Turns out they did the airbag recall and battery replacement on someone else's car. They had recorded that they had performed the recall and sent me on my way, and if I hadn't asked for my old battery back nobody would have known that I still had the defective airbag in my vehicle. They didn't check the VIN when they did the work.
"takata recall" airbag light came on, Honda replaced the passenger front airbag inflator, and the light came back on they reset the codes the light went off for 1 day. Honda then did a diagnostic test which showed the driver side airbag failed. Honda said due to age of Pilot they could not replace it under recall. Airbag light still is on which doesn't allow the other airbags to deploy. Honda told us the cost would be $638.18. Due to safety factor I feel Honda should replace the airbag free of charge due to the safety factor of the riders in the vehicle because right now we are not protected.

I attempted to contact the local Honda dealer to schedule the repair for the inflator on the front passenger airbag. The letter from Honda said that a passenger should not be seated in the front passenger seat of the Pilot. The Honda dealer told us no parts are available and to check back in 3-4 months. So, I have to find a different way to Transport my family for 3-4 months until maybe some parts are available?? I find this unreasonable.

Takata recall. I received a recall notice on July 5th, 2016. Immediately after receiving the notice, I contacted my nearest Honda dealership (renner in columbus, Indiana). After giving him the paper so he could look at the recall notice and schedule my car for an appointment, he told me that he could not fix the problem. He told me that the only cars it affected were in the tropics. Why would I receive a notice then??
