EXPERTS REPORT
Despite being appreciably more spacious and functional inside than most competitors, the Pilot is actually smaller and lighter than them as well. This relatively low weight combines with a stiffer structure to make the 2016 Honda Pilot feel impressively solid. -Edmunds.com. Great Gas Mileage: 26 MPG Hwy. Approx. Original Base Sticker Price: $46,800*.

Make sure you buy an extended warranty
by Pilot_Reviewer on Tuesday, July 16, 2019
The 5th Honda in our family and 3rd Pilot, and unfortunately our last. Despite great styling, lots of good features (which requires the ‘Elite’ model), very comfortable ride, and surprisingly good fuel economy, that legendary Japanese reliability has clearly faded. At just over 50K miles the fuel injectors needed replacing - a $1500 repair if we hadn’t bought the $1700 extended warranty, and at just over 60K miles the A/C compressor failed (on a boiling hot day while we were out of state of course) which was a $2000 repair without the warranty. - 2.0
Popping Noise
by E on Monday, April 27, 2020
Honda needs to figure out there infotainment problem. Loud popping and crackle noise from the speakers sounds like the windshield is cracking. Does it with the radio and climate control off or on. Completely annoying and Honda does not have a solution. The noise is LOUD, not enjoyable to drive in. Do not recommend - 2.0
Nothing but trouble
by Dan on Saturday, December 19, 2020
Traded our 2019 pilot touring with 9000 miles on it. Cracking and piping noise in the dash couldn’t be fixed. In the shop three times in one year and the sound always come back. Won’t ever buy another Honda. Lost a lot of money trading in new car, but was worth it to be rid of it.
