2012 honda pilot common problems

[@hoseaallen9068]

So much neglect. My 2013 pilot still looks and smells brand new with 192,000 miles on it. If you take care of your vehicle it will definitely last. I have zero issues or complaints about mine. I absolutely love it.

2010 Pilot with over 265k miles. 1. Same problem with faux leather console and armrests. FYI: You can peel the outer layer back, leaving the cloth backing. Paint it with a couple of coats of spray paint, give it time to dry, and it buys you time and looks good. You can also disassemble them and replace with new cloth-backed vinyl. 2. Alternator quit a couple years ago. About three hours total for me to replace. Bought the serpentine belt, but did not change, as the motor mount on that side would have to be disconnected and motor lifted for clearance. 3, Replaced rear shocks when the vehicle began to fishtail at high speed after new tires installed. Much better after. 4. Intermittent A/C operation was due to a faulty relay under the hood. Easy fix. Look it up if you're having delayed cooling after activating A/C. 5. Adding engine oil is a pain: Take breather hose keepers out, swing breather hose out of the way. Use long funnel to reach oil fill hope, which is very difficult to leverage the oil cap off from. 6. Front passenger door refused to open halfway on my trip to Florida last week. What a pain to have to deal with. Bought a new locking mechanism but ultimately had to take to dealer for repair, as I cannot get the door open to replace it myself. I will probably pay the 62 bux and buy the driver's door latch while I can still get the door open. Very important to you 4WD owners: Do not EVER allow this car to be towed. It must be loaded on a flat trailer if towing becomes necessary. Front wheels on the ground will ruin transmission. Rear wheels on the ground will ruin rear diff assembly. Check your owner's manual in section on towing; it will say the same thing.

Looking into getting a 2011 with 96,000 kilometers the touring edition, anything I should look for in particular when I go look at it? How long did you own it, and overall has it been a reliable vehicle for you?

[@flats-hopper4351]

Can the 4wd be towed on neutral with out damage?

[@maggieg5719]

netdoctor1 Look up VCM problems regarding the oil issue!!!

[@RaiderZone]

2012 Honda Pilot Touring with 195k miles. Here are some of the issues I ran into as well as some advice: 1. All leather interior. No issues with wear and tear. The only sign of any wear is on the middle console cover, but it's nowhere near as bad as the one in this video. 2. Rear differential fluid -- Change this often. I shoot for every 25-30k miles (book recommends every 30k). You can prob get away with every 35-40k. 3. Transmission fluid -- Change it every 40-50k miles, especially if you have AWD. Transmission repairs on AWD are exponentially higher than FWD. Don't neglect this! 4. Timing belt and spark plugs -- Change every 95-100k. Use OEM parts and change the water pump while you're in there (saves time/money) 5. The VCM (Variable Cylinder Management) -- This shuts off cylinders when ECO mode engages and can start to have issues after 150k miles. You'll notice oil running a quart or so low between oil changes. Might have an error code or check engine light. Get it reprogrammed at a dealer or consider disabling VCM with an aftermarket tuner. 6. Steering knock or clunk noise -- Hear this when turning the wheel across center traveling at low speeds. Started happening to me around 150k miles. There's a nut you can tighten at the base of the steering wheel shaft column to fix. Also consider applying some white lithium grease to that area. A respectable Honda dealership won't charge much to do this. 7. Rattle noise in the front when going over bumps -- Check the stabilizer links. When on a lift, tap with two fingers to diagnose. Recommend replacing both sides at 160-180k miles. 8. Low beam headlights stop working -- Light switch and wiring harness at the steering wheel is known to burn out on these. Mine went out at 190k miles. 9. Shocks and Struts -- Needed replaced at 160k miles on my Pilot Don't let these scare you away if you are considering buying one used. A lot of these issues will hit between 150-180k miles, but once you're past that hump, you're in good shape until the transmission needs rebuilt. Overall, these are extremely reliable SUVs!

[@MrGeek847]

Going to look at a 2012 Touring myself. 137k miles Water pump, Timing belt and Alternator was replaced. Didn’t see spark plugs tho. $15k price. Excellent history with Carfax. 1 owner. Would you?🧐

[@RaiderZone]

@@MrGeek847 $15k sounds a little high to me, but then again in today's market, maybe that's not so bad. 137k miles for a 2012 is pretty low. Should at least get another 30-40k miles before having to do suspension work. As for spark plugs, they must have been replaced by now, or it would be noticeably "missing" when idling. If you have any friends that are mechanics, see if one will check it out for you before buying. The 2012 Pilot Touring is a solid vehicle, and I'd buy it all over again...no regrets!

[@MrGeek847]

@@RaiderZone Thanks for your reply!! Of course the one I looked at was sold. BUT there is another one 140k. My thing is, and it will sound silly, but isn’t this like a Mom/Dad type car?

Just getting thoughts. Lol

[@RaiderZone]

@@MrGeek847 Totally a mom/dad/family SUV. At least with the Touring model, you'll get all the bells & whistles from that time period, but it's not giving up a "single" vibe! And it's a gas guzzler. Lucky to get 23 on the highway when new, and I'd bet it's only getting 20-21 now. Compare that to a new Traverse that gets 27.

[@mannyvega5032]

This gen also had the axle shudder issue. Usually you would notice a shudder sensation during hard acceleration. The front axles are the problem. Also the front fans will eventually go out either causing the ac to not work or an over heat problem at idle in traffic. If you have this vehicle or want to buy this vehicle get the VCMmuzzler so it stays out of VCM mode. When the computer shuts down the rear cylinders the problem is being caused because the oil builds up because there is no spark, or combustion. Other than that they are great cars, i own a 2011 EX-L

As a side note, my 2012 receives meticulous care and the interior pieces degraded like his. It seems the bear grease my wife slathers on, ruins the plastic. This weekend I am replacing the throttle position sensor. At 160m miles. I noticed it accelerating with les power when Storting from a stop. The fuel mileage in city driving suffered as well.

[@RaiderZone]

Did that help? I'm at 195k miles, and it definitely hesitates before accelerating from a complete stop. I've also noticed fuel mileage taking a hit. Barely gets 16 city / 22 hwy.

[@markhowell25]

I had a problem with the cylinder cutout system where it would loose power and run rough, It would also cause cylinders to pump the oil out of the engine. I had checked oil after an oil change and within 100 miles the check engine light came on hand there was no oil on the dipstick. I bypassed that system with a microprocessor on the temp sensor meant to do just that. Cylinder 3 lost the igniter. I am going to suggest changing the plug whenever changing a coil. The car jack it came with won’t push the car up high enough to change the tire. I bought the one they use on An f150, that does it easily.

[@bacarysligh8943]

Performance rotors, pads, calipers, and plugs surpass OEM from Amazon and Rockauto.

[@0071981mike]

so a couple of problems i run into with these, one the air duct on them for the intake that links the air filter to the throttle body breaks alot during the cold months , thus causing unmetered air not calculated by the MAF sensor and end up with lower power and misfires. second is the purge control valve, they fail all the time with a p0458 to pop up. when i see that code, it is 100 percent of the time the purge control valve. and last and most expensive is the misfire these things will have. it comes down to ultimately is the piston rings on cylinders 1-3 and sometimess 4 are fouling the spark plugs. honda did offer a warranty extension but is out of phase now. if you ever run into a misfire, take it to a honda dealership, i have seen honda take care of the whole bill or partially, just depends on the mood the person that is on the other line. never run into the piston rings sticking to the cylinder.
