Honda Pilot Recalls
Summary
Issue: On certain vehicles, the brake pedal assembly may not have been manufactured properly. As a result, the brake pedal could move and cause you not to be able to apply the brakes properly, or to apply the brakes unexpectedly. This could also cause the brake lights to turn on without pressing the brake pedal. Safety Risk: Reduced braking and/or braking unexpectedly could increase the risk of a crash. Additionally, brake lights that turn on without the brake pedal being pressed could cause others not to recognize when the vehicle is braking or not braking and increase the risk of a crash. Corrective Actions: The company will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to inspect and, if necessary, replace the brake pedal assembly.
Summary
Issue: On certain vehicles, the third-row passenger-side seat belt may not have been routed correctly and could be trapped behind an interior panel. As a result, the seat belt can't be used. Safety Risk: Not wearing a seat belt can increase the risk of injury in a crash. Corrective Actions: To reduce the safety risk, Honda advises that if the seat belt can't be latched, you shouldn't transport a passenger in the third-row passenger-side seat until the recall repairs are completed. Honda will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to inspect and, if necessary, correct the routing of the seat belt.
Summary
Issue: On certain vehicles, a software problem in the fuel injection electronic control unit could cause the engine to stall while driving.

Corrective Actions: Honda will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to update the fuel injection electronic control unit software.
Summary
Issue: Under certain conditions, a software problem could cause the wrong view mode to display when the transmission is shifted into reverse.

Note: Vehicles that received a software update previously under a Honda product update, campaign no. P01 - 'Incorrect Rear View Camera View Mode', don't require this repair. Safety Risk: A rearview camera image that doesn't display the correct view mode could reduce a driver's field of view behind the vehicle. This could increase the risk of a crash. Corrective Actions: Honda will notify owners by mail and have sent a wireless over-the-air software update to eligible vehicles to update the vehicle software. Alternatively, you may schedule an appointment to have the update performed at a Honda dealership.
Summary
Issue: On certain vehicles, the fuel filler pipe may not have been connected properly to the filler neck. As a result, the connection could separate in a crash, and fuel could leak.

Corrective Actions: Honda will notify owners in writing and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to inspect and, if necessary, reposition the fuel filler pipe.
Summary
Issue: This recall is for low-pressure fuel pumps installed on certain vehicles or sold at dealerships as a replacement part. On certain vehicles, the low-pressure fuel pump could fail. If this happens, the engine may run rough or may not start and the check engine light may turn on. This could also result in a sudden loss of engine power while driving. Note: This recall replaces Transport Canada recall no. 2023-679. Vehicles that were repaired under that recall don't require this repair.

Summary
Issue: On certain vehicles, the weight sensor for the front passenger seat may not have been manufactured properly. As a result, the passenger-front airbag and knee airbag could deploy in a crash that doesn't require them to. Note: If the weight sensor fails, the SRS warning light would turn on in the instrument panel. Safety Risk: An airbag system that doesn't work properly could increase the risk of injury in a crash. Corrective Actions: Honda will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership for an inspection if the SRS warning light is on. If the SRS warning light is on due to a faulty weight sensor, the weight sensor will be replaced. When repair parts are available, Honda will send you a second letter. They will advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to replace the passenger-front seat weight sensor.
