    Headlights

    Honda pilot headlights do not provide sufficient light to safely operate the vehicle. Only a few feet in front of vehicle are illuminated, and a sharp cut-off line between light and darkness is clearly visible at a distance that is not far enough to safely drive at night.*ak

    Headlights

    Headlights on the new honda pilot are weak and fail to adequately illuminate the road ahead. It's the difference between using a spotlight vs a floodlight. The high beams when in use just seem to disappear into the night. You can see but the light is not bright enough in my opinion. I think the high beams should be more like a spotlight in lighting up the road ahead. I think it is a definite design flaw.
