    We were at a complete stop waiting to turn into our child's school parking lot. We were rear ended by a vehicle traveling at least 40 mph, possibly faster, who made no attempt to stop. We were pushed into oncoming traffic, and struck a second vehicle. When we came to rest, both the driver's and front passenger seats were in a full recline position, and would have caused serious injury to our child had she been in…

    After buying our 2006 honda pilot used, within 8 months the driver's side front seat back cover popped off while sitting in the garage. We noted that the area of the cover that holds the small clips had been previously fixed with wire. We contacted the local honda dealership and ordered a new cover (part number 81127-s9v-a21zc) and clips (part number 91566-sp0-003). We had them installed by the dealer, but six days…

    The drivers-side seatback panel constantly falls off. There are two hooks at the top and two fender-plug style clips at the bottom that are supposed to snap the panel into place, but these plugs continually pop out of the pylons on the panel itself and the panel is no longer secured to the seat. I have had several passengers that found the panel dropping onto their laps or toes while driving. I finally gave up on…

    We are original owners of this 2006 pilot ex-l and are experiencing dangerously hot conditions with the drivers seat. On high setting it is unbearable and seems much hotter on the left side base portion. On low setting it is much hotter than normal also. I have noticed a slight electrical smell and am very concerned. Please advise. *tr

    While driving the vehicle at approximately 40mph, the plastic support clips on the driver's seat back panel dislodged and the seat panel fell off completely. I tried to reattach the panel but that failed. I contacted the dealer (concerning this and another issue) and after being told that it was my fault, the dealer offered to replace the back panel as a "good will" gesture. The panel was replaced (new). I noticed…

    Tl* the contact owns a 2006 honda pilot. The contact was driving approximately 45 mph when the plastic support clips dislodged from the front driver's seat back panel and resulted in the panel becoming partially detached. The failure would occur whenever the vehicle was in motion. The vehicle was taken to an authorized dealer where the support clips were replaced. Most recently, the similar failure recurred and the…
