My 2016 honda pilot have been popping up a 'keyless start system problem' message . It happened about 3 weeks ago. It's sometimes will go away and come back the next day. It's on and off. When this issue occurs the 'walk away auto lock ' also didn't work too. I hope honda to resolve this issue by recalling the model.

This car has issues with the auto idle restarting. Approximately 8 times over the last 1.5 years the car does not restart after its idle. It has to be put into park, engage the brake and try to restart. This takes multiple tries to get the car's engine to start again. It's very dangerous. 7/8 times i was at a stop sign or stop light, but once i was in stop and go traffic with an 18 wheeler behind me when the engine…

The keyless start system light has been on for several months. We brought the car to the honda dealer and they replaced the key fob. The light went away for a little while, but returned. Once in a while it goes away, but it always returns for no reason.

Dash board lights were flickering. This evening tried again…

On my backup camera, it said i still had room to go back but that is because the window protrudes more than the backup camera. I am attaching photos here and…

The first incident was on oct 7, 2018. We were at a stop light with the engine idle option enabled. When the light turned green and the brake was released, the vehicle should have started back up, but instead, it stalled. After the 2nd time it occurred, we started to disable the engine idle feature as soon as we start the car. We have forgotten a few times and the vehicle stalling has happened at least 3 additional…
