Purchased 2020 honda pilot 12/29/2019 off the dealer display floor. Pilot has less than 1000 miles. While in motion on the city streets and highway, a cracking sound will occur from the dash board and the speedometer and the audio information screen will black out unable to gage anything. Still in motion the screens will upload, but the screens will blackout again. This will happen for several minutes at a time.…

With just under 5000 miles on my 2020 pilot, the infotainment system froze and would not shut off when the car was turned off. I lost access to the rear camera, gps, cross traffic alert, radio, hands-free phone and other features. I was also afraid that the screen staying on all night would drain my battery. I took it to the dealership the next day and they fixed the problem. However, i don't think that a car this…

We we're driving down the interstate and the instrument panel as well as the infotainment center went black/completely out. We could not tell our speed nor any other vehicle data as the instrument pane was dead. While the infotainment center going out is bad, having no instrument panel is very dangerous and a major safety concern.

The problem usually starts with a loud crackling noise through the speakers, even when the radio is turned off. The dash, including speedometer, will shut off leaving a black screen which means i have no idea how fast i'm driving. The center console, including satellite navigation and radio, also…

We've had 3 hondas and have been very loyal honda fans for, claiming to never buy another brand. We bought our pilot brand new and loved it. We're at 3700 miles and having major electrical issues. The speakers crackle and pop loudly constantly, with the audio on or off so there's no way to get a break from it. The car will think there's going to be a collision when there's nothing in front of it. Now today, my…

Screen goes black & voice controls stop during navigation use so we get lost. Back-up/parking sensors stop working. Loud noise like sand…
