What owners wrote
Was pulling into a parking spot in a parking garage going slow and the honda pilot accelerated on its own, the rpms went up and slammed into the cement wall in the garage in less 5 seconds. The airbag deployed and damage to the front of the car.
On three separate occasions over a two-day period, the vehicle momentarily brake hard when very light pressure was applied to the brake pedal. The vsa (vehicle stability assist) warning light came on when this occurred but did not stay illuminated after the vehicle was shut off and restarted. These incidents occurred december 23rd and 24th, 2013, and the temperature was approximately 20-30 degrees. No injuries occurred, but thankfully no other vehicles were behind us when it happened.
