2025 Honda Pilot recalls

My 2025 Honda Pilot TrailSport has lost electric power steering assist twice. First failure, about 6,000 miles: the vehicle lost power steering while driving on pavement in normal road use, with no water or off-road driving involved. The Honda dealer replaced the steering rack under warranty. Second failure, about 24,000 miles: a few days after the vehicle was driven through shallow puddles on a trail at Broken Bow Lake, OK (about 5 inches deep, below the wheel rims, about 5 mph), it lost power steering assist while being driven to work on public roads in Lawton, OK. The dealer attributed the failure to water and mud entering the power steering electrical connector/wiring and denied warranty

My car would rev without increasing speed and would jerk with braking and acceleration. The honda technician diagnosed a transmission problem called a slip flare and the transmission is being replaced under warranty at 28k miles. I do not believe this caused a safety issue because I caught it early but it took the dealership a couple days to reproduce the issue. There were no warning lights or error codes alerting an issue.

While driving to work my back passenger tire bumped a shallow pothole. After the bump, several warnings came on the screen about ABS, Power Steering, automatic bright headlight control and a couple of others. The power steering was completely out. I turned my car off and restarted my car. This restored the power steering, but there was a lane assist error and one other error. I turned around to head home and the sensors went away as if they were reset. When the vehicle was taken to the dealer it did not display that any alerts had been registered on the car and they were not able to duplicate the problem after driving the car for 50 miles. I took the car back home after getting the tires ali

My 2025 Honda Pilot Elite has a persistent creaking/rubbing noise from the steering wheel area when turning at low speeds. This has been brought to Richfield Bloomington Honda twice with no resolution. Visit 1 (9/28/2026): Dealer replaced the clock spring under warranty. Noise returned within days. Visit 2 (10/16/2026, 15,158 miles): Dealer compared vehicle to 3 other Pilots, stated they all make the same noise, and closed the repair order as ‘operating as designed’ with no safety concerns found. Honda has not provided a fix. Multiple other 2025 Pilot owners have filed identical NHTSA complaints (ODI #11765610, #11725404, #11750240) with the same outcome — clock spring replaced, noise persis

There is a constant clicking noise when turning the steering wheel which seems to come from the clock spring. I have verified this same issue on two other 2025 models, and although it does not currently affect vehicle safety, it could potentially do so in the future.
