2003 Honda Pilot EX review from North America
"Very poor quality for a Honda"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Transmission went out at less than 100,000 miles even though it had been serviced regularly and the recall had been done on the transmission. A $2600 fix which I am not presently able to pay.
General comments?
If you buy a Pilot, plan on selling it before the powertrain warranty runs out.
