Overview & Reviews

The 2011 Honda Pilot returns mostly unchanged from last year. Navigation is now available on the EX-L trim level and a rear entertainment system is now included on the Touring model.

• Pleasant ride, decently roomy third-row seat, smooth V6, clever interior storage features, perfect crash test scores.

• Poor braking performance, sluggish acceleration, unremarkable fuel economy, button-heavy center stack.

  2011 Pilot: A nice upgrade - 2011 Honda Pilot
  By AJA - July 27 - 12:41 pm

  Had this a month now (EX-L w/NAV) and am enjoying it. Yes, there are a lot of buttons on the dash, but you have a CD changer, iPod connection, XM satellite, & AM/FM radio, so I would expect that. Fortunately, these controls are easily worked with controls on the steering wheel! Built in Bluetooth is a nice feature as is the back-up camera mounted over the lic. plate. Leather seats are comfortable and the 8-way drivers side seat is also nice. There is an issue with the moonroof not closing automatically, but I dont mind holding the button for it to close until they have a fix for it. Gas mileage is not great thus far, but I didnt expect it to be the same as my CR-V. Overall, very happy.

  By Abell - July 10 - 4:55 pm

  I felt regret and disappointed to get this pilot.I just got for a week and found out the defect. The body connected with a piece of plastic every joint is getting loose.I am wondering how a $40,000 pilot looks like a toy?

  2011 Pilot Sunroof Problems - 2011 Honda Pilot
  By Matt - July 6 - 10:35 pm

  2011 Honda Pilots have sunroof problems for which Honda does not have a fix. Purchased mine a month and a half ago, and they still cant fix it! Im getting very frustrated, because its a known issue according to the dealership. Honda supposedly issued a "fix", which was to "reset" the sunroof, but this didnt work so they recanted the fix. Honda, Ive been a lifelong customer, but Im getting frustrated that I cant use the sunroof I paid $1.5K+for! Fix this soon or lose a customer and all of my referrals. Other than the sunroof, a very good car. Braking distance is a bit too long for me.

  Cant Believe I Bought a Honda - 2011 Honda Pilot
  By Mercedes Lover - July 2 - 10:16 pm

  I love my Mercedes. When I convinced my wife to lease a ml350, I thought she would love it. I was wrong. She ended up buying the pilot touring edition last month. We now fight over driving it. While the fuel mileage is extremely disappointing, we just came back from a trip and got almost 22 mpg. Not great, but better than expected. The entire family loves taking this car on trips. The technology (bluetooth, nav, rear entertainment) is far Superior to my 2010 Mercedes e-class and her ml. The entire build quality rivals the other cars we looked at including those priced well above the Honda. This is a great SUV at a price that wont squeeze your wallet.

  Love my 2011 Pilot - 2011 Honda Pilot
  By Mac1 - June 17 - 1:24 pm

  I traded in my 2005 pilot for the 2011 and I am very happy with my choice. This vehicle is totally redesigned from the 05. roomier and more comfort. My only complaint is the gas mileage is AWFUL! I find myself at the gas station every 2-3 days! I purchased the top of the line model w/rear dvd and nav. My family loves it. This is our 6th honda purchase. We also have the 08 CR-V. When something is good you stick with it and Hondas are GREAT. Highly recommend this vehicle.

  Love it so far! - 2011 Honda Pilot
  By rkhamilton920 - May 24 - 1:11 pm

  Picked it up over the weekend. Great driving position - really wide and roomy. Didnt note a problem with sunroof. All around my wife and I are pleased. Mileage is not going to be great - but I knew that going in to the purchase. Going to take awhile to fully learn about functions and features for the Electronics/Navigation Systems.

  LOTS OF ROOM - 2011 Honda Pilot
  By ROCHELLE BABERS - December 18 - 3:40 am

  I purchased my Honda from Tustin DCH Acura. I have had my vehicle for one month but only had the pleasure of driving it for two and a half weeks because this dealership had my vehicle for over 10 days after purchasing it for repairs. They are not very good at returning calls and still arent. They are very nice people but they dont return calls especially after you purchase. When I was trying to purchase the truck they return every call but after I gave them my $19,500 cashiers check I cant get them to return my calls without going through management. I will update my review if I can after driving for a while to tell if gas mileage is good and other things about the vehicle. EDMUNDS IS AWESOME, VERY HELPFUL AND EXCELLENT CUSTOMER SERVICE. THANK YOU SYDNEY WIGGLESWORTH AND LARRY PATTERSON. YOU TWO WERE VERY HELFUL, NICE, POLITE, AND RETUENED MY CALLS/EMAILS. I WILL USE EDMUNDS AGAIN. AND HAVE TOLD MANY ABOUT YOU. THANK YOU. R. BABERS
