Buying a used 2023 Honda Pilot? Check these 5 recalls first

5 NHTSA recalls · 151 owner complaints on file

The 2023 Honda Pilot has 5 recalls in this group. Fuel filler pipe leakage is the critical item listed, accompanied by steering gearbox lockup, a loose driver's seat frame, engine stalling, and brake pedal pin movement. These span fuel containment and major vehicle controls. Its 149 owner complaints are unverified reports; seat belts lead with 37, followed by electrical system with 28, unknown or other with 23, and forward collision avoidance with 20. Seat belt history merits a separate inquiry.

Before you buy

1. Get the 17-character VIN from the seller and run it at nhtsa.gov/recalls. It shows which recalls are still unrepaired on that exact car.
2. Verify fuel filler pipe and engine stalling recall repairs by VIN.
3. Request steering gearbox, driver's seat frame, and brake pedal pin recall records.
4. Check seat belt operation; ask about electrical faults and collision avoidance warnings.
5. Open recalls are repaired free at any Honda dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
