2019 HONDA PILOT — Complaint #1849352
Open-data reference.
NHTSA Complaint about POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION:INTERNAL:GEARS filed October 24, 2022
NHTSA complaint #1849352 (ODI reference 11490551) concerns a 2019 HONDA PILOT and was filed on October 24, 2022. The owner reports the failure occurred on October 24, 2022. The vehicle had 70,000 miles on the odometer at the time of the incident. The report was geocoded to Virginia based on the filer's self-reported location. The affected component is categorized as power train:automatic transmission:internal:gears, one of NHTSA's standardized taxonomy codes used to group defect patterns across make, model, and year.
The filer flagged the following severity indicators: crash: no, fire: no, injuries: 0, fatalities: 0. No crash, fire, or fatality was associated with this report, which places it in the early-warning stream rather than the priority-review stream. No VIN was supplied by the filer, so this complaint contributes to model-year trend data but cannot be tied to a specific vehicle.
Individual complaints are consumer-submitted and unverified by NHTSA engineers — the agency's role at this stage is to collect, index, and make them searchable. What matters for federal action is the pattern: when many owners of the same HONDA PILOT cohort independently describe similar power train:automatic transmission:internal:gears failures, defect investigators have grounds to open a PE and request manufacturer data. Related filings for the same vehicle and component appear below, and the detail page for the full 2019 HONDA PILOT shows the complete component-level complaint distribution alongside any active investigations or recalls.
