When stopped at a busy intersection on a city street, the automatic stop-idle function did not restart and my car stalled when the light turned green. Multiple warning lights flashed at attempts to restart vehicle. I was unable to restart the car for approximately 10 minutes, causing a significant safety issue, as I had 3 children in the car on the way to school.

'keyless start system problem' appear after 40,xxx mileage. The honda dealer is just guessing right now they replace my battery but after a day the same error reappear. There is definitely a manufacture defect as there so many issues regarding this if you google it.

I've been having issues with my car stalling when I try to drive after being stopped at a red light. It doesn't happen every time but at random times. I had this issue back in february 2018 and took it to my local honda dealer in jacksonville and they hadn't seen the issue before.

I am getting a "keyless start problem" error on my dash but my car is working fine. I have already replaced fob batteries and reset system by disconnecting battery. From my research online, this has been a big issue for honda pilots.

It surges when coming to an intersection going 15 MPH with foot off gas and firmly on the brakes. It has surged several times out into the intersections. Service bulletin 16-008 covers over 50,000 honda pilots but the dealer tells me my pilot is just short of the listed VIN numbers.
