You can just slightly pull up on windshield wipers and they will give you space to lift them up. My crv is the same way, it’s not a defect.

Read the manual, the windshield wipers are designed that way. There’s a way to place them in maintenance mode.

Add water leaks from the roof and transmission issues. A damn nightmare. First year production as well. Never buy first year production

Agreed. It’s best not to buy a preproduction car because you will find quality issues. It’s best to wait for a few months

Based on long term reviews and comparing then with Hondas I've driven in Southeast Asia (Philippines herr) it seems that Japanese made units are miles ahead in quality. I have not owned a Thailand built unit, but placed an order for the CR-V and awaiting delivery.

I do have a problem with my rear passenger side window trim coming off, on the driver's side. I have to continuously push it back on after getting out the car to keep it from completely coming off. Going to the dealer on Monday to have it looked at.

Just an update. I took my Pilot to a local Honda dealership. I had showed them what was going on and they said they will replace the window trim free of charge. Should be getting a call this week to come in to get it replaced.

Aside from the wipers which you already know by now it's not a defect the rest is pretty sad. Honda seems to be slipping lately. I mean for a 50k+ car one would expect the basics to be ok. On the fother hand it seems that all manufacturers have issues and the whole mantra of "Toyota and Hondas are the best" is obsolete. The badge is not what it used to be.Hope you got it fixed and will prove you wrong (reliability wise) down the road an will last years without major repairs

I don't know what kind of vehicles some of you people were driving. The windshield wiper issue is not a defect. My 2000 Acura 3.2 TL and 2007 Honda Ridgeline wipers rest the sameway like Pilot. You have to turn key to On turn wiper on until they raise up on windshield. Turn key to off. Then you can change blades or pull the forward to clean windshield. When finish put the back on windshield turn wiper control to off. Then turn key to On position the wipers will go back to rest position. The new Pilot just slightly different process. But thats not a design flaw. The other concerns definitely quality issues. Unknown if done at factory or after dealer got it.

As said my 2000 Acura 3.2 TL was designed just like this. I still have that car. It's in the Owners Manual. All 2nd Generation Acura 3.2 TL designed that way. We have 1st Generation 2006-2014 Honda Ridgeline its the same exact way on every one. It's in Owners Manual how to turn on wipers let them raise turn-off key. Then you can change blades or clean windshield. I not sure if previous Pilot Ridgeline sameway but that's not defect but designed that way.

The windshield wipers not lifting up is not a defect. Volvo does the same thing, you need to put your wipers in service mode to change them. It says this in the manual as well. I just traded my 17 Volvo for a 23 Pilot TrailSport.
