The 2004 Honda Pilot: before you buy
CarmaCars rents cars and does not sell the 2004 Honda Pilot; this page helps you judge it before you buy one elsewhere. Buying the 2004 Honda Pilot is a big decision; here is the information we have.
What to check on the Pilot
NHTSA has 544 owner complaints on file, mostly about power train, seats and air bags. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car.
The figures, translated
The 3.5L 6-cylinder does the work, through a 5-speed automatic. It runs on regular gas. All-wheel drive helps when pulling away on snow; braking and steering still depend on the tires.
Its combined rating is 13.8 L/100 km, which means roughly 41 litres for 300 km. The fuel for 100 km comes to about $21.39 at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$3,950 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.
Space, size and seats
Being an SUV, it handles luggage, strollers and sports gear well.
When the Pilot makes sense
It suits winter trips and weekends with more gear than people. It uses more fuel than most, so it suits shorter trips or people who need its size.
Rent it for a week first
Rent it, live with it for a week, and decide with real experience. Rent the Pilot for a week and see how it fits your life. A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel.
What it costs to run
Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel. The EPA estimates US$3,950 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices.
Year and trim
If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history. Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires.
