Recalls and complaints

There are 5 NHTSA recall campaigns on file; a dealer can check by the VIN whether each was done. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent.

What the specs mean

The 3.5L 6-cylinder does the work, through a 9-speed automatic. It runs on regular gas. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.

For 300 km of mixed driving, expect about 31 litres, from its 10.4 L/100 km rating. That works out to about $16.12 per 100 km at our price setting. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$2,900 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.

The Pilot in everyday use

Being a compact SUV, it handles luggage, strollers and sports gear well.

Who it is for

It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else. It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month.

A longer test drive

A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. If it is in our fleet, rent it; if not, a similar car gives you a feel for the class. Load it with your things and park it where you park; then decide.

Running costs

A 1,000 km month costs roughly $161.20 at our price setting. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary.

Picking a year and a trim

Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary. A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it. Compare the EX-L with the other trims of the same year before you decide.
