Common problems and easy repairs on a 2009 Pilot

The 2009 Honda Pilot Touring is somewhat difficult to maintain. The fog light will require its entire housing to be removed for access to its bulb, which won’t allow for reliable changes. The same goes for the engine air filter, whose housing will require multiple bolts to be removed before the filter itself can be accessed. Changing a flat tire could be a problem on account of the precarious location of the spare underneath the vehicle that will expose it to the elements.

However, the 2009 Honda Pilot Touring has many high points. The remainder of the headlights have easy access by simply reaching behind their bulb housing, allowing for reliable bulb changes whenever necessary. The tail lights are all located in a single housing whose fasteners are easy to access and remove. Electrical troubleshooting shouldn’t be a problem on account of the quick access to the multiple fuse boxes.
