Our safety philosophy takes shape in the advanced safety features of all Honda vehicles.
5-Star Safety
The Pilot puts that philosophy in action, and the proof is in a 5-star rating the vehicle earned in frontal- and side-impact testing by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA).*
Confidence on the Road
The
anti-lock braking system (ABS) helps the driver retain steering control when braking hard, while
Vehicle Stability Assist™ (VSA®) with traction control helps give the driver more control if wheel slippage is detected. Plus, Pilot vehicles with the navigation system feature a
standard rearview camera that helps you avoid obstacles behind you.
Strong Structure
Along with
side-impact door beams and
front and rear crush zones, the Pilot was built with a
rigid steel body to lessen intrusion into the passenger cabin. This reinforced body structure is designed to target the highest safety ratings for occupant protection.
Peace of Mind
Sometimes an accident just cannot be avoided, so safety features in the Pilot can help provide superior protection.
Seat belts with pretensioners,
three-row side curtain airbags and dual-stage,
dual-threshold front airbags (SRS) are all standard.
”Top Safety Pick”
With all these advanced safety features, it comes as no surprise that the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety has recognized the Honda Pilot as a 2008 "Top Safety Pick."
