Every time I take off I have a thump or clunk kind of sound coming from my
right front tire area. It only does it when i first take of after staring the car. I've
had my Pilot Elite for about 5 months. Only has 6k miles on it. Any one else

So dealership just called and said that this clunk noise is normal for new pilots. Something about the motor mount. Seems odd for a $50k vehicle to make this noise but they say its normal.

I have the same problem on my 2020 ex awd. I can feel the clunk noise in the brake or gas pedal. I think it's coming from the mid- rear of the car. It only happens after i start my car and drive off within 50 feet. After that it doesn't make that noise until the meet time i stop/start the car

I have a 2021 Pilot and it has the start stop clunking noise but it sounds like its under the dash. I even cleaned out the glove box thinking something was rolling around. I'm taking it back. I just traded in my 2019 CRV for it and it had only 10K miles. I did not want the CRV because of the oil dilution problem and smell of oil in the cabin. Now this. I am getting concerned about Honda's reputation now.

I also have a 2021 Honda Pilot and it has been in service twice and they say they can't duplicate the sound. GIVE ME A BREAK!!! I am growing frustrated with a $50K car having these issues and they are unable to fix it. What the heck is going on with Honda's lately?
