Some Honda Pilot owners report experiencing transmission jerking issues even after a fluid flush, which can be attributed to factors such as worn-out transmission components, low or contaminated fluid, or software problems within the control module. If jerking persists, especially in vehicles with a 9-speed transmission that exhibit hard shifts, it may indicate a more serious underlying issue, potentially requiring torque converter replacement if juddering occurs. Additionally, Honda may recommend another transmission flush or the replacement of the torque converter or entire transmission if the problem reoccurs after a certain mileage. Promptly addressing these transmission issues is crucial to prevent further damage and ensure the smooth operation of the Honda Pilot.
