Discuss any additional needs with
your trailer sales or rental agency,
and make sure all equipment is
properly installed and maintained.
Since local requirements may vary,
check with appropriate state
authorities to be sure that your
equipment will meet all regulations
in the areas where you plan to tow.
Always use safety chains when you
tow a trailer. Make sure the chains
are secured to the trailer and hitch,
and that they cross under the tongue
so they can catch the trailer if it
becomes unhitched. Leave enough
slack to allow the trailer to turn
corners easily, but to do not let the
chains drag on the ground.
This device is recommended if your
trailer tends to sway. Your trailer
maker can tell you what kind of sway
control you need and how to install it.
Towing generally requires a variety
of supplemental equipment. To
ensure the best quality, we
recommend that you purchase
Honda equipment whenever possible.
Your dealer offers a trailer package
that includes a hitch, a ball mount, a
wiring harness, a transmission fluid
cooler, and a heavy-duty power
steering fluid cooler.
We strongly recommend that you
have your Honda dealer install a
genuine Honda hitch and the
required fluid coolers. Using non-
Honda equipment may result in
serious damage to your vehicle.
A weight distributing hitch is not
recommended for use with your Pilot
as an improperly adjusted weight
distributing hitch may reduce
handling stability and braking
performance.
To help prevent overheating, a
heavy-duty transmission fluid cooler
and a heavy-duty power steering
fluid cooler are required for trailer
towing. These coolers are available
only from your Honda dealer.
