POWER TRAIN
I AM EXPERIENCING TRANSMISSION SHUDDER BETWEEN 2ND TO 3RD GEAR. WHEN SLOWING TO A STOP THE VEHICLE MAKES A JERKING MOTION. I TOOK MY VEHICLE INTO THE DEALERSHIP TO HAVE COMPUTER FLASH DONE THAT WOULD STOP THE TRANSMISSION SHUDDER. THE PROBLEM IS NOT FIXED AND I'M NOT SURE WHAT TO DO FROM HERE. MY 2006 5 SPEED RIDGELINE SHIFTS FLAWLESSLY WITH OVER 250K MILES NOT SO MUCH THE 2017 6 SPEED WITH 44K. HONDA MAKES GOOD ENGINES BUT NOT TRANSMISSIONS.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
EMISSION SYSTEM PROBLEM LIGHT CAME ON AT ABOUT 50,500 MILES. TOOK IT TO THE HONDA DEALERSHIP I PURCHASED THE TRUCK FROM AND THEY TOLD ME IT WAS THE FUEL INJECTORS. THE ONLY THING I NOTICED BEFORE THE LIGHT CAME ON WAS THE RPM WOULD 'BOUNCE' SLIGHTLY WHILE AT AROUND 35 MPH AND AROUND 47MPH. IT WOULD OCCUR WHILE MAINTAINING THE SPEED OR GOING UP ANY INCLINE, BUT WOULD STOP IF I ACCELERATED AND MAINTAINED A HIGHER SPEED

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
"EMISSIONS SYSTEM PROBLEM" LIGHT CAME ON AROUND 60K MILES. SERVICE TECH SAID TO IGNORE IT IF IT GOES AWAY. IT DID, THEN IT CAME BACK ON REPEATEDLY OVER S SPAN OF MONTHS. EVENTUALLY, VEHICLE STARTED TO RUN POORLY, HESITATING ON ACCELERATION. HONDA SERVICE DIAGNOSED AS FUEL INJECTORS FAILING, PROBLEM REQUIRES TOTAL REPLACEMENT OF FUEL INJECTORS. WIFE'S 2017 PILOT HAS SAME PROBLEM, BROTHER'S 2017 PILOT HAD SAME PROBLEM. CONTACTED HONDA, THEY DECLINED TO STAND BEHIND EITHER, AS THE VEHICLES ARE PAST WARRANTY ON MILEAGE.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
EMISSIONS LIGHT CAME ON AT 57000 MILES AND CONTINUED TO GO ON AND OFF UNTIL 1-30-2020 WHEN AT 69000 MILES EVERY LIGHT CAME ON AND WENT IN TO SAFE MODE ALMOST CAUSING ANOTHER VEHICLE TO ALMOST REAREND ME. TOOK IT TO A LOCAL HONDA DEALER AND THEY DETERMINED THAT THE FUEL INJECTORS WERE BAD. THEY SAID IT WAS A COMMON PROBLEM KNOWN TO HONDA SINCE THEY HAD REDESIGNED THE REPLACEMENT PARTS. END RESULT: $1610.00. IF THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM IT SHOULD BE RECALLED IMO.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
MY HONDA RIDGELINE IS KEPT OUTSIDE ALL THE TIME. WE RECENTLY HAD A SEVERAL DAYS OF RAIN FOLLOWED BY TEMPERATURES DROPPING INTO THE 20'S. WHEN I WENT TO THE GAS STATION A COUPLE DAYS AGO, I WAS UNABLE TO GET THE FLAP THAT TAKES THE PLACE OF A GAS CAP TO PUSH OPEN. IT WAS FROZEN SHUT SOLIDLY EVEN THOUGH THERE WAS NO SIGN OF WATER ON THE OUTSIDE THE WEATHER FINALLY GOT ABOVE FREEZING TODAY AND I MANAGE TO BREAK THE ICE BEHIND THE FILLER FLAP AND GOT THE PICTURE BELOW. AT HOME THIS WAS AN INCONVENIENCE. ON A LONG ROAD TRIP IT COULD HAVE BEEN A BIG PROBLEM. I PRESUME THIS ALSO MEANS THAT EVERY TIME IT RAINS I'M GETTING WATER IN THE GAS TANK. I HAD NO IDEA .

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
WHILE BACKING UP, THE REAR CAMERA WOULD GO BLACK, OFTEN WHEN THE TRUCK BUMPED OVER THE ENTRANCE TO THE STREET. NOW THE CAMERA QUIT COMPLETELY. I FOUND BROKEN WIRES AT A PINCH POINT IN THE LOWER LEFT TAILGATE HINGE. A MUSHROOM HEAT CLAMP TO SECURE THE CABLE TO THE BODY APPEARED DAMAGED, POSSIBLY DUE TO A WIRING INSPECTION FROM A PREVIOUS RECALL?

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
THIS VEHICLE COMES EQUIPPED WITH A CAPLESS FILL DOOR. UPON TRYING TO FILL UP WITH GAS, I FOUND MYSELF UNABLE TO INSERT THE NOZZLE FOR FILLING. AFTER FURTHER EFFORT, THE FIRST FUEL FLAP BROKE. AFTER REMOVING THE BROKEN FLAP, I FOUND THE FUEL FILL NECK FILLED ENTIRELY WITH ICE, THUS PREVENTING INWARD MOVEMENT OF THE FLAP. I WAS UNABLE TO FILL THE VEHICLE UP WITH FUEL AS A RESULT. VEHICLE IS A 2017 WITH 50,000 MILES.

POWER TRAIN
THE TRUCK VIBRATES, SHUDDERS, AND RUMBLE WHEN SPEED HITS 44, 66, 68, 70, 72 MPH UPON LIGHT ACCELERATION/PUSH OF THE PEDAL. THE EXPERIENCE IS SIMILAR OR EXACTLY LIKE DRIVING OVER THE EMERGENCY RUMBLE STRIP ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, BUT ONLY YOU'RE NOT. THE DEALERSHIP REFUSED TO ADMIT THE PROBLEM NOR FIX THE PROBLEM EVEN AFTER THE MECHANIC WITNESSED THE VIBRATION AND SHUDERRING IN THE TEST DRIVE.

VISIBILITY/WIPER
VEHICLE HAS UNDER 24,000 MILES ON IT AND HAS NEVER BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT. UNDER NORMAL DRIVING CONDITIONS, THE REAR VIEW MIRROR VIBRATES TO THE POINT OF DISTORTING THE VISION / VIEW FROM THE MIRROR. THIS HAPPENS WHEN DRIVING AT LOW SPEEDS ON PAVED CITY STREETS AND AT HIGHER SPEEDS ON PAVED HIGHWAYS. THE PROBLEM SEEMS TO CROP UP MOSTLY WHEN IT IS HOT OUTSIDE, BUT THE VEHICLE IS IN FLORIDA WHERE HIGH OUTSIDE TEMPS ARE COMMON AND OFTEN YEAR ROUND. OTHER HONDA RIDGELINE OWNERS HAVE REPORTED THIS ISSUE VIA ONLINE CHAT GROUPS / FORUMS. I HAVE REPORTED THE ISSUE TO HONDA USA BUT NEVER GOT A RESPONSE OR CALL BACK. AT THE LEAST, THIS IS AN ANNOYANCE THAT SHOULD BE ADDRESSED BY HONDA. AT WORST, IT PRESENTS A SERIOUS VISIBILITY / SAFETY ISSUE.
