  VISIBILITY:DEFROSTER/DEFOGGER/HVAC SYSTEM

  THE HEATER / AC STOPPED WORKING ON MY 08 RTS HONDA RIDGELINE. THERE WERE NO EVENTS THAT LEAD UP TO THE FAILURE. THE DEALERS SERVICE DEPARTMENT STATED THAT HEATER WIRE HARNESS OVERHEATED AND BURNED UP FOR AN UNKNOWN REASON. THEY ARE HAVING TO ORDER THE REPLACEMENT PARTS, BUT I AM CONCERNED WHETHER THIS IS A FIRE HAZARD. *TR

  STRUCTURE

  TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 HONDA RIDGELINE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE LOWER TAILGATE WOULD NOT OPEN PROPERLY. HE TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER AND THEY STATED THAT THE CABLES CONNECTING TO THE TAILGATE BECAME LOOSE, WHICH CAUSED THE COMPONENT TO FAIL. THE DEALER TIGHTENED THE CABLES, BUT THE FAILURE IMMEDIATELY RECURRED. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGES WERE 7,000.
