Ridgeline 4WD 6-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 28,500 miles
Moments after dropping my son off at school returning back home, I noticed smoke coming from the far right passenger side vent. I pulled over, turned the vehicle off, lifted the hood -saw nothing- closed the hood, went to passenger side, looked in ac vent noticing flame which then rapidly spread through the dash board engulfing the truck. Fire dept. Came and extinguished the flames. I really enjoyed the truck but feel there is some kind of defect in the manufacturing process.
