Ridgeline 6-cyl

  • 7,000 miles
After sitting for two hours, in wet slushy conditions came out to start the car, dash lights (warning icons) flashing at very high rate of speed. Dome lights barely on very dim light car had a extreme power draw (short). Would not start and could not get anything to work but door locks from inside of the vehicle, fob would not do anything. Honda roadside called and vehicle towed to david hobbs Honda. When removed from the tow truck vehicle started and worked as it should, dealer found nothing wrong, kept it and second day and found nothing wrong and had me pick it back up. Was told when it happens again call us. Not happy with unreliable 2017 Honda Ridgeline!!!! I feel it is likely the same electrical draw caused by your recall for under truck bed electrical harness that I had to inform dealer about, but was told nothing can be done until Honda sends me a recall letter and they are not allowed to contact Honda to report the condition. I think by VIN is not included in your recall, but believe its only because others have not reported this type if issue yet! vehicle sitting in parking lot, when I attempted to start and that is when issue came to be. I have about 7000 miles on it now.

The AWD harness that hooks up to the differential does not seal properly and lets in water. The water shorts out the electrical system and shuts down anti-lock brakes, vsa, blind spot monitoring and cross traffic, blind spot detection. The vehicle is not safe to operate at this point and may cause injury.

TPMS failure light immediately came on driving from the dealership. Took it back and and as leaving it came on again. Immediately went back for fix and upon nearing home 25 miles from dealer it came on again. Had to take it back for a loaner so they could do a 24 hour diagnosis. Needed to order rear sub harness pn 32114-TG7-A00. Waited 2 weeks. Had the harness installed and approximately 45 miles later the TPMS illuminated again. This is a hard fault that stays on until dealer resets. Light illuminates each time while driving on city street or highway while in fwd motion.
