This vehicle has automatic headlights which turn off and on plus are supposed to automatically dim the headlights when oncoming vehicles approach. They automatic headlight dimming feature not only doesn't work properly, they go to bright (high beam) when cars approach, instead of dimming. I have taken it to a Honda Dealer twice for repair. They said they could not duplicate the issue but admit they have no real test for this problem. This is a serious safety issue which Honda can't seem to bother with.

The automatic high/low beams do not work properly. The do not go to high beam when they are suppose to and they do not dim when they are suppose to. Any reflective device along the road will cause them to either dim or brighten. When an approaching vehicle is coming toward me the lights will not dim like they should and sometimes I will have to do it manually. This is a safety problem not only for myself but also for oncoming vehicles. I have had it to the dealership 5 times, they have replaced the light sensor at the base of the windshield and the camera behind the rearview mirror and have told me that this should resolve the problem but it has not as they continue to malfunction. There are numerous reports on line about the ridgeline having this problem and so far the dealership has not been able to fix it. They know they have the problem but they don't seem concerned about it. I have not had the police or my insurance company look at the problem yet. I can though if requested. There are no warning lights that come on to tell you of this problem; only the flashing headlights of oncoming vehicles to let you know.

The auto high beam function does not work properly, and in fact can be dangerous. With system on it continuously and constantly goes back and forth between low and high beam with no traffic in sight. However, more dangerous it has on two occasions turned high beams on when traffic is almost upon me causing potential safety issue and road rage. I have turned the system off, and I am using manually right now. However, paid for this system, and see many others complaining about the same issue.

Auto dimming headlights do not function as intended. At night the headlights will go from regular to bright and back again with no other vehicles on the road. System appears to be confused by road sign reflections. Also does not always go from bright to dim when encountering oncoming vehicles.

When I activate the auto high beam feature on my Ridgeline, it does not ever work properly. The high beams will go off almost immediately once a road sign reflects on the sensor. This feature is totally unreliable and is actually a safety hazard because of how often it deactivates when on the roadway even though there is no traffic coming in either direction. It rarely reactivates when traveling on the highway.

The automatic high beams randomly come on when cars are approaching and or cars are in front which has resulted in a few very upset drivers in the vehicles that end up getting the high beams in their eyes or rear view mirror.

Automatic high beams on this vehicle are unreliable and constantly flash oncoming traffic. High beams will turn on and off in succession multiple times. The system is unusable and potentially dangerous for oncoming traffic.

The automatic highbeams do not work as intended. They sometimes blind oncoming traffic and other times not switch to high for better driver visibility.

The automatic high beam does not work. When activated it will not turn on the high beams on a dark road with no other lights in view. I had a 2019 Ridgeline that worked fine, so I know how to use the feature.

The automatic high beam headlights do not operate correctly. When in auto mode, on a dark road with no other light sources, they will go to high mode for a second or two and drop back to low beam for no reason at all. they keep doing that at random intervals. They will go from low beam and go to high mode when cars are approaching within 100 yards. pretty sure the other car does not like that. they work fine when by passed by placing them in high mode by pushing turn signal stick forward. it's in the auto mode when they don't act right. i took the '22 to Couer D'Alene Honda and they checked them and said they were working as they were supposed to. this concerns me since i had a '18 Honda ridgeline and they did work fine in auto mode. i feel this is a safety issue for me and others on the road at night.

Purchased a new Honda RTL-E Ridgeline 3 days ago... Traded in a 2017.. Both have auto high beam feature.. The 2022 is erratic, at times fails to operate (engage the high beams even after surpassing the 45 MPH cut in speed. In addition to that, the high beams fail to remain on even when there is no oncoming traffic or fail to disengage etc.. This is not caused by ambient outside light or reflections off road signage, as I know how they worked and worked very well on my 2017.. The defective system create a major safety hazard as they almost always fail to turn off with oncoming traffic.. So drivers are blinded by High Beams and the driver of the Ridgeline expects them to turn off, hesitates expecting them to work before they realize they are not going to turn off... This not only impacts the on coming driver, but could be a good road rage problem, cause an accident and lastly cause the driver to be issued a ticket. if the oncoming vehicle, is coming around a bend and there is a perfect alignment of the two vehicles they must turn off, but they don't, blinding the oncoming driver. They do not work period and are a serious safety hazard.. Honda needs to resolve this ASAP..

Auto high beams consistently fail to turn on or off at appropriate times, rendering them unreliable and unsafe. I was forced to disable them because of several incidents in which they failed to stay on while driving on dark rural roads or failed to turn off with oncoming traffic.

Honda eliminated the dedicated automatic high beam camera and moved the functionality into the shared "multi-purpose" camera that is also used for Honda Sensing features and raised the activation speed. These changes not only ruined the automatic high beam function, but made it dangerous at times. The automatic high beams rarely work in my neighborhood which has zero street lamps and I was told by the dealer that it is supposed to operate that way.

Automatic highbeams do not go on gets dangerous when driving on dark roads

My vehicle has automatic high beam headlights. They do not function properly - they will cycle on and off when there is no traffic ahead or oncoming, but most seriously they often fail to dim when there is oncoming traffic. This issue appears to be endemic with the 2022 Honda Ridgeline, many users report the same.

The automatic high beam system is very erratic. It fluctuates between high and low beam randomly on rural roads when it should be in steady high beam. It also randomly changes to high beam when oncoming vehicles are approaching causing the other driver to be blinded and flash their high beams. Vehicle has been in for service twice and the service center says the system is functioning as designed. I have a 30 minute video available which shows the erratic function as well as the high beam at oncoming traffic if needed. It is more than 3 GB large and exceeds your file limitations.. This is an ongoing problem that occurs whenever the automatic high beam function is activated. I only turn it on to get video documentation of the problem.

The Automatic High Beams do not always turn off when an oncoming vehicle approaches. There seems to be an issue with the way the system operates in general. They do turn on when expected. They stay on when they should be off. They shut off when they should be on. Dealer states that they do not detect any fault codes in the system and can not troubleshoot any further. Dealer loaned me a 2020 CRV that performed as expected under the same driving conditions. There seems to be a lot of complaints on the internet over the past couple of years. Surprised that Honda has not fixed this safety issue. Thanks!
