• Recall 2017009 [Canada]: Airbag
  On certain vehicles, long-term exposure to high absolute humidity and temperature, combined with high temperature cycling, could eventually degrade the propellant contained in the passenger frontal airbag inflator. This could cause the airbag to deploy with more force than normal. As a result, if the vehicle were involved in a collision that warrants airbag deployment, fragments could be propelled toward vehicle occupants, and the airbag assembly could be damaged, preventing proper function. These issues could increase the risk of injury. Correction: dealers will replace the passenger frontal airbag inflator. Note: canadian climate results in the propellant degrading slowly. The recall is being conducted as a precaution to address future risk, and is expected to replace airbag inflators before their function would be affected.

• Recall 2016046 [Canada]: Airbag
  On certain vehicles, the driver frontal airbag inflator could produce excessive internal pressure during airbag deployment. Increased pressure may cause the inflator to rupture, which could allow fragments to be propelled toward vehicle occupants, increasing the risk of injury. This could also damage the airbag module, which could prevent proper deployment. Failure of the airbag to fully deploy during a crash (where deployment is warranted) could increase the risk of personal injury to the seat occupant. Correction: dealers will inspect/replace the driver's frontal airbag inflator. Note: honda canada has created a special airbag inflator hotline for immediate assistance.

Tl* the contact owns a 2007 honda ridgeline. The contact stated while stationary, all four doors failed to unlock as needed. The vehicle was not taken to a dealer nor independent mechanic. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was informed of the failure and suggested that the vehicle be taken to an authorized dealer for service. The failure mileage was approximately 204,711.

Engine developed a sudden misfire in #4 cylinder for about 20 seconds, then cleared. Subsequently, had large white clouds of coolant and burned oil coming from tailpipe while driving on city streets. After turning engine off and letting it cool, noticed coolant level low in reservoir, low oil level on dipstick. Low compression on #4 cyl. And burned oil on #4 spark plug. If allowed to continue running, coolant would be consumed, resulting in overheating and engine seizing while driving.

While i was driving my 2007 honda ridgeline the support which cradles the fuel tank broke apart from the rear part of the frame (by the suspension, just to the inside of the rear left wheel) and was dragging on the road. I was able to drive the vehicle to my mechanic (1 mile away). When this occurred, i was driving on a paved road with a 35-mph speed limit. My mechanic put the vehicle on a lift and showed me the damage. The rear part of the frame rusted/corroded to the point where it is barely in one piece. The vehicle is not able to be repaired and my mechanic would not allow me to drive the vehicle home (2 miles) because he was concerned that the rear part of the frame would completely break, which would cause the rear suspension to collapse. He was also concerned that the fuel tank might fall of the vehicle. I would not expect any vehicle, especially not a honda, to fall apart like this after only twelve or thirteen years. The vehicle only had about 136,000 miles on the odometer. The vehicle has a clean title and the carfax does not show any flood history. I've attached two pictures.

I am a disabled veteran and i need some help. My a/c fan stopped working! It is 120*f inside my vehicle!!! The thermostat has been a bit touchy for a few months, but it never ceased to function. Now it has and its blazing hot!!! My daughter started the car and the a/c failed to turn on. No a/c and it is 90*f in the shade. I took my vehicle in for a recall a few years ago that referenced the fan motor harness and moisture of some sort. This is a terrrible development!

Oil consumption - happens when engine is running - consumes ~1qt every 2,000 miles

We have a 2007 ridgeline. Twice before we have experienced the third brake light panel ripping off entirely under higher speeds. It happened both times when we were traveling 65 mph on the expressway. Thankfully no one was hurt and both times the dealership repaired the issue at no expense to us. Unfortunately we are now again experiencing issues with the third brake light panel whereas we are hearing whistling noises and thumping sounds if we go over 60 mph. The parts are still in place and i'm trying to be proactive to get the part fixed before it rips off again. I have contacted both the dealership where we purchased the vehicle and american honda customer service, but neither party is taking responsibility and we are told we would have to have it repaired at our own expense. I even brought to their attention that not only is it the third time it has happened to us, there are numerous on-line reports of people experiencing the same issue. And some have reported having the same problem multiple times. Here are links to a couple on-line reports: http://www.Carproblemzoo.Com/honda/ridgeline/body-problems.Php https://www.Ridgelineownersclub.Com/threads/third-brake-light-panel-fell-off.36990/#post-530200 https://www.Ridgelineownersclub.Com/threads/3rd-brake-light-body-panel-blew-off.27241/#post-387981 https://www.Ridgelineownersclub.Com/threads/wind-noise-whistling.30811/page-4#post-522368 https://www.Ridgelineownersclub.Com/threads/roof-brake-light-assembly-blowing-off.41175/#post-591377 this is the on-line research i have done in just a short time this afternoon. I'm sure that deep, thorough investigation would reveal that this is a legitimate safety issue for which a recall is warranted.

My radiator failed in a fashion in which the radiator fluid mixed with the transmission fluid, destroying my transmission. I was driving my 2007 honda ridgeline on a main road in va when the transmission failed causing me. The failure of the transmission was caused by the radiator failing and subsequently mixing coolant with the transmission fluid. This mix of fluids destroyed the transmission and radiator. I did not want to buy a new car, so i had a local shop install a used transmission and radiator at the cost of about $4k. This appears to be a common problem with honda ridgelines and may be associated with the fact that the transmission line bolts leading to the radiator are comprised of dissimilar metals causing corrosion and a dangerous transmission failure while the vehicle is in motion. I attempted to contact honda of america asking for assistance in the repair because a honda should last at least 250k miles without premature catastrophic failure. Honda replied by making me aware of the warranty and that there was nothing they could do because the vehicle was out of warranty. This is clearly a safety issue, and should be investigated immediately because it is a well known scenario as cited on ridgeline enthusiast websites. I have been a honda enthusiast and owned 6 hondas since 1991, and i have always had good luck with these vehicles, but this scenario is certainly an exception and will eventually lead to serious injury.

When i bought the honda ridgeline i found the transmission line an coolant line broke inside radiator causing issues and having to replace lines an radiator along with tranny flush. Now the transmission shifts hard into fourth shaking the truck every time touching the gas around 60mph and sometimes normal city driving. Aldo the brakes are soft and spongy and has to be put almost to the floor to start stopping. I like hundreds of other ridgeline owners don't understand why honda doesn't fix these issues that basically all ridgelines have. Also whoever the idiot was that decided to put a 4speed transmission in the truck should be beaten an fired! Honda needs to stop ripping people off, you know your screwing people over charging a lot for what happens to be crap. It would be a great truck if wasn't made so cheaply an slapped together with garbage parts.
