• Rear-view camera failure investigation # PE24004

  The office of defects investigation (odi) has received 27 complaints and a number of early warning reporting (ewr) field reports alleging failure of the rear-view camera (rvc) in 2020-2023 model year honda ridgeline vehicles. The complainants report when the rvc fails it shows a black screen when in reverse rather than the camera view. Many report damage to the tailgate wire harness that appears to be caused by normal usage of the vehicle when opening and closing the tailgate. The damage to the wire harness severs the connection to the rvc causing it to fail to function as designed. Failure or malfunction of the rvc results in reduced visibility of the area behind the vehicle. This limited view may lead to an increased risk of a crash resulting in injury and/or property damage. Odi is opening this preliminary evaluation (pe) to determine the scope and severity of the potential problem and to fully assess the potential safety-related issues. To review the odi reports cited in the opening resume odi report identification number document, go to nhtsa.Gov.

Sunroof spontaneously shattered while driving. Sunroof is not safety glass and shattered into thousands of shards. If the inner cover had been open the driver would have been hit in the face with these glass shards while driving at highway speed. There was nothing on the roadway that could have caused this explosion. Smooth paved road and no close traffic. We believe it is a defect and the type of glass is inherently dangerous to be used in a motor vehicle.

On 12 or more occasions the truck braked for no reason. Nothing in front of me. It's been to the shop 3 times for this. I have done research on this problem and found out honda has several law suites on their cmbs system going back to 2015. So why have they been aloud to keep this system in cars and trucks.

On two occasions, i was driving at freeway speeds in a cold climate for about an hour. I decelerated onto an off ramp. Upon acceleration, i received a flashing check engine light and reduced power. I was able to limp home at decreased speeds. I was able to pull codes P0304 - cylinder 4 misfire, P0305 - cylinder 5 misfire, C342D - manufacturer control. The problem went away after restarting the vehicle. I took the vehicle to the dealer, but they were unable to see any codes or reproduce the issue.

The brakes are soft if you hit the brakes out of the "clear blue". If you recently pressed them within the last couple of seconds, the pedal has a much firmer and grabbier perception. The brakes function nicely, but the variance in brake feel could be detrimental where fractions of a second matter. The vehicle does it all the time regardless of terrain or temperature.

When driving on a highway, the auto dimming high beam headlight system often fails to dim the high beams when an oncoming vehicle is approaching - often causing the oncoming driver to "flash" his high beams in anger. The system will also dim the high beams when it shouldn't.- when there's no vehicle ahead of you at all. The dealership has been unable to find a fix for the problem. I find other owners complaining of the same problem here... Https://www.Ridgelineownersclub.Com/threads/auto-high-beam-cool-maybe-not.215738

The auto high beam feature does not work correctly. Turns on and off at it's own reflection from roadside sings of all shape and sizes. Flashes other vehicles when it is supposed to be on low beam. Have complained to honda and was told if i did not like it too deactivate the feature.
