Defect Description:
FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
I took my 2019 Honda Ridgeline in on November 4, 2024, for a P0430 code (which was intermittent) and for a fuel pump recall. The dealership informed me that the fuel pump would need to be ordered, which would take a few days. However, shortly after dropping off the vehicle, I received a call stating that the fuel injector for cylinder 6 had failed the test, and they quoted $1,734.71 for replacing the fuel injectors. I inquired about Honda Service Bulletin 19-073 (dated July 5, 2019), which addresses issues related to debris from the fuel injector manufacturing process. The dealership then called back and informed me that this issue would only be covered under the warranty period. They advised me to submit a claim directly to Honda, providing me with a phone number for that purpose. Since getting the vehicle back, I have conducted further research and found Honda Service Bulletin 21-010 (dated February 11, 2021), which extends the warranty on these fuel injector repairs to 10 years or 150,000 miles, whichever comes first. My Ridgeline has only 61,000 miles. I filed a claim with AMERICAN HONDA MOTOR CO, case # 15143166 on 11/16/24 requesting reimbursement for the fuel injector repair in the amount of $1,734.71. I received a phone call on 11/30/24 stating my claim had been rejected. They stated I needed to submit a complaint with NHTSA. The symptoms experienced are the exact the same as the two service bulletins describe, thus the repairs should be covered. I emailed the service department on November 15, 2024, to inquire about the status of the fuel pump, but as of today, it has not yet arrived. I have been waiting over a year for a fuel pump replacement. I have highlighted pertinent information in the attached documents

ENGINE
Potential Consequences:
Engine suffered internal mechanical failure. I had the failed engine replaced so it is no longer in my position. My wife was driving and was nearly rear-ended on a major highway at around 55mph. Without warning, the truck stalled then completely stopped. she was able to get it running for a short period in order to go down an off ramp. Then it would not restart. I had the truck towed to the dealer and the diagnosing mechanic described it as an internal mechanical failure, most likely a rod bearing failure. The dealership service manager discouraged me for having the engine full diagnosed because of the cost. Failure occurred without warning. Once the truck stalled, all warning lights began to flash.

POWER TRAIN
Potential Consequences:
I am writing to express my concern regarding an ongoing transmission issue with my Honda Ridgeline. I initially experienced problems with the transmission around 60,000 miles, which manifested as gear slippage or shuddering. After bringing the vehicle in for inspection, I was informed that this issue had been noticed with other Ridgeline models, although Honda has not issued a recall for it. Instead, a Service Bulletin was issued, recommending a transmission fluid flush followed by a test drive at various speeds, and repeating this process three times. This procedure was performed, and the issue seemed to resolve temporarily. However, I am now experiencing the same problem again at 79,000 miles. While the flush worked previously, it seems unreasonable that I would need to repeat this process, especially considering the associated costs of flushing the transmission fluid multiple times without a lasting solution.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
Honda issued a recall for my vehicle in Feb 2024 and I have sought to have this issue resolved since then. I have visited my local dealer from whom I purchased the vehicle over 12 times since and they have declined to put me on a list to obtain the replacement part. Today, the parts department clerk told me that all the parts that they receive from Honda go to fix the vehicles that they have on the lot for sale. They would not accept an order for the part to repair my vehicle and told me that I would just have to keep checking in with them. I have been waiting for over 10 months for their proactive response to no avail. There is no indication that Honda has any intention of repairing this defect and the Safety Consequence of a potential of an 'increased risk of a crash or injury' remains. My wife does not even want to travel in this vehicle due to the unresolved risk that this vehicle presents. I strongly feel that Honda should be required to resolve this issue for the existing cliental with in use vehicles prior to being allowed to fix their unsold in stock used vehicles for sale and profit (to the detriment of existing customers). This would certainly put the pressure on Honda to expedite the remedy of this long existing recall.
Corrective Action:
Honda issued a recall for my vehicle in Feb 2024 and I have sought to have this issue resolved since then. I have visited my local dealer from whom I purchased the vehicle over 12 times since and they have declined to put me on a list to obtain the replacement part. Today, the parts department clerk told me that all the parts that they receive from Honda go to fix the vehicles that they have on the lot for sale. They would not accept an order for the part to repair my vehicle and told me that I would just have to keep checking in with them.

ENGINE
Potential Consequences:
Beginning at ~30K miles, I am hearing a "rod-knock" from the bottom of engine. Especially noticeable when starting out from a stop. Easily reproduced by putting foot on brake, truck in drive, and slowly depressing accelerator pedal. All maintenance since day 1 on truck (now has 65k miles) has been done at dealer. Reported issue to dealer and they responded, "cannot duplicate". I fall within the Honda engine rod bearing issue and I am concerned about engine failure.
