STRUCTURE:BODY
Potential Consequences:
Hood is warped because of 3 years of it not latching properly. Recall did not fix the problem. According to the recall, if the hood is damaged they are supposed to replace it, which it is damaged. Honda Autonation 104 refuses to do so saying "this is normal" and I have provided Honda service people that will vouch for us. Provided photos and videos. Safety is put at risk for the driver and passengers along with other motorists if a failure happens and the hood fly's open at highway speeds it could cause death. Yes has been confirmed by dealer employees and and other service shops. The dealer managers refuse to even come look at the vehicle even when it is there at the dealer. First appeared 6 months after we bought the vehicle brand new from said dealer. Has been documented on many of our oil change visits. Still refuse to replace damaged/warped hood. To add to our frustration, Corporate Honda is also in agreement with the dealership. No one from the dealership or Corporate Honda has ever actually inspected the hood. This vehicle, 2019 Honda Ridgeline, has never been involved in any sort of accident and has been very well maintained and taken care of.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
The backup camera stopped functioning due to a wiring defect. The backup camera is installed in the tailgate and wires go between the tailgate and the body on the driver's side. Due to a design defect, these wire are prone to wear, pinching, and being cut during normal operation of the tailgate. The copper in these wires on my truck is exposed and some wires are cut resulting in the backup camera no longer functioning. This creates a safety hazard for both the driver and other people, vehicles, etc. when the car is being backed up. This issue is being investigated on 2017-2018 Honda Ridgelines (NHTSA Action Number: PE22001) but is also occurring on 2019 models which are not currently included in the investigation. This problem first occurred on my truck less than one month and less than 1000 miles after the warranty expired.

Potential Consequences:
The restraints for the OEM bed cover failed and could no longer be properly tightened. The restraints closest to the cab include a carriage bolt where the square in the head is inserted into the plastic body of the restrain to prevent rotation. A nut is spun on the bolt to tighten the restraint mechanism between the cover and a mounting point in the bed. The square in plastic body of the restraint stripped during normal use, allowing the carriage bolt to rotate which prevents the restraint from being properly tightened and the cover from being properly attached to the truck. Without proper restraint, the bed cover could come loose at highway speeds and pose a danger to other motorists.
