Honda (american Honda Motor Co.)
Defect Description:
POWER TRAIN
Potential Consequences:
When the vehicle is in drive, stopped on a steep hill, and allowed to slip backward the software puts the transmission in neutral and shuts of the engine off. This leaves the vehicle coasting backwards with very little steering or brakes. This happened to me and I coasted backward across a street before I could get it stopped. If a car had been coming it would have hit me sideways. I can reproduce this in drive forward or in reverse, and I reproduced this in a second 2021 Ridge Line truck. There is no warning or message.

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: WARNINGS
Potential Consequences:
I have a 2021 Honda Ridgeline Sport equipped with CMBS an automatic braking system that is supposed to be a safety feature, but actually makes the car more dangerous. The problem with the Ridgeline Sport collision mitigation braking system is that it attempts to mitigate crashes when the system thinks an obstacle is ahead, but it is a false warning, and there are no actual obstacles. It appears there is a software or sensor defect in the Honda Sensing technology causing the vehicle to issue warnings and alerts to the driver and the potential to automatically hit the brakes without warning when there are no obstacles in front of the vehicle and it has not deviated from its lane. Service Advisor/Mechanic at dealership called it a computer glitch. Nothing they can do. Taking it back again to have it on record; dealership tried to fix vehicle. This vehicle is potentially dangerous with no way to correct concern at this time. Problem continues since March 2021.

EXTERIOR LIGHTING
Potential Consequences:
WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT EVEN WITH NO TRAFFIC AHEAD, THE AUTOMATIC HIGH BEAMS RARELY TURN ON. WHEN THEY DO, THEY TURN OFF ALMOST IMMEDIATELY DUE TO REFLECTIONS FROM ROAD SIGNS AND EVEN SMALL ROAD MARKERS. OCCASIONALLY, THEY'LL FAIL TO DIM IN A TIMELY FASHION OR WILL FLASH CAUSING OTHER DRIVERS TO THINK I'M DOING THIS ON PURPOSE. OTHER OWNERS OF 2020 AND 2021 HONDA RIDGELINES ARE REPORTING THE SAME USELESS AND UNSAFE OPERATION. I OWNED 2017 AND 2019 HONDA RIDGELINES WITH AUTOMATIC HIGH BEAMS AND THE FEATURE WORKED REASONABLY WELL. FROM 2017-2019, HONDA USED A DEDICATED CAMERA FOR THE AUTOMATIC HIGH BEAM FUNCTION. FOR THE 2020 MODEL YEAR, HONDA ELIMINATED THIS CAMERA AND MERGED THE AUTOMATIC HIGH BEAM FUNCTIONALITY INTO THE "MULTI-PURPOSE CAMERA UNIT" THAT IS ALSO USED FOR OTHER FUNCTIONS SUCH AS THE LANE KEEPING ASSIST SYSTEM FEATURE OF HONDA SENSING. IN SHORT, THE NEW AUTOMATIC HIGH BEAM SYSTEM IS NOT ONLY USELESS, BUT OFFENSIVE TO OTHER DRIVERS. I'M AFRAID THE FLASHING WILL INDUCE ROAD RAGE OR GAIN UNWANTED ATTENTION FROM LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICERS. FOR NOW, I HAVE DISABLED THE AUTOMATIC HIGH BEAM SYSTEM. THE 2021 RIDGELINE'S HEADLIGHTS ARE ALREADY A STEP BACKWARDS ACCORDING TO IIHS TESTING (AND MY OWN OBSERVATIONS) AND I FEEL LIKE THE "HIGH BEAM ASSIST' CREDIT THEY APPLY SHOULD BE REMOVED SINCE THIS FEATURE IS NEXT TO USELESS SINCE THE 2020 MODEL YEAR.
