   Car failed to restart engine after auto stop/start, battery is fairly new and was replaced because a few incidents like this and assumed it was a faulty battery. It becomes a very dangerous situation when trying to join traffic while exiting a parking lot or when stopped at a traffic light and the car does nor restart. It has to be placed in park, turned off, open a door, close it and then press the ignition button to start again.

   The windshield camera for the cruise control malfunctioned. Excessive warning lights is a distraction. Not using cruise control on long trips is stressful. Seems like a common problem on these vehicles.

   Part 573 Safety Recall Report for the Seat Weight Sensor recall for Honda includes 2017-2021 and certain cars in 2023. Mine Ridgeline is a 2022. My curtain airbags on the drivers side spontaneously deployed while I was driving along a 4-lane highway. I was stunned, but I was able to pull of the road safely, but I am bruised on my shoulder, hip, and thigh due to the impact of the airbags. The 2022 Ridgelines should have been included in the recall. Honda has so far not taken responsibility for the air bag deployment. Because an actual accident did not occur, but a 'mechanical failure', my insurance agency has refused to file and pay for the damage.

   Auto Idle Stop not working. By default it should be on and driver must actively turn it off. Mine does not/not come on. This problem appears different from the numerous other problems reported with the Auto Idle Stop but it still is a problem and indicates the system may have a number of related defects and that its may be just be a metter of time until I experience other more serious problems.

    My engine seized up at only around 74,859 miles. As I was driving it immediately seized up on the roadway causing a hazardous condition. There was no check engine light on to warn me. I had the vehicle towed to dealership and had them inspect the vehicle and take the engine apart. They told me the crankshaft bearings were disintegrated. There were consistent oil changes done with this vehicle. I am now expected to pay $5,000 to $13,000 for a new engine. This is a 2022 Honda Ridgeline.

    Coming down a ramp in parking deck with right foot lightly riding the brake pedal to control the car’s descent when all of a sudden the vehicle accelerated full throttle as if the gas pedal had been “floored.” The acceleration was so intense that it drove my body backward into my seat and pulled my foot off the brake. At this point, the only control I had was my hands on the steering wheel. With the car continuing to accelerate towards the parked cars, I quickly turned the steering wheel to the right, but too late and the front driver side of my vehicle clipped one of the parked cars. My foot is still in the air and yet the car is still surging ahead full throttle and my vehicle is flying towards a car that had come down the ramp a few seconds ahead of me. At this point I slam my right foot onto the brake pedal, but not in time to avoid the passenger front bumper of my vehicle from hitting the rear of that car. At this point, my vehicle’s engine shut off and the HondaLink automatically dialed for help.

    The CEL flashed 2 days earlier, I immediately pulled to the side of the road and turned the vehicle off, suspecting it may be a misfire. Restarted the vehicle and all seemed fine. After arriving home i plugged in my scanner to check for a code. No codes were found. I decided to carry my scanner in the vehicle, and plugged it in before starting a 10 mile drive to a store. After 3 miles, the CEL flashed and displayed code P0303 cylinder 3 misfire. I pulled to the side of the busy interstate I was on and turned the vehicle off. When I restarted the engine, a heard a rattling sound and turned it off. I then called the dealer and asked me to have it towed in. The dealer diagnosed a cylinder #3 spun rod bearing. This occured at 68,517 odometer miles.

    Auto high beams redesigned from g2 to g3 models (mine is a 2022).. They do not work correctly. I know Honda had them working on my 2017 ridegeline, but engineering changes have made they inoperative. There is a multitude of complaints by almost every owner as there were none shipped that worked as designed. Honda support simply ask the owner to adjust the light sensitivity setting (low, med,high) but that is not the issue. While adjusting sensitivity may control the point at which the lights sense the brightness of on coming traffic, is does nothing to fix the problems.. 1.) problem Honda changes from 30MPH min spped to turn on automatically to 45 MPH. Useless at 45 MPH turn on, to many back roads where you need them are under 45 mhp. 2.) high beams go off when they sense the oncoming traffic lights, but alomost 100% of the time they fail to realize oncoming traffic terribly blinding oncoming traffic. 3.) They do not reenable themselves , after taking note, they appear to have a timer such that if they go off, for a set number of seconds (way to long) they may and I mean may re-enable themselves, but by the time they do if they do, the distance traveled before being reenabled is unacceptable. 2017-2020's ridgeline, work as expected, off in oncomng and back on with an sec or 2. 4.). Worst part, Honda continues and continues to make and distribute later ridgeline models with the same safety hazzard and selling them defective. Customer support and dealer are well aware of the issue, bug have not offered any fix or software patch for this design flaw... Hey my recourse is simply this, if they fail to turn off and a the police are my oncoming traffic and issue a ticket, I sue Honda and second and worst yet if it causes an serious accident possilby because a driver went off the road, I sue Honda.. and your folks for failure to tell Honda to fix this.. Way to long , to may complaints to you and Honda yet nothing 4 years later almost is being done... Kinda horrible?

    I took my vehicle to the Honda dealership to have a safety recall repaired. Following the repair, the alarm started intermittently going off. Before the repair, the vehicle was running well. I did not know what the alarm sounded like before the recall repair. After they checked the vehicle, I was hit with a $1500 repair bill to replace the Keyless Control Unit. This part is what is causing the issue. Now I am left with no recourse. I called Honda corporate, and they told me that they couldn't help me. I am very disappointed because I am a long-time Honda owner and apprantly the quality is not there anymore.
