My vehicle was recalled because corrosion can form on the rear frame due to accumulation of road de-icing agents mixed with mud and dirt. The fuel tank, which is mounted to the rear frame, can become unsecured as the rear frame deteriorates from corrosion. An unsecured fuel tank may result in a fuel leak and an increased risk of fire in the presence of an ignition source. Loud noises from the rear of the vehicle can alert you in the event the fuel tank becomes unsecured. I called to make an appointment for the recall on [XXX] and it was dropped of at Williams Honda in Traverse City MI the next day for nearest appointment which was [XXX}. I was notified by Williams Honda on [XXX] that my vehicle failed the inspection and could not be fixed. Williams Honda told me to expect a call from Honda. I never did until I called a week later. I tried to get a loaner vehicle or rental since mine could not be repaired. Honda advised that Williams needed to arrange it and Williams advised that it needed to be approved by Honda. This went back an forth for weeks until Honda advised that I could have a rental if I drove to Williams 2 hours from my house. Honda suggested that I purchase a rental vehicle with my own money and submit for reimbursement with the hopes that I would be made whole. It is now [XXX] and they still have refused to make reasonable accommodations for a rental vehicle and they have not fixed my vehicle. Thank you for your attention to this matter, and I would be willing to discuss this matter in greater detail over the phone [XXX] ).

There is currently a rust recall for vehicles registered in states surrounding me, but North Carolina, Tennessee is not included. The recall is from damage by salt to rusting frame and rocker panels. Mine was originally registered in Western NC and currently registered in north east TN. Both of these areas use salt on the roads and my Ridgeline is rusting in the rocker panels and underneath. This is a known issue but why would you allow Honda to not cover vehicles in neighboring states to those covered, i.e. Kentucky, Virginia, West Virginia. Hoping you will act on this since you know it's a problem with states using salt and this Honda is starting to rust rapidly with no warning.

When my dealership inspected my rear frame for corrosion related to warranty 22V-430, they noted that the rear frame corrosion was so severe that the rear passenger wheel was no longer secured to the rear frame, resulting in a severe safety risk. However, warranty 22V-430 relates to corrosion of the rear frame resulting in an unsecured fuel tank which may result in a fuel leak and an increased risk of fire. The dealership and the district Honda representative agreed that the frame was severely corroded and presented a severe safety risk, but the district Honda representative said Honda will not warranty the defective frame nor offer any remedy for the related rear frame corrosion problem. The corrosion problem acknowledged in warranty 22V-430 could impair the safety and stability of the vehicle and put the driver and all passenger as well as other vehicles and pedestrians at risk if the wheel becomes unsecured. Until warranty 22V-430 was performed, there was no warning system alerting me to the safety issue and thus could have easily gone undetected. Since Honda is not taking responsibility for defect in the rear frame, I am seeking your help for this related rear frame corrosion problem. Note: The attached 4 pictures show the rear drivers side frame with secured wheel compared with the rear passenger side frame with unsecured wheel.

Inside door releases will not work. Honda had a technical service bulletin on this matter of defective door clips. However when I called the dealer said this was not a safety recall. How can this not be a safety issue? what happens if the vehicle is in an accident and driver and/or passengers need to get egress the vehicle quickly but the door releases will not work. This is an unsafe condition caused by a manufacturer defect.

Rear locks stopped working. First started on drivers side so that it wouldn't lock automatically not even when putting in drive so it make it unsafe to put a child on that side that may unlock the door if the child lock was not engaged. Then it started doing the same thing on the rear passenger side lock as well. It is random whether it will unlock or lock and it has to be manually locked or unlocked from the inside of the vehicle. When trying to engage security feature to lock up all locks must be locked so if they don't lock automatically you have to open each door and manually lock so that you can secure the vehicle.

The contact owns a 2006 Honda Ridgeline. The contact stated there was a gap on the front of the instrument panel causing water to seep into the instrument panel making the entire air bag system inoperable. The air bag lights continued to illuminate continuously. The vehicle was taken to the dealer who replaced the seat belt connector, the front air bag apron, the rear air bag apron, the air bag rear module and the entire computer system but the failure continued to recur for the past three years. The manufacturer gave him an extra warranty package but the failure continued. The failure mileage was 70,000 and the current mileage was 110,000.

While driving approximately 50mph, the back part of my roof (a 5ft by 8inch piece of steel!) broke loose and flew off completely. It barely missed the car behind me and the oncoming traffic. The dealership says this is not a safety issue. Maybe not for the driver of the Ridgeline but the driver behind me could have easily been decapitated... this is not an isolated incident as the dealership said they have seen this a few times (and I live in a small town)!

Water leaking from exterior of vehicle to interior of vehicle and soaks carpet creating mold and mildew.

While lowering the back seat to make room for people to ride to lunch I noticed the back floor was wet. We have had moderate rains in the area over the past two-three days. Further examination revealed water puddled all the way across the entire back floor board, up the sides to both driver and front passenger floor boards. When I got home I pulled the truck in the garage and used a 5 gallon wet/dry vac and removed about 7.5 - 8 gallons of water from the truck. The carpet is still wet and ruined high likely hood of mold and mildew unless the carpet is removed and replaced. High potential for rust/corrosion unless the carpet is removed and the affected area is dried completely. I plan to take the truckin to the dealer asap.
