Honda Ridgeline 2006 has considerable hesitation when accelerating from under 10 mph, especially when turning. I was leaving the parking lot of convenience store rolling at about 5 mph and then tried to accelerate out into faster moving traffic. Vehicle hesitated for about 3 seconds which put me in a position where cars on the roadway I was entering had to brake. Hesitation is constant and consistent since purchase of the truck. Now I currently have 2000 miles on vehicle. Called Honda and they say it's normal for the system of "drive by wire". I have another family member with same vehicle, he has no hesitation. Honda refuses to fix or at least look into my problem as they continue to say it's normal.

Fire in engine bay of new Honda Ridgeline, debris caught between exhaust and catalytic converter. Major damage. Bought 2nd. Ridgeline. 2 minor episodes of burning smell while using on dirt roads. This is not a coincidence!
