2014 Honda Ridgeline Owner Comments

Ridgeline

  • Automatic transmission

Upon accelerating from a stop and turning to either the left or right the throttle control would hesitate and not be responsive to further stepping on the gas pedal. It was like a dead zone as the vehicle was moving but the engine would not respond to the depression on the gas pedal. We do not drive the vehicle much being retired but knew something was wrong.

This is our 3rd Ridgeline since 2005 and never has this happened in prior trucks owned. I thought it was a quirk but it has continued to happen on and off several times and finally I took it to the dealership on 3/16/15 and they could find nothing but did tell me they had another customer with a similar complaint that they again would locate no cause. This has caused us to lose confidence in the vehicle because normally you are crossing opposite lanes of traffic when this occurs and if the engine does not respond and is in a dead like zone for a few seconds, that means we could be involved in an accident.

The dealership said they did find on NTS data base another customer of a 2014 model who reported this engine hesitation or lack of throttle response. Something is definitely wrong and after driving two other Ridgelines for 9 years I know it and now my family is scared to even drive the vehicle.
