1 Wiper problem of the 2019 Honda Ridgeline
Failure Date: 06/14/2024
Driving on the freeway the sun roof exploded shattering the glass unexpectedly. There was no rock or other outside projectile that hit the glass since I had a kayak above the glass on a roof rack pretty much covering most of the glass. I was able to close the shade door inside before the glass came down on us. I found out that this has happened on other Honda vehicles and there is a class action suit which I don't know much about. My insurance company will replace it but will cost me my $500 deductible.

5 Wiper problem of the 2020 Honda Ridgeline

Side view mirrors were replaced for a recall. Replacement drivers side mirror was wavy and distorted. Made me not want to use it. More dangerous to drive not wanting to use that mirror.

6 Wiper problem of the 2020 Honda Ridgeline
Failure Date: 02/07/2024
I had my driver and passenger side mirrors replaced because of the issued recall. However, the new driver's mirror is now very distorted and causes a fun-house effect. This is a safety issue and it impacts visibility and safe operation of the vehicle while in motion. A quick review of online owner forums reveals this to be a common issue after the original mirror recall was issued. Please get Honda to issue a new recall and replace with adequate, safe mirrors!.
7 Wiper problem of the 2021 Honda Ridgeline
Failure Date: 01/01/2024
I’ve had issues with the side view mirrors with this vehicle since the day that I took delivery. They were always wobbly. Honda issued a recall on them and the replacement mirrors look like “fun house” mirrors. They are super distorted and make me nauseous looking out of them. This is not an isolated incident. Many people are experiencing issues with the recalled mirrors being distorted. Honda needs to come up with another recall and real fix for this.
8 Wiper problem of the 2020 Honda Ridgeline
Failure Date: 12/15/2023
Honda Ridgeline model year 2020. Rear view camera intermittently not working. Issue can be temporally resolved by opening the tailgate in one of the two ways (flip down or swing out) diagnosed by dealer as requiring a tailgate harness replacement. This appears to be same/similar to the 2017-2019 recall kck 2017-19. (Honda service bulletin 22-049).
9 Wiper problem of the 2020 Honda Ridgeline
Failure Date: 12/05/2023
My Ridgeline was at the Honda dealer for a recall on both left and right exterior mirrors. (glass only) both were replaced. After leaving the dealer, the drivers side mirror image appeared wavy and distorted. It was difficult to focus on the image while driving rendering the mirror almost useless. The passenger side appears perfect. How can a replacement drivers side mirror installed due to a recall be worse than the recalled unit it replaced? frustrating.
10 Wiper problem of the 2010 Honda Ridgeline
Failure Date: 12/01/2023
Rear sliding glass window spontaneously exploded while parked in enclosed space. Have read multiple accounts of similar things happening to this generation Ridgeline.

11 Wiper problem of the 2020 Honda Ridgeline
Failure Date: 11/01/2023
The rear camera on my 2020 Honda Ridgeline has failed. The dealership identifies the wiring harness "showing wires" and has ordered a replacement. Right now I'm unable to see anything behind the vehicle. Only a Honda dealer has confirmed the problem. For a few weeks the problem would come and go but now only an abbreviated "ladder" like diagram shows up when putting the vehicle in reverse. No live picture. The truck has less than 25000 miles and never used commercially.
12 Wiper problem of the 2020 Honda Ridgeline
Failure Date: 10/29/2023
I shifted the vehicle into reverse and the parking assist camera (backup camera) did not appear on the infotainment screen as it should. There is an active recall on the 2017 - 2019 models as Honda is aware of this problem with the tailgate wiring harness design. Backing up without the visual aid poses a serious safety threat to any pedestrians or vehicles that may not be seen due to the camera not working as it should. I have not yet scheduled a repair for this item but will update when the problem is remedied. There was no warning before this occured. It was sudden without any signs. It is my hope and the duty of the manufacturer that this issue is fixed within all model years that this problem is known to occur.
13 Wiper problem of the 2020 Honda Ridgeline
Failure Date: 10/16/2023
Rear backup camera display going black when backing up. There is a recall for the 2017-2019 Honda Ridgeline but there is not one for the 2020. The same issue is present where the dual action tailgate frays the wiring and eventually separates. The master technician at Honda stated that this fix is exactly the same as the previous years when that recall was performed on other vehicles. At first the back-up camera would work then it would go black until I opened and closed the tailgate. Then it got bad enough that it always went black. This is a design and safety issue. Honda remedied the issue by charging me for a new wiring harness, routing the wiring efficiently and the initial inspection.
14 Wiper problem of the 2017 Honda Ridgeline
Failure Date: 08/03/2023
My 2017 Honda Ridgeline's backup camera is not working. Screen its totally black. I can not see to the rear in the camera.
15 Wiper problem of the 2023 Honda Ridgeline
Failure Date: 05/30/2023
When traveling at night the high beams will not stay on. . . They flicker on and off at random intervals.

16 Wiper problem of the 2019 Honda Ridgeline
Failure Date: 04/09/2023
Driving on the interstate on 4/09/23 my 2019 Honda Ridgeline hood began to vibrate badly. I slowed and pulled over on the shoulder. The hood was barely still connected but had an open gap. I opened and slammed the hood and continued home at a slower speed, (approx. 62 mph). I had taken the Ridgeline in on Feb. 16, 2022 at the Honda dealer as per Honda's safety recall concerning the hood latch striker recall. This complaint is that they obviously did not or were not able to fix the problem. I have another appointment at the local dealer in alcoa, TN. But I worry they may not be able to fix it?.
17 Wiper problem of the 2020 Honda Ridgeline
Failure Date: 04/07/2023
Rear camera has stopped working. There was a recall for 2017 - 2019 Honda Ridgelines, currently does not include 2020. My mileage is 39600 and was told not covered. They apparently have not fixed the problem and it needs to include 2020’s as well.
18 Wiper problem of the 2018 Honda Ridgeline
Failure Date: 03/08/2023
Drivers side mirror has slid down. Can't adjust mirror anymore. Something wrong with adhesive on back of mirror.

19 Wiper problem of the 2022 Honda Ridgeline
Failure Date: 02/05/2023
Per high temperature 90 or more degrees windshield got broken. No explanation and rare this is not normal if the quality of front windshield (cristal ) is a good quality. I reported Honda and no response. Manufacturer should investigate as is a safety problem.
20 Wiper problem of the 2018 Honda Ridgeline
Failure Date: 11/10/2022
The backup camera intermittently works. When put in reverse, sometimes I’ll have a black screen with grid lines, other times just a blank screen. Yes, it is available for inspection. I cannot see persons and property when backing up. I am afraid, in reverse, of running over persons shorter than the vehicle that only the backup camera would pick up. This has not been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or service station. The vehicle has not been inspected by another entity. There has been no warning lights or messages from the vehicle about the issue. I purchased the vehicle in October 2022 and the issue started two weeks after purchase.
21 Wiper problem of the 2019 Honda Ridgeline
Failure Date: 11/03/2022
Manufacturer is refusing to complete recall #kck. Dealer inspected vehicle and says backup camera works so Honda is telling them to do nothing. This was 5 months ago. Unable to get recall removed from my VIN.
22 Wiper problem of the 2018 Honda Ridgeline
Failure Date: 11/01/2022
The problem revolves around the rear-view camera failing through the normal use of the vehicle. The issue affects 2017-2018 ridelines, a number of whose owners complain that the screen goes black when they try to reverse. The complaints suggest that the wiring harness going from the main body of the vehicle into the tailgate, where the camera is located, suffers severe damage caused by the normal opening and closing of the tailgate. In my case I've confirmed this is true. Backup cam suddenly stopped working. Inspected wiring to backup cam at back where tailgate is and confirmed wiring is severed.
23 Wiper problem of the 2017 Honda Ridgeline
Failure Date: 10/24/2022
Back-up camera black screen due to tailgate wiring harness failure.
24 Wiper problem of the 2018 Honda Ridgeline
Failure Date: 09/22/2022
Wire harness failed due to pinching in tailgate. This resulted in the rear view camera no longer functioning. Due to the camera failure, I can no longer see behind the vehicle when reversing. This has been inspected by the dealership. Although this is a common issue, they declined to repair it. Cost to repair would be $465 + labor.
25 Wiper problem of the 2017 Honda Ridgeline
Failure Date: 09/01/2022
Rearview camera in tailgate stopped working due to a damaged wiring harness. The harness is routed in a manner which is sure to fail through normal tailgate operation.
26 Wiper problem of the 2019 Honda Ridgeline
Failure Date: 05/04/2022
2019 Honda Ridgeline backup camera broke 5/2022 due to defective wiring harness at side hinge. Wires were chaffed bare, design flaw rendering camera useless. Safety compromised while backing up. Honda not receptive to repair.
27 Wiper problem of the 2019 Honda Ridgeline
Failure Date: 05/03/2022
Rear backup camera does not work, not a fuse issue. As we are seniors and have come to rely on camera while backing up, small children (our grandchildren) and pedestrians (while shopping) are at risk. Dangerous safety risk. We should not have to pay for this repair which I consider a safety issue on such a new vehicle.
28 Wiper problem of the 2018 Honda Ridgeline
Failure Date: 03/15/2022
The failed system is the backup camera and the failure can be inspected. Our safety is compromised because we cannot see objects behind the vehicle before or during backing maneuvers. The damage has been reported and confirmed by the Honda dealer as well as an independent. There was no warning of the failure, one day it worked the next day it did not work.
29 Wiper problem of the 2018 Honda Ridgeline
Failure Date: 03/12/2022
Back-up camera malfunction. Displays black screen in reverse. Appears to be related to a wire ingenuity in the left side of tailgate hinge. First noted 3-12-2022. Web search depicts back up camera failure on many 2017-2019 Honda Ridgeline trucks.
30 Wiper problem of the 2021 Honda Ridgeline
Failure Date: 02/10/2022
I purchased this 2021 Honda Ridgeline new. The windshield washers quit working about six months later. For the past 12 months I have been trying to get the replacement nozzles from no less than 8 different Honda dealers. They are on national back order and after repeated orders, most recently with Honda of asheville nc I contacted the Honda customer support. Case # 13583397. Now after almost 30 days and at least 6 calls and e-mails to them I still have no idea if they will ever get these nozzles for me. As you can imagine with adverse weather conditions it is a major safety issue to have poor visibility out of the windshield. Please help!! these are specially designed low pressure nozzles so they are not available anywhere but Honda.
31 Wiper problem of the 2017 Honda Ridgeline
Failure Date: 04/10/2021
Wiring for the backup camera has been pinched by the tailgate opening to the point of breaking the wires and the protective loom. Backup camera no longer works.
32 Wiper problem of the 2017 Honda Ridgeline
Failure Date: 02/17/2021
The rear view camera failed, because wires in the harness leading to the camera (located in tailgate) became bare and then severed through regular opening/closing of the tailgate. Many other Ridgeline owners have experienced this issue.
33 Wiper problem of the 2017 Honda Ridgeline
Failure Date: 01/23/2021
Sunroof spontaneously exploded by while driving the car on highway 50 from sacramento to tahoe, suspect changing outside temperature to around 30ďż˝.
34 Wiper problem of the 2017 Honda Ridgeline
Failure Date: 01/22/2021
Backup camera failed while backing out of parking space. Rear backup camera failed as a result of overstress of wires in tailgate. Wires broke as a result of normal tailgate operation.
35 Wiper problem of the 2017 Honda Ridgeline
Failure Date: 01/01/2021
The rear backup camera that is used every single day has gone completely black. The wire harness that runs from the truck to the tailgate have split due to opening and closing. This is a very common problem that is not the easiest to fix which costs the owners. This will happen to every single 2017-2019 Ridgeline. It is simply caused by opening and closing tailgate in the parked position.
