2006 Honda Ridgeline owner complaints

On 5 nov 09, I attended a business meeting in deerfield beach. When I was ready to return to west palm beach, I turned on the truck ignition to start it and it made a couple of clicks and nothing happened. I automatically assumed it was the battery since it was over four years old and the hot weather in florida takes its toll on batteries. I also noticed that the instrument cluster did not light up when I attempted to start it but I thought it was because the battery was dead. I called aaa and they arrived an hour later and jump started the vehicle. The engine turned over several times like it wasn't getting enough fuel but then started on the second attempt. The aaa representative agreed that he thought the battery was dead and needed replaced. I started to leave and noticed the in

I own a 2006 Honda ridgeline which I purchased new from the Honda dealership in hempstead, new york. On december 15, 2010, I was driving on utopia parkway in queens, new york when I noticed a burning smell. I had the heat on and turned it off. I pulled over to check where the smell was coming from. I saw smoke coming from the glove compartment area, I immediately called 911. When I opened the hood, there were flames coming from the same area. I have reported this to Honda. After doing some research online, I find that this same thing has happened to a number of 2006/2007 Honda ridgeline owners. It is obvious there is some kind of defect and not just a coincidence. I am waiting for Honda to get back to me. *tr

The maintenance minder display started blinking and then went blank at times. Dealer says to repair it requires replacing the entire instrument display at a cost of $575. Without the display you have no odometer and no door open or other indicators. *tr

The air conditioner stopped blowing air. While researching the issue I found a recall for the HVAC blower fan. This VIN number model is displaying the same symptoms as the recall for the HVAC blower. I called the dealer and they said that my VIN model number doesn't have a recall or a recall for this issue. I think is a valid recall because it is pretty much doing the same thing.

i had my vehicle put through the recall test on 9/13/2022 i have not heard a peep from Honda, almost 4 months later

We got our ridgeline on march 12 a few days that they had been out, only the second that the duval Honda had sold. And we have done nothing but love that truck. On friday 11/25/05 on my way to work, I ahd been driving about 5-8 mintues and then I smelt something a little strange.........coming out of the ac vent. I turned the heater off......the smell of smoke started to get heavier and heavier. I looked into the vent and noticed that there was smoke and fire billowing inside.....not sure where it was coming from...I got out of the truck, called fire/rescue, and began to get most of the belongings that I could. The truck was fully involved by time fire/rescue arrived on scene. I must say that, back in septmber I noticed that the radio which is still stock was wired incorrectly, I men

Truck failed to start after work, after several tries the truck started but warning lights came on and there was a knocking noise in the engine. After a couple of seconds the warning lights went off and the noise went away. When I started to drive it surged a couple of times and then ran normal. I checked the engine when I got home to find coolant on the dipstick and very low on coolant in the radiator. I took the truck to a Honda dealer who inspected it and told me what I already knew and said that I need a new engine, they have not told me what the cause is. After a very brief search on the web I found numerous complaints on this model year truck with the same problem. Going to dealer today to talk with the service manager and discuss my options and ask for help from Honda on this matte

"takata recall" - written recall received from Honda - I have called on september 14, november 1 and december 5 of 2016. Dealer states parts are not available!

2006 Honda ridgeline. Consumer received recall notice, but has yet to hear back from the dealership regarding an appointment to have vehicle repaired. *ss

While riding down the highway the back window that opens and closes shattered all over two people in the truck. I thought all the glass in the vehicle was suppose to be safety glass. There was no reason behind the glass shattering, it just exploded. Other windows in the vehicle were also down. *tr

While driving the vehicle through a drive through christmas light display area, the rear sliding glass shattered while partially open. No evidence of impact was found inside or outside the vehicle. Fortunately the children were not in the vehicle rear seat at that point in time. Searching the internet, I found a forum that have several other people has had this happen to them as well.*tr

Brake system malfunctioned causing brake pedal to go to the floor negating the ability to stop. Dealer clueless in cause. *tr

Master cylinder on vehicle gone out twice within a year. *tr

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.

Steering pump is failing and almost hit a car due to failing steering pump. I am requesting that Honda repair my Honda ridgeline. Truck goes why off and I have no other car. Looking and speaking to an attorney to file law suite.
