Of the 37 fuel system complaints filed for the 2019 Honda Ridgeline, here's the actual mileage breakdown — failures cluster heaviest at 25,000-50,000 mi.
Each bar shows the share of total complaints filed at that mileage range. Peak failure window highlighted. Some owners report problems earlier; some make it well past 150,000 miles symptom-free. Maintenance habits and driving conditions shift the curve as much as mileage alone.
A crack in the fuel pump feed port can allow pressurized fuel to leak out, increasing the risk of a fire.
The manufacturer has issued service bulletins covering fuel system on this vehicle — documented repair instructions, service campaigns, or warranty extensions sent to dealers. A TSB isn't a recall (it's not a free safety remedy), but it's the manufacturer acknowledging the issue and how to fix it.
Service Bulletin - Due to variations in the purge control solenoid valve spring, the valve wears unevenly and intermittently sticks. This may result in setting DTC P0441 (Evaporative Emission (EVAP) System Purge Flow Malfunction).
full bulletin at NHTSA ↗Service Bulletin - (Repair Procedure Revision) Due to swelling of the fuel pump motor impeller, the fuel pump may seize and stop working. If this occurs, the check engine light may be displayed with DTC P0087 (Fuel Rail Pressure Too Low) stored, the engine may not start, or the engine could stall while driving, increasing the risk of a crash. Replace the fuel pump motor.
full bulletin at NHTSA ↗Service bulletin - The MIL is on with DTC P2422 (EVAP canister vent shut valve stuck closed malfunction). Dirt may be clogging the EVAP canister vent tube.

Engine stalling and power loss dominate the 2019 Ridgeline fuel-system complaints. Owners report the vehicle stalling at traffic lights, losing power during acceleration or highway driving at 50-70 mph, hesitating when attempting to pass, and refusing to accelerate despite pedal input. Failures happen across a wide mileage range—as early as 5,000 miles and as late as 150,000—sometimes recurring after restart. Check engine and emissions warning lights frequently illuminate, occasionally intermittently. One owner scanned the truck and found fault code P0087 (fuel pump pressure/flow). One dealer diagnosed a fuel injector replacement at 78,000 miles that resolved the issue, though that vehicle wasn't covered under the applicable technical service bulletin.
The real hammer is the recall logistics failure. Thirty of thirty-six complaints center on NHTSA Campaign 23V858000 (Fuel System, Gasoline). Honda issued the recall, but as of March 2025—over a year later—parts are essentially unavailable. Owners repeatedly contacted dealerships only to hear parts haven't arrived. Multiple owners waited 12+ months with no progress. The manufacturer confirmed parts are distributed in limited quantities and acknowledged delays exceeded reasonable timeframes. Several owners never experienced a failure but can't get the recall done anyway.

It's a documented issue but not catastrophic. 37 complaints have been filed. Repairs average $1,200 and most owners catch it before it causes a breakdown.
Across the 8 complaints that reported odometer mileage, most fuel system failures cluster between 46,000 and 119,917 miles, with the median around 82,000. A quarter of owners report trouble before 46,000; a quarter make it past 119,917. Maintenance history matters more than the odometer alone — this is the reported failure window, not a guarantee.
Independent shops typically charge around $1,200 for fuel system repairs on this vehicle. Dealer pricing tends to run 20-40% higher. The exact figure depends on the specific failure mode, parts availability, and your local labor rates. If you're outside factory warranty, an extended service contract often covers this category.
