What 2011 Honda Ridgeline owners say
Most recent owner complaints, unedited.
Takata recall my sister was driving a 2011 honda ridgeline on I-85 on may 2, 2015 when the vehicle started off the left side of the road she corrected this and the truck overturned. Two others in the truck were able to get to get out but my sister had to be cut from the vehicle. All were taken to hospital and released but 12 days later my sister died as a result of trauma to the lungs. Recalls for this vehicle were dated 02/12/2016 and 05/23/2016 a little late. I have the accident report and the autopsy but have no way to upload them.
Tl* takata recall. The contact owns a 2011 honda ridgeline.

I was notified in april of the airbag deployment device recall by mail with indication that my local dealer would contact me. I contacted perfection honda in albuquerque, 898-0000, in early july after no one called me and they said they would have to order it but were having trouble getting them. I have checked back every month since then and the part is not available. I contacted honda north america 9/5/2016 and they said they cannot help that my only option is to wait until perfection honda called me after receiving the part. So it is now 5 months later and I still have a defective inflator and no resolution in sight. This is a great safety concern and no one seems to be willing to or able to help??!! Is this vehicle safe to operate on the roads? What's the risk? What can you do?
Specifically, in some vehicles, the driver's front airbag inflator could produce excessive internal pressure upon deployment. If an affected airbag deploys, the increased internal pressure may cause the inflator to rupture (break apart) and deploy abnormally. I got this recall in feb 12, 2016 how long do I have to wait to get taken care of, before something happens?
Takata recall I received a letter from honda last march alerting me to the airbag recall and that deployment of the airbag could kill me and that a remedy would be available in the summer of 2016. Summer is about over and I've yet to receive notice to bring my vehicle in to a honda dealer to rectify this dangerous situation.
Honda is replacing only my driver's side air bag and not the passenger side. Honda is now saying its safe to drive as long as no one sits in the front passenger side. This is not an option for my family. The rental car honda was providing should continue to be offered to me until my vehicle is safe to drive and the passenger side takata air-beg is repaired. Case:04962383.
Takata recall inappropriate and unacceptable advise provided by hoehn honda dealership carlsbad california. August 9, 2016, phone conversation with hoehn honda regarding airbag recall. 1.hoehn took vehicle info and VIN number. 2.hoehn advised us that the car was recalled and not to have anybody ride in the front passenger seat until the airbag is replaced. 3.airbags are ordered but not available. 4.no mention of driver side airbag recall. 5.no offer of loaner car made. August 23, 2019, phone conversation with hoehn honda regarding airbag recall and our updated information that the drivers airbag is recalled as well. 1.hoehn again advised us that the car was recalled and the airbags are ordered, but have not arrived and not to have anybody ride in the front passenger seat until the airbag is replaced. 2.I ask about the drivers airbag and after taking my vehicle VIN number they then advised us not to drive the car. 3.I inquired about a loaner car. 4.hoehn said they could not otherwise a loaner car. This had to be handled through american honda. 5.after insistence and speaking to a manager, a loaner car was then offered until a new drivers airbag was installed. August 24, 2016 phone conversation with american honda case number 04950465. 1.informed me that dealerships are normally authorized to provide loaner cars for airbag recalls 2.hoehn honda was aware of both the drivers side as well as the passenger side airbags were recalled. 3.hoehn had ordered both airbags and they currently had the passenger airbag earmarked for my vehicle in stock. 4.this was going to beforwarded to american honda management for further investigation. It appears that hoehn is willfully providing unacceptable advice to save money and puts drivers at an unacceptable risk.
Takata recall. Honda has not replaced the defective airbag in a timely manner. I have become to concerned about driving it. Also, the resale and trade-in value of the truck has been diminished.
