I have an engine failure at 99k miles. The car is in pristine condition inside out. Oil changes are done every 5k miles. Without any warning, check engine light or any indication from the car's computer, the engine just failed while driving. It sounded like there was something grinding inside the engine. The truck was towed to Honda dealer and they said I need a new engine replacement. They found metal shavings in the engine oil. The invoice indicates "Found more has bad rod knock recommend replace engine assembly"

Emissions System Problem Alert message and Check Engine Light came on Jan 27th 2024. Vehicle Mileage at this point was 59,960. I took my 2019 2WD Ridgeline Sport in for service early Feb. 2024 to have the problem investigated. It was deemed as bad Fuel Injectors. Parts were not in stock and were ordered. The Check Engine Light and the Alert went away the very next day. Then there was a recall issued for the fuel pump around mid February 2024. Parts were not available so it was ordered. Fast forward to March (No Check Engine Light or Alerts) I did some research on fuel pump issues and found that it could cause the Check Engine light to come on and the Emissions System alert. March 22nd I took it in for the fuel pump replacement, upon arrival they stated that the fuel injectors were in and they would replace those as well. I declined them being replaced based upon my fuel pump research. Fuel pump replaced only. Between March 22nd 2024 and Oct 2 2024 (No Check Engine Lights or Emissions System Alerts) Oct 3rd both the Alert and Check Engine light came on and then went off the very next day. January 7 2025 the alert and check engine light returned and stayed on for about 10 days and then went off. Service scheduled for January 24th 2025. Fuel Injector were changed for $1148.00 as of now no further issues Vehicle Mileage 70,405. The complaint is that this is a known fuel injector problem and I don't believe that Honda did a very good job of containing the fuel injectors that were not manufactured to proper specifications as noted in the Warranty Extension for fuel injectors dated 2/11/2021 which only states certain 2017-2019 Honda Ridgelines, my guess by certain VIN #s In my opinion Honda should cover the the cost of replacing my fuel injectors. There are loads of customers out there, if you do the research, that have had the same issue as me. For reference I have attached the Warranty Extension notice.

We started experiencing hesitation with our 2019 Ridgeline. We then experienced twice the check engine light coming on but eventually clearing on its own. We took the truck to the Honda dealer from where we purchased our Ridgeline new. They mentioned there is a huge backlog on the factory recalled fuel pump, which is part of the root cause of the truck stumbling and hesitating. They additionally cited the fuel injectors as a root cause. We then discovered the repair parts are not available with no date known as to when the parts will arrive. We then checked with the only other Honda dealer in Tucson, AZ and that dealer stated the parts were not expected until December 2024 at the earliest. We then called Honda corporate office in California, and they were even less helpful than the dealerships in town. We are VERY concerned that we have a 2000 mile trip to take at the end of August when we will temporarily relocate for me to attend graduate school. Is there anything you can do to get Honda moving on acquiring the parts so we don't get stranded somewhere on our trip?
