The Honda dealer in Simi Valley CA wouldn't sell me a Ridgeline black due to the stop sale. I'm older and the Ridgeline is perfect for me and I owned one before. Today i called the Honda dealer in Valencia CA and they said the Ridgeline blacks were not included in the recall. I have the sonic grey ridgeline black in my driveway tonight and am so happy. I have a new blue F250 diesel 4x4 that will go up for sale shortly. It's way too much truck for me to drive around town and commute to work. It does look awesome and get a lot of comments. Good luck to you all. It looks like there are both ridgeline haters and lovers.
This recall only effects the Ridgelines that were already on dealer lots when the recall was announced. I just bought a new Ridgeline right off the truck last week that already had the recall taken care of at the factory. There were 6 new models however on the lot with stop sales on them. I watched two other customers also purchase Ridgelines while I was making the deal on mine, so they are still selling at least here in central PA. Sticker on my Trailsport was $46k and some change got it for $2500 under MSRP and with Honda finance 1.9% 36mo deal. I'm pleased in today's market with that deal. Oh yeah, the dealer did try to add a $995 wax job and $250 splash guards which were easily removed during negotiations.
I'm picking up my Black Edition this weekend. I'm so excited! I haven't even seen it yet, as it was still at the port when I bought it. You're right: the new ones have the updated harness.
I feel, as a country... we're so "over dramatic" about some things and quick to try and make a big deal out of something that doesn't necessarily need to be...😞 it's sad the (negative) finds its way into things. Just as ALLLL of you Ridgeline owners have JUST stated, yours are fine, you're happy, and moving on with life to enjoy your new beautiful trucks. 👏😉👌
Yes Honda is selling these trucks wheee I am too also every time a truck comes in it’s sold I am going to buy a new also in the next few weeks Can someone tell me how they fine these trucks are they good
The stop sale order is done. They are selling these with a waiver - if the camera works it gets sold. Personally I find it's a non-issue. I'm waiting until the camera quits working before one of these lube jockeys disassembles the whole rear bumper and tailgate of my truck and breaks all the clips.
@@milfordcivic6755 it still going strong. I had a long discussion about it with the lead master tech at the dealership, he’s in charge of fixing the issues. There’s some waivers considered but they don’t go through and could void warranty care in the future for those customers who purchase one.

I've driven 50 years without a backup camera. The reason these auto prices are skyrocketing is these manufacturers feel compelled to keep adding all this electronic and computer stuff that is definitely not required to get from point a to b. 😂 Love my 21 Ridgeline btw. Great vehicle.
Great truck and in today's world, at one time or another, they're all going to have a recall notice, just to CYA. I'd buy this over any midsize truck out there and it'll also last 300k miles with minimal repairs when doing the scheduled maintenance. If you're not rock crawling, this truck will handle mild two tracks and be more than most truck owners need for family doings.
I added a 3 1/2 inch lift and a 1-inch subframe drop and increased the spring rate up to 800 lb per square inch and put a fantastic tune m1 camper on it. Truck handles it beautifully and really looks fantastic
@@revnation_auto The lift & sub frame drop are by TRAXDA, now adding their front axel relocation kit to move the wheel a little forward so I can use 32.6in tires with quality light weight off road wheels.

Even if there wasn't a stop sale, having a defective wiring harness and potentially non-functioning backup camera, and the potential for a crash or hitting something could be a liability in our lawsuit-mad society. Yes, I wish our vehicles had fewer safety mandates... makes costs of buying one out of sight!
@@ronkemperful I get it but I just can’t help but think that 10 years ago, a backup camera was an option. I own 3 vehicles without them, I don’t go around hitting people. I feel like a standard recall would have been sufficient.

That’s the general public wanting all the latest and greatest but don’t want to pay when they break. I own an 06 and an 18 accord and I find at times the simplicity of the 06 refreshing
@@geraldthompson4633 Absolutely! Give me manual seats, roll up windows, a simple radio or no radio, a manual transmission with a clutch, cloth seats... then perhaps I might be interested in buying a new car.
The Ridgeline is by far the best pickup on the market. It's the Goldilocks of trucks... Not too big, not too small but sized to do what 95% of all truck owners need. It hauls 4x8 sheets of building material flat in the bed. And let's be honest, nobody takes a $50k new truck off road. That is reserved for owner 2 or 3.
I almost bought a new ridgeline but decided to go with a Ranger. Ranger was cheaper even with the FX4 package at $42230 as of June 2024. The Ridgeline is a good option though.
I just bought a 2024 honda trailsport ridgline they did tell me that they had a recall on camera harness. But the sold it to me just the same. So far I've had no issues.
I bought mine a week before the recall was issued. No issues here either. Then again, I only open my tailgate once a week to load and unload groceries.
I just bought a 2024 trailsport two weeks ago. It's only on certain models that has the stop sale until the part can be ordered. Once It can be ordered it can be purchased even if the part hasn't arrived yet.
I love my 2023 rtl in metallic Steel! Such a great fide, roomy interior and back seats can fit 3 people plus plenty of leg room and should room! Try to that comfort in a tacoma, frontier. Or Ranger.
I was able to purchase one that was manufactured after the stop sale was issued. they fixed the issue in production - I looked at the harness and it appears they routed the wires much better in that problem area
That’s good, I know they are having supply chain issues with the harnesses so there’s a lot of folks waiting around. Many dealers aren’t going to risk selling them.
I don't agree with the stop sale because the wiring harness doesn't wear out right away, it requires some years of salt corrosion and other environmental factors to fail. I have a 2023 waiting on a wiring harness and would just like to get it done, but there is no urgency other than to clear my HondaLink app of a recall warning. Plus, with Toyota Tacomas having massive transmission and differential problems out of the gate, it would be nice if buyers could opt for a Ridgeline if they don't need the off-road capabilities of Toyotas.
@@tomhockman6267 I also don’t agree with it. Like I said in the video, all for it when there’s true safety issues but a backup camera possibly malfunctioning, come on..
Just a guess but the backup camera being made mandatory was most likely from thousands of children being run over. Besides many people have issues or problems backing up. Almost like a phobia not sure but as i got older i have heard of a few that wouldn't even attempt to backup and park in areas they could go forward. Even at the cost of walking across the parking lot. If Honda dealerships are similar to most dealerships, once it hits the lot its sold the dealership owns it. I'm grateful to see recalls. The manufacturer are attempting to fix a defect more importantly they are admitting instead of sweeping it under the rug. Seeing this is a safery issue most likely was instituted by the federal government. Like i posted I'm glad to see recalls because no one is perfect, so how can a mass produced car be? Just fix them. Hopefully a fix will be quickly available and this will be a non or forgotten issue. There are a lot more other issues that need changed or improved on the Ridgeline.
They don’t have the parts to support a mass recall. They are sending 1-2 like that so they can sell inventory under a waiver, not take care of those who’ve bought them already.
totally agree with the stop sale. I'm interested in the ridgelines and wouldn't want a defective one that will give me trouble in the future. nor do I want to have to worry about taking it in later for the recall work. most likely be additional recall work in the future, as in most new vehicles. fix it asap, then put em back on the market
People need to stop telling others how to spend their money. You can't take it with you. What's the point of working and saving if you cannot enjoy the fruits of your labor.
Honda Canada has the highest financing (7.69% from 12-84 months) on 2024 Ridgelines. I would buy one tomorrow if rates were below 5%. I don't understand why Honda is offering 5.99% financing rate on the 2025 Pilots but are sticking with 7.69% on current model year ridgelines. I rarely see new ones on the road and guessing the big reason is current rates.
Forget the sticker prices .. Honda dealers are always dealing on the Ridgeline .. even last summer.. I got an easy $3000 off sticker price on my Sonic Gray RTL .. plus 2.9% for 5 years .. and extra $1000 off if you own a later model car brand from several manufactures - I owned a 17 Hyundai and got the extra grand off. Ridgeline aren't overpriced for what you get.. considering all discounts.
I'm still rolling my 2008 Ridgeline, 1st generation was best. No backup cameras needed kids. It's only got 105K miles so it should go a few more years. Never gets stuck, always starts. Honda = Quality.
There are 3 colors that are $455 extra. They are special runs on the production line that cost more money and changeover time for the small amount that are produced. The rest of the colors that aren't extra are basic colors like black, white and gray that generally sell in higher numbers and cheaper paint to purchase. I'm glad I got the Diffused Sky Pearl - nobody else on the road in my area has one that i've seen.
If it's not safe to allow people to buy and drive the new ones .. how about the owners with 2023 models who are driving them everyday , like me !!! The stop sale don't make sense .. if it was that serious they would make all he current owners of these park them and give them , us free rental cars until parts come in. I myself never had any problems with my back up camera since I bought my 2023 model last summer.
It’s not selling because it’s ugly and it’s too expensive. It looks like a car truck but it cost like 40,000 and over is ridiculous. For that price, I rather have a bigger truck with a bigger radio screen like Tesla and bigger trunk bed like all of Ford trucks.
Everyone has stop sales…when everyone realizes anything made by man will fail,y’all can relax and quit tripping…statistically, Honda still puts them together better than their domestic counterparts…and I hope no is believing that JD Powers trash reports…btw, I’ve only worked this industry 31yrs both foreign and domestic and owned both
Yep. Manufacturing will always have an acceptable amount of defects that get let out the door. Anyone who's familiar with Lean manufacturing and the Toyota manufacturing system knows it's impossible to make something perfect, especially when suppliers make the parts. Remember, waste on the manufacturing line is something the customer is not willing to pay for - the customer isn't going to pay more for the product because it had more inspections on the line.
A used full size truck does not come with a warranty or piece of mind that no major maintenance is due. With a used vehicle, you never know what you're buying or how it was used.
@aclock, it isn't a truck, it is a mid-sized pickup made in the USA, more, probably much more than what you drive. Most likely can haul as much or more than what you drive/own. It will out most everything on the road in adverse weather; Rain, slush, snow, hail, mud. Has a roomy, spacious cab/interior, a comfortable ride, will pull a family sized boat, a two horse trailer/with horses, a camper. Rarely breaks down, 22 mpg City, 26 Highway, has outstanding resale/trade-in value, nothing like it. 5 of them in my family, driving with a big grin on their faces. btw; we have all owned/driven large pickups “TRUCKS” in the past as well as other mid sized pickups “TRUCKS..”

Rarely breaks down, 22 mpg City, 26 Highway, has outstanding resale/trade-in value, nothing like it. 5 of them in my family, driving with a big grin on their faces. btw; we have all owned/driven large pickups “TRUCKS” in the past as well as other mid sized pickups “TRUCKS..”
@@ChesterSm-ge1hb Well said! Must be still driving his dad's 83 rusted out pickup truck. It most certainly is a TRUCK. A TRUCK THAT HAS A SPECIFIC PURPOSE! Time to come into the 21st century aclock, even if you can't afford a new TRUCK!!
@@587G I traded in a 2015 GMC Sierra 4X4 pickup “TRUCK,” fairly close to the 21st century by my math, you will never achieve my lifestyle, eat your heart out.
I consider it a truck. A few things I’d like to see improved are more ground clearance, better audio, best seats on sport model, deeper bed, hybrid power train option that got 30+mpg.
Make more mavericks
That’s a great little pickup. I’ve owned 4 of them haha
@@revnation_auto can I borrow one lol
You can keep your turbo head gasket failures.
@@milfordcivic6755 I don't like turbo anymore
Honda Ridgeline = fancy El Camino.
I love the EL Camino
= Your opinion. El Caminos didn't have AWD
@@milfordcivic6755 What else would it be besides my opinion?
