2008 Honda Ridgeline Fuel system Problems

“I delivered my vehicle to a Honda dealership in July 2025. They inspected the vehicle and agreed to replace the fuel tank. Since then, I have been receiving notifications that the fuel tank is back ordered with no ETA. I am continuing to pay insurance registration for this vehicle and I’m unable to use it. I would suggest that at this point Honda needs to buy it back.”

I called a mechanic and asked him as to what it meant and he said its okay, my vehicle is doing the same thing. …”
