2019 Honda Ridgeline Brakes Problems

“Driving at about 55 MPH, my 2019 Honda Ridgeline's airbags didn't deploy when I hit a 2015 ford focus that failed to yield the right of way and cut infront of me. Honda sensing's collision mitigation braking system and forward collision warning failed to alert me and failed to stop my vehicle either.”

“Honda Ridgeline, 2019, Honda sensing, was turning into a parking spot in front of a bldg, 1/2 way in, the sensing, sensed something? The big yellow light comes on the dash with the words brake , truck comes to a complete halt, I was slightly jerked forward, the truck was at a complete stop, 1/2 in 1/2 out or parking spot, diagonally, my hands on the wheel, I then just lightly touched the gas petal to move forward and park, but the truck resumed to full speed and ran me into the wall, about 15 feet in front of me. …”

“The brake pedal goes to the floor and requires pumping to restore to half way. This is extremely dangerous when driving in snowy conditions and the dealer states this is normal for Honda ridgelines. The vehicle will not stop without pumping the brakes when driving on the highway.”

“My Ridgeline brakes provide a firm solid brake action with very little pedal travel when the temp is below 70 but after warmup, both vehicle and outside air temp warms to plus 70 degrees, the brakes turn into mushy soft and extremely long pedal travel. The Honda accord, civic, odyssey, and crv do not do this. The entry-level accord has most of the same systems that the rl has. No matter what trim level you have, 2wd or awd, when temps rise above 70 the brakes are frustrating poor to horrible. …”

“While driving with the cruise control set at 52mph, I was coming to a known left curve with a stop sign four way intersection that follows it (I drive this route at least 50% of the time whenever leaving my home). I hit the 'Cancel' button to stop the cruise control as I came to the curve, and there was no response. I hit the brakes and again there was no response. At that point I prepared for a wreck because I knew the curve was tight, followed by that intersection's stop sign, and I was almost upon the curve. …”
