The Honda dealership on 9/03/2026 executed a federal safety recall negligently and punctured my gas tank, creating an immediate fire hazard. The dealership performed the safety recall on 09/03/2026. I went to get my receipt from the lady at the front desk and she handed it to me, no one mentioned anything about what was done to the truck. As soon as I got into the vehicle the tighten gas cap showed in the dash, it has never said that before this day and time. I called a mechanic and asked him as to what it meant and he said its okay, my vehicle is doing the same thing. So I drove it 30 plus miles back home. Last night I went to the gas pumps to get gasoline and it poured out into the parking lot, and all over the place. The recall was safety recalled 2006-2014 Ridgeline rear frame repaired they checked the VIN and repaired it.

I am filing this complaint regarding our 2008 Honda Ridgeline, VIN [xxx], approximately 129,000 miles, concerning NHTSA recall 22v-430 / Honda campaign lcd. The vehicle has spent its life in [xxx], and Honda's VIN lookup showed this recall open/incomplete. We experienced fuel leaking while fueling, and a piece of severely corroded metal associated with supporting/securing the fuel tank fell from the vehicle. An independent mechanic found extensive rear frame corrosion at the fuel-tank mounting area and stated there was no longer sufficient structure to properly secure the tank. The mechanic also observed the inadequately supported fuel tank rubbing/contacting the driveshaft and advised us of the Honda recall. Due to these safety conditions, we did not drive it further. It was towed to [xxx]'s friendly Honda, [xxx], for the open recall. On xxx, the dealer called after inspection and stated it submitted photographs to Honda/american Honda. We were informed the vehicle failed the safety recall inspection, could not be repaired under the recall, and Honda would have to buy it back. Honda has not provided a written repurchase offer or valuation methodology. We are filing this so NHTSA has a record of an actual failure associated with recall 22v-430: severe frame corrosion/perforation, loss of fuel-tank support, tank/driveshaft contact, and fuel leakage. We request NHTSA document this incident and Honda's repurchase handling. We have photographs, recall records, mechanic/dealer information, towing records and the recorded call available. Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6).
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.
Hello, I own a 2008 Honda Ridgeline. The vehicle’s rear frame is corrode after exposure to road salt. The fuel tank might detach from the truck and cause a fire. I checked open recalls and nothing is currently open. I’m afraid of driving the vehicle due to this issue. Thank you.
While driving over railroad tracks, heard a huge thump, then scraping coming from underneath of carriage near rear seats. Today, when driving, I smelled gasoline when I opened the car door. Looked underneath carriage and a huge piece of metal has fallen down and my gas tank is pouring out gasoline onto the concrete. I had a full tank of gas in the car. There is gasoline dripping and pouring out of the undercarriage and is all over the undercarriage and the concrete driveway where I parked.
