Rearview System Braking problems of the 2020 Honda Ridgeline

Scheduled my vehicle for recall related to the tailgate/camera/rear area warning system harness replacement for today 10-15-2024 after two notices. Upon arriving for my appointment, I learned that the dealer, voyles Honda marietta, GA does not have the parts, nor can they provide a time/date when parts would be available. Further, the service manager, marvin, said the same parts issue is present with a fuel pump and electric steering campaign currently released. From prior involvement with many heavy truck campaign recalls, I know the o. E. M. Is required to have adequate repair parts to satisfy the released safety recall. In the previously noted Honda recalls this requirement is ignored by the manufacturer placing safety concern on the public, stressing dealers, and forcing vehicle owners to operate defective vehicles because parts to repair are not available, nor is there an expected date when they will be. Responses like “on manufacturer back order “ is not acceptable for a released national safety recall. Honda corporate needs to be held accountable and owners need to be compensated for their inconvenience. Maybe restrict Honda from selling more vehicles until all safety campaigns are completed. Nhtsa, check your records on Honda’s completion performance and take appropriate actions.

Back up camera no longer works, all black when in reverse.

Rear view camera and rear traffic and warning systems stopped working. Honda diagnosed and repaired the wiring harness. Nhtsa has opened an investigation pe24004 which appears to identical to the issue we have.

At odometer reading 35870, while loading the pickup for a trip home the backup camera failed. No local dealership was open on the weekend and we were 600 miles from home. Upon arrival, Monday, the local dealership was called and we were told the repair would not be covered by warranty and a similar recall on 2019 vehicles would not apply to 2020 model year for the same issue.
