Service Brakes problem #1

I am having brake indicator light popup 4 time in three week with some strange noise while driving high speed on freeway. I researched found some recall on my 2022 Honda Ridgeline. Based on the provided VIN, [xxx], it appears show my 2022 Honda Ridgeline may be affected by two safety recalls: 1. Rearview camera issue: the rearview camera tailgate wire harness might break, preventing the camera image from displaying and increasing crash risk. This affects certain 2020-2024 Ridgeline vehicles. Dealers will replace the harness free of charge. Owner notifications were sent on November 8, 2024, for Honda recall number yi7. 2. Brake master cylinder issue: an improperly assembled tie rod fastener could cause the brake master cylinder to separate from the booster assembly, leading to a loss of brake function and increased crash risk. This affects certain 2020-2023 Ridgeline, I called Honda customer service reported the problems case#[xxx]. However, no action from Honda at the time. Due to public safety concern and my self I report the incident for you to review. For any question you may have please email:[xxx] information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6).

Service Brakes problem #2

Around 25,000 miles front brakes started making screeching noise with regular stopping. I am not a hard breaker. Rotors according do the dealership have developed hot spots. Honda has changed to a coated rotor which cannot be turned. I also have a 2019 Honda Ridgeline that has the non coated rotors and have had no problems with front brakes.

Service Brakes problem #3

Vehicle automatically slams on brakes, shakes steering wheel out of hands, and won't take throttle causing me to loose control of the vehicle frequently. I does it at 75 mph with no other cars within 10 miles or at 50 mph. All with no other cars within miles. My family will not ride in vehicle cause scared because of un safe technology. I do not feel safe driving this Honda vehicle with this bad technology.

Service Brakes problem #4

During cold start up (below 40 degrees) the brake pedal is extremely stiff, very difficult to depress.

Service Brakes problem #5

2022 Honda Ridgeline, problems started around 8k miles. When traveling at or above 45 mph and slowing down to a complete stop at stop sign and lights, steering wheel would shake aggressively and at times pull the truck to the left/right. Took it to dealer and they said they didn't notice anything wrong and could be "just how the truck is". Please help!.

Service Brakes problem #6

When entering a slight curve in the road, the steering wheel shakes and the dash says brake. There is always a car in the oncoming lane, but well within its lane. I only have 1000 miles on the Ridgeline, but this has happened several times. In each instance the brakes were never applied, but it is quite unnerving. There are times when the shaking (vibrating) steering wheel is more violent which makes me think that it is close to applying the brakes. I had the same issue with my 2018 accord. The dealer is aware but they say there is nothing wrong with the vehicle.
