Electrical Issues

[goff.m@sbcglobal.net]

I read about the fire starting in the vent of the RidgeLine and wanted to share my story. I pick up my Ridgeline this Sat I was on call so I could not drive it home off the lot, my wife drove it home for me. On Sunday she drove it to my place of employment so I could drive it home today. Well she told me when we arrived at my work the VSA light had came on I looked an yes it was on. I turned the engine off and restarted it.No Light well my first drive home the VSA light came on, Stop at dealership and they where great but the light was on no trouble code came up. Not good. Tech started the vehicle and the VSA light is on trys to get the trouble code again no code.
Dealership told me sorry but we rent you a car and we will fix this problem tomorrow but you can not drive it. There may be a loose wire behind dash that might start a fire, Hum I am a Inspector/Investigator for a local Fire dept I DO NOT WANT MY VEHICLE TO BURN I would never live it down.
I am not upset about this, as it happens I know Honda will take care of the issue plus I have waited a long time to buy this truck it could be a connection that did not get plugged in all the way. Of course I will have to explain why my new truck is at the dealership or I just take the day off and go fishing we will see what the weather holds.

Say the techs got some dirt on the interior and they agreed to clean it up. Either that or something about accessories. Did you get the tow hitch? Maybe they *forgot* to hook up the wiring harness.

It'd be tough for me to waste a day off without being able to play with my brand new truck.
