I washed my Ridgeline yesterday, I noticed that the right lower quarter paned appeared loosed when compared to the left side. has anyone else noticed this on their Ridgelines. Is this easily fixed, or does the dealer need to do this. :confused:

yup, same thing here, just doesn't look flush with the other
yes i noticed it also. My wife says this is my foo foo truck and is not very tuff. :( I would ask the dealer to look at it .but I had them do one body repair and they made it even worse and thought I would be ok with it.They ended up replaceing the panel that the top brake light sits in but it was bother to have to go back three times to the dealer get it right. I personally will live with this because the mechanics are idiots and dont take pride in thier work. If I have offended any mechanic,sorry ..but I was an ASE certified mechanic for 10 years and never turned out the work these idiots try .

It all boils down to trying to do a 1 book hour job in 30 minutes. Beat the book is about all that matters.
rtboy1961 I agree with you, I can live with this also. Hopefully it will not get any looser.
My truck took a hit in the right rear quarter panel, it popped the panel out were it joins the upper sheet metal.
It looks to be held in place by notches molded into the lower panel. I just smacked mine with the palm of my hand and it popped back into place.

Try spanking yours, I think it may like it.

May try that out of frustration, but I do not whant to get her Kinky by slapping her butt too often
