Used 2019 Honda Ridgeline Consumer Reviews
Not Enough Room Inside
I was seriously considering going back to a truck and looked at the Ridgelines. I am a Honda Fan and absolutely love my accord coupe. I purchased the accord Coupe in 2013 over the mustang because it offered more leg room for a man over 6 foot tall with long legs. After sitting in the new Ridgeline and taking it for a test drive it felt cramped even with the drivers seat as far back as possible. Honda hit the mark when it comes to a truck for someone who doesn't need a full size pickup and handles extremely well but this vehicle is just not suitable for a tall long legged person over 6 feet in height. If Honda makes the changes then I will definitely get one of these vehicles.
Required 100,000 mile maintenance issues
The reason I just gave it a 4 star is that the engine has a rubber timing belt. If an owner would go beyond the 100,000 mile required and or recommended replacement of the belt and it would fail,then there could be catastrophic engine failure. The water pump ,idler arm ,and I suppose the thermostat and coolant are replaced then as well.

Big truck feel
I have owned GMC 1500 and 2500 for the past 25 years. This has more features and holds the road better. The storage space or cooler in the bed is an awesome feature. Love all the other standard options Honda offers in this vehicle. Where has this been hiding all these years.

2019 Honda Ridgeline RTL
The ride was smooth. The gear shift was smooth. The seat was comfortable.
Seats No
"Honda, listen up not everyone is 6 ft. tall". Drivers seat is probably the worst part of truck. Back end of seat sits to deep which raises your knees higher than a normal truck. This creates leg numbness because of poor circulation. If you are of short stature, I'm under 5' 6" tall, it creates issue for your legs when driving. I fiddled with this several times and I did some research and I am not the only one with this problem, also it seems to be only on the trucks the other Honda vehicles I have are fine. I bought certified used 2019. So it's not bad truck, smooth ride, doesn't kill you on bumpy roads but it is loud does not have enough noise suppression insulation around the body. Also I had to take it back to dealer get stereo looked 3x in last 9 months. Mine has the "right lane view on screen" when right turn signal lights are on but sometimes screen goes completely black. So I fiddle with it until screen comes back on. Another issue is the back doors open maybe 30% max and it's hard to get items in back passenger side. There is an after market item you can buy but I have yet to do so. I don't know what Honda engineers were thinking when decided to build back doors like this. I've owned trucks all my life and I bought this one certified used and on a scale of 1/10 I would give it a 7.5 only because of the drivers seat and back doors not opening enough.
