NHTSA Complaint #11181420 — 2017 HONDA RIDGELINE

WHILE APPROACHING A RED LIGHT, I APPLIED THE BRAKES NORMALLY. THE REAR BRAKES SUDDENLY LOCKED AND I SKIDDED ABOUT 2 FEET ON WET PAVEMENT, NARROWLY MISSING A REAR END COLLISION WITH THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME. A DASHBOARD WARNING LIGHT FLASHED BUT WENT OFF SO QUICKLY I COULDN'T IDENTIFY WHICH ONE IT WAS. FROM THE LOCATION ,I BELIEVE IT WAS EITHER THE ABS OR VSA WARNING LIGHT. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO MY LOCAL DEALER, BUT THEY WERE UNABLE TO FIND AN ISSUE OR RECREATE THE PROBLEM. "CUSTOMER STATES BRAKES LOCKED UP AND WARNING LIGHT CAME ON THE DASH. COULD NOT REPRODUCE CONCERN AT THIS TIME. NO CODES STORED IN PCM OR BRAKING SYSTEM." AS YET THE PROBLEM HAS NOT RECURRED. HOWEVER, WHEN I RESEARCHED THE PROBLEM ONLINE, I FOUND NHSTA RECALL REPORT 16V-888 WHICH DESCRIBED THE PROBLEM EXACTLY AS IT OCCURRED, BUT DID NOT INCLUDE MY VIN IN THE RECALL.
