5 common questions answered
NHTSA’s three reported recalls address distinct safety concerns. An unsecured Honda Genuine Accessory Tonneau Cover may buckle in wind, deform its hinges, and allow a rear panel to separate into a road hazard. A cracked fuel pump feed port may leak pressurized fuel and increase fire risk. On certain AWD trucks, water intrusion can corrode the rear wiring harness and unexpectedly activate vehicle stability assist, increasing crash risk. Because these conditions may not be obvious during everyday driving, waiting can leave a known concern unresolved. A VIN check identifies whether your Ridgeline needs the manufacturer’s free remedy.
