Honda (American Honda Motor Co.) is recalling certain 2017-2019 Ridgeline vehicles. For this Honda Ridgeline recall, opening and closing the tailgate may break the rearview camera wiring harness, causing the rearview camera to fail.

 

An inoperative rearview camera can reduce the driver’s rear visibility, increasing the risk of a crash.

 

Dealers will replace the rearview camera wiring harness, free of charge. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed January 16, 2023. Owners may contact Honda’s customer service at 1-888-234-2138. Honda’s number for this recall is 6RW.

 

We have previously reported on [a bizarre recall](<https://pickuptrucktalk.com/2019/02/honda-ridgeline-recall-car-wash-soap-crack-fuel-pump/>) of the 2017-2019 Ridgeline that involved car wash soap. The 2017 HOnda Ridgeline currently has [five recalls](<https://www.nhtsa.gov/vehicle/2017/HONDA/RIDGELINE/PU%25252FCC/FWD#recalls>). If you own a 2017-2019 Honda Ridgeline, be sure to consult the [NHTSA recalls portion of the website](<https://www.nhtsa.gov/recalls>) and type in the specific VIN of your SUV to see if this current recall applies to your vehicle.

 

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to [www.nhtsa.gov](<http://www.nhtsa.gov>).
