BACK OVER PREVENTION: SENSING SYSTEM: CAMERA
- The defect
- Honda (America Honda Motor Co) is recalling certain 2020-2024 Ridgeline vehicles. The rearview camera (RVC) tailgate wire harness may fatigue and break, which can prevent the rearview camera image from displaying.
- What it can cause
- A rearview camera that does not display an image can reduce the driver's rear view, increasing the risk of a crash.
- What the dealer does
- Dealers will replace the RVC tailgate wire harness, free of charge. Owner letters were mailed November 8, 2024. Owners may contact Honda service at 1-888-234-2138. Honda's number for this recall is YI7.
- NHTSA's note
- 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.
The repair is free, whatever the age or mileage of the vehicle, and whether or not you are the original owner.
Which vehicles
A recall reaches a range of VINs inside these model years, not every car built in them. Yours may not be covered even if it is listed here, and the only way to find out is NHTSA's own VIN lookup .
How this campaign compares
At 187,290 vehicles this is a bigger campaign than 95% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers model years 2020 to 2025, so the oldest vehicles on it were 4 model years old when the defect was reported to NHTSA.
Honda vehicles have been recalled over the back over prevention 6 times before this, most recently in June 2023 as 23V431000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
This site holds the complaint record for all 6 model years the campaign names. Their owners have filed 638 complaints with NHTSA, 249 of them before this campaign was filed. 32 of those name the back over prevention, the system this recall is about — a count of complaints, not of this defect. The earliest of them reached NHTSA in July 2020, 3 years before this filing.
The vehicles on this campaign carry 9 other recalls published here, the newest being: 26V365000 (structure), 26V332000 (air bags), 24V184000 (steering), 24V064000 (air bags).
Check your own car
A VIN check is the only answer for a specific vehicle, and it also shows every other open recall on it, which is usually the reason it is worth doing rather than reading one campaign.
Filed by Honda (American Honda Motor Co.) with NHTSA on May 9, 2024 as campaign 24V321000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
