Summary
On February 7, 2022, the Office of Defects Investigation (ODI) opened Preliminary Evaluation (PE22-001) to assess alleged failures of the rear-view camera (RVC) in 2017-2018 Model Year Honda Ridgeline vehicles. At this time, ODI has received a total of 107 complaints with allegations of the RVC image failing to display when the vehicle was in reverse.The RVC wire harness is manufactured with a protective corrugated tubing and harness guide to help mitigate stress on the RVC wire harness when the tailgate was opened and closed. Honda determined the length of corrugated tubing inserted into the harness guide was insufficient to provide optimal protection for the wire harness. This lack of protection for RVC wire harness led to severe wire harness damage that ultimately led to the failure of the RVC image to display due to a lack of connectivity.On November 23, 2022, Honda filed a defect information report recalling all 2017-2019MY Honda Ridgeline vehicles. The dealer will replace the RVC tailgate harness with an improved wire harness that has longer corrugated tubing to protect the wire harness.In view of the recall action being taken by Honda, 22V-867, ODI is closing this Preliminary Evaluation. NHTSA reserves the right to take additional action if warranted by future circumstances. The ODI reports cited above are available to review at NHTSA.gov under the following ODI identification numbers:11206191, 11298458, 11319870, 11329993, 11341373, 11343035, 11343035, 11343441, 11350026, 11350162, 11361959, 11362378, 11362758, 11363268, 11372604, 11373525, 11374112, 11388328, 11395026, 11397565, 11397936, 11398930, 11399178, 11400366, 11403360, 11403368, 11404149, 11408414, 11413184, 11415248, 11415847, 11417394, 11419669, 11420068, 11422394, 11422938, 11428514, 11431246, 11437880, 11438172, 11440548, 11441551, 11443328, 11447502, 11448600, 11449291, 11450413, 11451727, 11451728, 11451753, 11451793, 11451847, 11451959, 11452077, 11452433, 11452769, 11453044, 11453189, 11453403, 11453442, 11453622, 11455106, 11456922, 11456929, 11457013, 11457158, 11457908, 11458258, 11458430, 11458861, 11459046, 11459437, 11459517, 11460875, 11461017, 11461047, 11461083, 11461652, 11462082, 11462401, 11462703, 11464525, 11464749, 11465214, 11466731, 11466931, 11470232, 11470656, 11470768, 11471427, 11471889, 11471950, 11472343, 11472927, 11473801, 11473970, 11476348, 11479379, 11479629, 11480475, 11482614, 11484718, 11485708, 11485720, 11485774, 11485930, 11486546
