2017-2019 Honda Ridgeline: Recall Alert
By Patrick Masterson
Vehicles Affected: Approximately 106,600 model-year 2017-19 Honda Ridgeline pickup trucks
The Problem: Car wash detergents containing sulfuric acid could drain from the truck bed and seep into the fuel pump's fuel-feed port. If not fully rinsed off, sulfuric acid seepage can crack the port, resulting in a pressurized fuel leak that can increase the risk of fire in the presence of an ignition source.
Honda said it has received no reports of fires, crashes or injuries related to this condition.
The Fix: Dealers will inspect and replace the fuel pump, as needed, as well as install a fuel pump cover. Both repairs will be done for free.
What Owners Should Do: Honda will begin notifying owners in early March. Owners can call the automaker at 888-234-2138, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's vehicle-safety hotline at 888-327-4236 or visit its website to check their vehicle identification number and learn more.
