Plain-English summary

Honda (American Honda Motor Co.) is recalling certain 2017-2019 Ridgeline trucks. The recall involves 106,683 vehicles.

The defect is located in the fuel system. Exposure to acids, such as those found in car wash soaps, can cause the fuel pump feed port to crack. A crack in this component can allow pressurized fuel to leak out, which increases the risk of a fire.

Honda will notify owners, and dealers will replace the fuel pump, if necessary, and install a fuel pump cover, free of charge. The recall began on March 14, 2019. Owners may contact Honda customer service at 1-888-234-2138 or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236.
