Vehicles Affected: Approximately 9,200 model-year 2017 Honda Ridgeline pickup trucks manufactured between April 1 and Aug. 11, 2016 and equipped with all-wheel drive

The Problem: Water entering the rear wiring harness through the connector located under the truck-bed drain hole could cause the connection terminals to corrode, possibly increasing electrical resistance. If this happens, the  vehicle stability assist system could unexpectedly activate, increasing the risk of a crash.

The Fix: Dealers will inspect the rear wiring harness and related components, replacing them as necessary for free.

What Owners Should Do: Honda will begin notifying owners on Jan. 24. Owners can call the automaker at 888-234-2138 or the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration’s vehicle-safety hotline at 888-327-4236, or go to www.safercar.gov for more info.

I joined the automotive industry in 2016 as a lifelong car enthusiast and have achieved the rare feat of applying my journalism and media arts degrees as a writer, fact-checker, proofreader and editor my entire professional career, which has somehow been more than a decade solely at Cars.com and currently as Chief Copy Editor. I live by an in-house version of the AP stylebook and know where the semicolons can go, which you can occasionally find updated proof of in the stories
