What's wrong, in plain English

On some Honda Ridgeline trucks, opening and closing the tailgate can break the wiring harness that connects to the rearview camera. When this wiring breaks, the rearview camera stops working and no longer shows the driver what is behind the truck. Losing this camera view reduces the driver's visibility to the rear, which increases the chance of a crash while driving.

What you should do

1. Check your VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls to see if your truck is included.
2. Contact a Honda dealer, or call Honda customer service at 1-888-234-2138.
3. The repair is free.

Where do I find my VIN, and what do I tell the dealer?

Your VIN is the 17-character code on the lower left of the windshield, on your registration and usually on your insurance card. Enter it at nhtsa.gov/recalls to see whether this recall is still open on your car. When you call the dealer, say you have an open safety recall and give them NHTSA campaign number 22V867000.
