Buying a used 2023 Honda Ridgeline? Check these 5 recalls first

5 NHTSA recalls · 133 owner complaints on file

The 2023 Ridgeline has 5 recalls involving brake master cylinder separation, a steering gearbox that can loosen, rearview camera image loss, unintended passenger airbag deployment, and rear subframe corrosion. Its 133 NHTSA owner complaints are unverified reports, with exterior lighting accounting for 39, engine concerns 22, and electrical issues 19. Steering attachment and braking recall records deserve close review, while lighting and engine history remain separate inspection topics beyond confirming recall completion.

Before you buy

1. Get the 17-character VIN from the seller and run it at nhtsa.gov/recalls. It shows which recalls are still unrepaired on that exact car.
2. Verify steering gearbox and brake master cylinder recall repairs.
3. Confirm camera, passenger airbag, and rear subframe recall completion.
4. Check exterior lights and review engine and electrical repair history.
5. Open recalls are repaired free at any Honda dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
