Legally reviewed by: Jessica Anvar Stotz, JD, MBA

Is your Honda Ridgeline’s backup camera not working? It could be included in a new recall announced in May 2024. Honda has released a recall for more than 187,000 Ridgeline trucks (2020-2024) due to a potential issue with the backup camera failing to display anything.

The backup camera issue is caused by a defective wiring harness in the vehicle’s tailgate. Water and salt intrusion can cause damage to an improperly insulated wiring harness.

Recurring tailgate opening and closing can eventually wear out the harness, breaking the backup camera’s connection to the car’s display and rendering the rearview image inoperable.

When the harness fails, the backup camera image will no longer be visible on the vehicle’s screen. A glitchy backup camera can pose a major safety risk, particularly during reverse maneuvers. Collisions and injuries are more likely when the camera does not provide a clear view.

If you’ve had multiple repairs for Honda Ridgeline backup camera issues, you may be eligible for a lemon law claim. Consult with a lawyer to discuss your options for a refund or cash compensation.

Here’s what’s not included in the 2024 Honda Ridgeline Backup Camera Recall

Honda previously recalled older Ridgeline models for a similar problem (2017–2019). Honda is recalling certain 2020 to 2024 Ridgeline pickups after it discovered that opening and shutting the tailgate can compromise a wiring cable, damaging the rearview camera.

This action includes 187,290 Ridgeline trucks. If you own a 2020-2024 Honda Ridgeline, we strongly advise you to contact your nearest Honda service center to see if your vehicle is subject to this recall.

Is there a Fix for the Honda Ridgeline Backup Camera Problem?

As a possible fix, Honda dealerships will replace the defective harness with an upgraded version, at no cost to consumers. Ridgelines from model years 2020-24 are among the vehicles affected. Affected Ridgeline owners will receive notifications about the recall starting on May 10th and will be instructed to visit their local Honda dealership for the necessary repair.

To check if your vehicle is affected, you can enter your car’s 17-digit vehicle identification number (VIN) on the NHTSA’s recall website. We highly recommend checking back on a regular basis to see if your vehicle has been included in any recent recalls.
