2011–2012 Honda Ridgeline recall: tires

⚠️ What's wrong

Honda is recalling certain model year 2011-2012 Ridgeline vehicles manufactured from august 25, 2011, through november 29, 2011. The spare tire installed in affected vehicles may not match the information on the vehicle’s tire information placard. Therefore, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 110, “tire selection and rims for motor vehicle.”

💥 The risk

An incorrect label could lead to improper tire inflation which could result in a tire failure, increasing the risk of a crash.

🔧 The fix

Honda will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the spare tire and if necessary, exchange the spare tire assembly or replace the tire information placard free of charge. The safety recall began on february 10, 2012. Owners may contact honda at 1-800-999-1009.

Is the fix free? Yes. Safety recall repairs are free at any authorized dealer under federal law, including parts and labor. (Vehicles more than 15 years old when the recall was announced can be excluded, but most manufacturers still fix them.)
