Known issues on the 2010 Ridgeline. Ten recalls are on federal record for this model year, and eight of them trace back to Takata frontal airbag inflators, on the driver side and the passenger side, that can rupture under prolonged heat and humidity exposure and throw metal fragments at occupants in a crash. A separate recall covers the accelerator pedal assembly, where a binding pivot can keep the engine from returning to idle once the driver releases the pedal. The last covers frame corrosion from road salt exposure at the fuel tank mounting bands, which can let the tank detach and leak fuel near an ignition source. Owners have filed 42 complaints for the year. The factory diagnostic and repair procedures behind each of those systems are here.

Whether you're servicing an airbag module, inspecting the accelerator pedal linkage, or checking the frame and fuel tank mounts for corrosion, it keeps you on the OEM procedure and the correct specification for your specific 2010 Ridgeline.
