Known issues on the 2017 Ridgeline. Nine recalls are on federal record for this model year. A cracked fuel pump feed port can let pressurized fuel leak out and raise the risk of fire, and separately a failing in-tank fuel pump can stall the engine while driving. Corrosion in the rear wiring harness can unexpectedly trigger the vehicle stability assist system. A damaged hood latch striker can let the hood open while driving and block the driver's view, and a broken rearview camera wiring harness can knock out rear visibility. A manufacturing error in the connecting rod bearing can cause it to wear and seize, damaging the engine. A cracked front passenger occupant-classification sensor can short circuit and deploy the air bag unintentionally, and rear subframe corrosion at the suspension mounting points can lead to rear suspension failure and loss of control. A recalled Genuine Accessory tonneau cover can also separate from the vehicle in wind and become a road hazard. Owners have filed 337 complaints for the year, and no technical service bulletins are logged for the 2017 Ridgeline. The factory diagnostic and repair procedures behind each of those systems are here.
From tracing a wiring-harness fault to a fuel pump replacement or a rear subframe inspection, it keeps you on the OEM procedure and the correct specification for your specific 2017 Ridgeline.
