Honda<\/a> is recalling up to 7,600 Ridgeline<\/a> pickups from the 2006 and 2007 model years over possible HVAC issues. According to Honda and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, a harness connector above the passenger-side footwell is susceptible to being kicked by exuberant passengers. The blows can cause the connector terminal to overheat, which in turn can cause all sorts of other issues, like a short-circuit and\/or fire. <\/p>\n If you own one of these unibody pickups, your local Honda dealer will remedy the issue free of charge by inspecting the wiring, replacing it if necessary, and fitting a protective cover to deflect the possibility of future passenger kicks. More info on the recall in the notice after the jump.<\/p>\n [Source: The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration<\/a>]<\/p>\n Continue reading Honda recalls 2006-2007 Ridgeline because your passenger might have a dangerous kick?<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n Honda recalls 2006-2007 Ridgeline because your passenger might have a dangerous kick?<\/a> originally appeared on Autoblog<\/a> on Wed, 13 Jan 2010 10:59:00 EST.
