Honda recalls:Over 187,000 Honda Ridgeline trucks recalled over rearview camera issue
BMW recall for seatbelt malfunction
BMW is recalling 3,256 of its 2024 and 2025 vehicles. In the NHTSA report, the luxury manufacturer said the seat belt system may not detect that the passengers in the vehicle are belted. As a result, the seat beat warning light will not illuminate and can cause the supplemental restraint system (SRS) to not deploy properly during a crash. When a seat belt warning light does not alert the driver that their passengers are unbelted or the SRS system fails to deploy, it can increase the risk of injury in a crash.
As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 208, "Occupant Crash Protection," the NHTSA report said.
To resolve this issue, dealers will inspect and replace the front seat lower seat belts as necessary. All services will be completely for free. Notification letters are expected to be sent on July 5. Owners may contact BMW customer service at 1-800-525-7417.

Ford recall over software error that disrupts the drive power
Ford is recalling 8,727 of its vehicles. The hybrid powertrain control module (HPCM) software may cause the vehicle to shift into neutral unexpectedly which can cause a loss of drive power. When a driver loses the ability to control the drive power, it will increase the risk of a crash, the NHTSA report said.
Mechanics will update the HPCM software for free at the dealer. Recall notification letters are expected to be sent on May 23. Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332. Ford's number for this recall is 24S33.

Honda recalls Ridgelines for rearview camera malfunction
Honda is recalling 187,290 of its 2020-2024 Ridgeline trucks. In the NHTSA report, the motor company said the rearview camera tailgate wire harness may become obsolete and break. This will prevent the rearview camera image from displaying. If a rearview camera does not display the image of the objects next to the vehicle’s rear, it can increase the risk of a crash.
As a remedy to resolve the issue, mechanics will replace the rearview camera tailgate wire harness. All services for the recalled vehicle will be completed for free. Notification letters are expected to be delivered by July 1. Owners may contact Honda service at 1-888-234-2138. Honda's number for this recall is YI7.
