What's recalled

Component: Visibility (rearview mirrors/devices, exterior)

Honda (American Honda Motor Co) is recalling certain 2020-2021 Pilot and Ridgeline, and 2020-2022 Passport and Odyssey vehicles. The heating pads behind both side-view mirrors may not be bonded properly, allowing the mirror glass to detach. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 111, "Rear Visibility."

The risk

Detached mirror glass can reduce driver visibility, increasing the risk of a crash.

The remedy and its status

Dealers will replace both left and right side-view mirrors, free of charge. Owner letters were mailed January 17, 2024. Owners may contact Honda customer service at 1-888-234-2138. Honda's number for this recall is FE5.

Status: NHTSA lists Jan 17, 2024 as the owner-notification date for this campaign.

Honda recall number FE5

NHTSA lists the manufacturer's own recall number for 23V174000 as FE5. Owner letters and dealer service departments often use this code, so a search for "FE5 recall" refers to the same campaign.

Affected models and years

Models and model years NHTSA lists for this campaign. Not every vehicle of a listed model and year is included; check by VIN.
