What it saysDealer Message - American Honda Motor Co., Inc. NHTSA’s full summary ↓

Honda filed this with NHTSA as a service bulletin dated Nov 27, 2023, received Dec 7, 2023, about the visibility/wiper. It names 7 model years (2017–2023). A service bulletin is not a safety recall: it is the manufacturer telling its dealers how to diagnose or repair a condition, and whether the work is paid for depends on the warranty in force. Quoting the number at a service desk can save a diagnosis.

Rear window cracked for no reason. Was using the defroster at the time. Entire glass panel shattered in place. Stopped at a stop light surrounded by traffic that was also stopped. Heard what sounded like an explosion. Rear window had a concave area on the inside which seemed to be the epicenter of the cracking.

My dashboard on my 2019 Honda Ridgeline is melting. It causes a glare that is reflected off of the windshield and into the drivers eyes. The Honda factory representative said they will not replace it! This vehicle is only three months old with 4302 miles on the odometer!

Common questions

Source: NHTSA, 49 CFR 579.5

Is Honda ATI&11272023901 a recall?

No. A service bulletin is a manufacturer communication filed with NHTSA under 49 CFR 579.5; a safety recall carries an NHTSA campaign number (two digits, a letter, six digits) and a federal duty to repair for free. Check the vehicle’s recalls by VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls, or on its page here.

Is the ATI&11272023901 repair free?

Not automatically. A service bulletin describes how to diagnose or repair a condition; who pays depends on the warranty in force, any extension, and the dealer. Quoting the number can save a diagnosis either way. Every Honda warranty extension on file lists the ones Honda has filed.

Which vehicles does ATI&11272023901 cover?

The manufacturer filed it against 7 model years: 2023 Honda Ridgeline, 2022 Honda Ridgeline, 2021 Honda Ridgeline, 2020 Honda Ridgeline, 2019 Honda Ridgeline, 2018 Honda Ridgeline and more. Whether one particular vehicle is affected is a matter of its VIN and its build, not its model year alone.
