The American register
The European register
- EU Safety Gate alert A12/0022/16: Honda Accord, Civic, Cr-V, Element, MDX, Odyssey, Pilot, Ridgeline, notified by Germany
- EU Safety Gate alert A12/0474/16: Honda Fr-V, Civic Hybrid, Jazz, Jazz Hybrid, Legend, Cr-V And Ridgeline, notified by United Kingdom
- EU Safety Gate alert A12/0970/16: Honda Accord, Civic, Cr-V, Element, Legend, Odyssey, Pilot, Ridgeline, notified by Cyprus
Nothing here says any of these is this notice in another country. A model recalled in one country is often recalled in another, in different words and at a different time, and the authorities do not cross-reference each other. Reading them together is the reason this site holds more than one register.

The dealer-installed accessory trailer wiring harness includes a circuit to provide for back-up lights, if present on a trailer, to illuminate when the transmission is shifted into reverse gear. When installed, and the ignition key is turned to the accessory position, the electronic display in the instrument panel indicates the actual position of the gearshift selector and also illuminates the reverse position indicator. If the reverse position is selected only the reverse position indicator will be lighted. The actual function of the transmission and that of the trailer lights will not be affected. When the ignition switch is in the accessory position the engine will always be off and the gearshift cannot be moved from the PARK position. Correction: Since this does not pose any safety risk, no corrective action is required.
The wording above is the department's own, as it stood in the monthly file this site last read. Vehicle counts are the sum of the counts published for each make and model the recall covers. To act on a recall, use the official notice: Transport Canada recall 2006067.

Reading this against the source
This page is what Transport Canada published in the Vehicle Recalls Database, kept as it was read. The authority publishes only its current wording; if a notice is rewritten, the earlier version disappears there and is kept here. The whole register is at /canada, and how the reading is done is set out in the method.
What the words on this notice mean — the system it is filed under, and what the filing type says about who found the fault.
This notice names one vehicle among several registers that have written about it. Every notice this site holds for the Honda Ridgeline, in all seven, is kept on that vehicle's own page, with the newest in each.
This register keeps an index of its own for every maker and every year it holds: Canadian recalls on a Honda: 362 in the register, and 377 Canadian vehicle recalls filed in 2006.
