(Reuters) -The U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration said on Thursday it has opened an engineering analysis into 129,092 U.S. Honda Motor vehicles after receiving reports of camera failure.
The engineering analysis focuses on 2017-2019 models of Honda Ridgeline mid-size pickup trucks.
The NHTSA said the vehicles’ rear-view camera fails to function properly due to damage to the tailgate wire harness caused by normal vehicle usage.
Honda has acknowledged 14 reports of remedy failures related to an earlier recall of these models.
The regulator said it believes further testing is necessary to assess potential faults in the affected equipment.
