Honda Recalls Over 2.5 Million Vehicles Due to Fuel Pump Defect
The recall, affecting various 2017-2020 models, is due to improperly molded fuel pump impellers that can increase risks of engine failure or stalling.
- Honda is recalling over 2.5 million vehicles in the U.S. due to a fuel pump defect that can increase risks of engine failure or stalling while driving.
- The fuel pump impeller used for in 2017-2020 Acura and Honda vehicles was improperly molded, leading to low-density impellers that can deform and interfere with the fuel pump body over time.
- Honda will replace fuel pumps for all vehicles impacted by the recall at no cost in separate phases, with the first batch of owner notification letters going out in February.
- The recall includes various models including the 2018-2020 model year Honda Accord, Civic, CR-V, HR-V, Insight, Ridgeline, Odyssey, Passport and various Acura models.
- This recall follows another recall earlier this week of more than 106,000 2020-2022 CR-V hybrid vehicles due to a missing fuse on the power circuit of exterior 12-Volt battery cables.
