Thousands of Honda vehicles have been recalled due to a fuel pump defect which could cause the engine to stall while driving. More than 50,000 cars made between 2017 and 2020 have been recalled. The models are: Odyssey, Accord, City, Civic, CR-V, HR-V, Jazz, Civic Type R and NSX. These models have an issue with the fuel pump due to an “improper manufacturing process”, the Department of Infrastructure, Transport, Regional Development, Communications and the Arts said.

“A component within the fuel pump could swell causing the fuel pump to become inoperative,” it said. If the fuel pump stops working, the engine may not start or may stall while driving. “This may increase the risk of an accident and may result in serious injury to vehicle occupants and/or other road users,” the department said. Owners of affected cars will be contacted via mail and told to take their vehicle to a Honda Service Centre for repair, free of charge.
