Honda recall: The high-pressure fuel pump may crack and leak fuel

Recall published 2+ years ago

The high-pressure fuel pump may crack and leak fuel.

The hazard: Fuel leak or fire risk

The recall addresses a leak or overheating component that can ignite. Where the notice says park outside, that wording is deliberate.

What the notice says: A fuel leak in the presence of an ignition source can increase the risk of a fire.

Why it matters: The vehicle may leak fuel, or a component may overheat enough to start a fire. Several of these campaigns involve a fire risk while the vehicle is parked and switched off, which is why the parking instructions matter.

What to do about Fuel / fire

Honda — The recall addresses a leak or overheating component that can ignite. Where the notice says park outside, that wording is deliberate.

  1. Read the risk note above carefully. If it says to park outdoors and away from buildings, do that tonight — the fire can start with the engine off and the key indoors.
  2. Park away from the house, the garage and other vehicles until the repair is finished, and do not leave it charging unattended if it is electric.
  3. Keep the repair order the dealer hands you. It is your proof the campaign was closed out, and it matters at resale.
  4. Check your own VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls before you do anything else. A campaign covers a build range, not every car of that model year, and the VIN lookup is the only thing that confirms yours is included.

Getting the repair booked and paid for

The money side of a vehicle recall is simple. The scheduling side is where people lose weeks.

  • Ask whether the parts are physically in stock before you accept a date. A booking without parts is a wasted morning.
  • If the dealer says the remedy is not yet available, ask to be put on their notification list and get that in writing by email.
  • Where the manufacturer has issued an interim measure — park outside, do not drive, a software limiter — follow it until the full remedy is done.
  • Reimbursement claims for earlier out-of-pocket repairs go to the manufacturer, not the dealer, and need the original itemised invoice.

Remedy named in the notice: Dealers will inspect and replace the high-pressure fuel pump as necessary, free of charge. Owner letters were mailed February 20, 2025. Owners may contact Honda customer service at 1-888-234-2138. Honda's number for this recall is PJW.
