Honda is recalling 2.6 million cars, SUVs and vans in the United States over a fuel pump defect that could cause the vehicles to stall on the road or fail to start.
The notice affects certain Honda and Acura models made from 2017 and 2020, according to a news release issued Thursday. The automaker recalled more than 620,000 vehicles in 2021 over the same issue.
The problem stems from improperly molded fuel pump impellers, which could cause the part to malfunction. “If the fuel pump module is inoperative, the engine may not start or can stall while driving, increasing the risk of a crash or injury,” the company said.
Honda said it has not received any reports of crashes or injuries as a result of the faulty fuel pumps.
