What's wrong, in plain English

Certain Honda and Acura vehicles have a low-pressure fuel pump, inside the fuel tank, that may fail. If the pump fails while you are driving, the engine can stall, which raises the risk of a crash. Honda will replace the fuel pump assembly on affected vehicles, free of charge, as part of this recall.

What you should do

1. Check your VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls to see if your vehicle is included.
2. Contact a Honda dealer, or call Honda customer service at 1-888-234-2138, to schedule the repair.
3. The fuel pump replacement is free of charge.

Where do I find my VIN, and what do I tell the dealer?

Your VIN is the 17-character code on the lower left of the windshield, on your registration and usually on your insurance card. Enter it at nhtsa.gov/recalls to see whether this recall is still open on your car. When you call the dealer, say you have an open safety recall and give them NHTSA campaign number 20V314000.
