2 NHTSA recalls · 8 owner complaints on file

Two recalls cover this hybrid: the widely applied Honda and Acura fuel pump that can fail and stall the engine, and water intrusion in the tailgate lights that can disable the taillights. Neither has a stop-driving or park-outside instruction. Owner reports are sparse — eight unverified NHTSA complaints, no crashes, fires, or injuries — but the ones filed cluster around fuel and propulsion and the power train, which echoes the fuel pump recall rather than contradicting it.

Before you buy

  1. Get the 17-character VIN from the seller and run it at nhtsa.gov/recalls. It shows which recalls are still unrepaired on that exact car.
  2. Confirm the fuel pump recall repair by VIN and ask about any stalling history.
  3. Inspect the tailgate light housings for trapped water or fogging.
  4. Watch for hesitation, stalling, or no-start behavior during the test drive.
  5. Open recalls are repaired free at any Acura dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
