How car recalls get reported
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) officially start car recalls after receiving complaints from consumers.
TORRANCE, Calif. - Honda is voluntarily recalling more than 700,000 vehicles in the U.S., due to a defective high-pressure fuel pump part that could crack and lead to possible fuel leaks.
The automaker said it will offer a free inspection and, if necessary, a replacement of the fuel pump for the 2023-2025 vehicles.
According to the company, these cracks can grow during vehicle operations, leading to possible fuel leaks, fuel smell while idling or driving, along with the risk of fire, crash, or injury.
The list of recalled U.S. models includes the 2023-2024 Honda Accord and Accord Hybrid, the 2025 Honda Civic Sedan and Civic Sedan Hybrid and the 2023-2025 Honda CR-V Hybrid.

Honda said that it has had 145 warranty claims, and no reports of injuries or deaths related to the issue from February 2023 through September 2024.
Honda said registered owners of all affected models will be contacted by mail in December and asked to take their vehicle to an authorized Honda dealer for a free inspection. The dealer will replace the high-pressure fuel pump if it is found to be defective.
Owners of affected vehicles are asked to take them to an authorized dealer for repair as soon as they receive a notification.
Owners of these vehicles can also determine if their vehicles require repair by visiting www.recalls.honda.com or by calling (888) 234-2138.
