Honda has recalled 90,468 cars in India to replace a defective fuel pump. The recall also covers 2,204 additional units of older models in which the fuel pump had already been replaced as a spare part. According to the manufacturer, the fuel pumps in the affected models could have faulty impellers, which over time may cause the engine to stop or fail to start.
The recall will begin phase-wise on November 5, with free parts replacements available at all approved dealerships. The company will contact the owners of the impacted cars individually. Read on for more details.

Honda Recall: How to Check?
Customers can visit the Product Update/Recall page through the Service tab on the Honda Cars India website and enter their vehicle's VIN to see if their vehicle is impacted by the recall. Additionally, customers can verify the recall details of their vehicle at the Honda dealership if they may have purchased the fuel pump assembly from an authorized dealership between June 2017 and October 2023 through over-the-counter sales.
Global Recall
Honda voluntarily recalled almost 7.2 lakh cars in the US, including the Accord and Civic (built between 2023 and 2025) due to a malfunctioning high-pressure fuel pump. According to the manufacturer, a defective high-pressure fuel pump core could cause internal cracks in the fuel pump. In addition to raising the chance of fuel leaks and odors when driving or idling, these fissures have the potential to spread while a vehicle is in motion, increasing the risk of fire, collision, or injury. As of the recall statement, the company has not yet received any confirmed complaints of crashes or injuries.
