Example complaints
Fuel system: “Honda has sent this recall notice in Feb 2024 and again in Jan 2025. I am unable to get it fixed and remedy. I am getting the run around that parts are not available. I called back in Oct 2024 and was put on a wait list. I called again 2/6/2025 and was told the same thing. I am trying to be proactive before the fuel pump goes out and be left stranded on the road. In addition, CA dmv are stating that they will not renew my registration without this recall being fixed. My registration is due soon in April.”
