“Miller Honda, my dealer got a notice of recall on 5/29/2020 for important safety recall defect in my model of car fuel pump module impellers may absorb excessive fuel and deform causing car to stop while in motion causing a car crash. Also, will fail inspection. Parts will not be available they say until possibly end of summer. This is unacceptable and I want to return the car and my money refunded by Honda motors on the lease I've been paying on. I am not able to drive my car and I could be killed or kill someone else and miller Honda cannot help me. …”

NHTSA complaint #11387273, filed 2021-01, 40,002 miles“The check engine light came on. The vehicle was shaking/sputtering when idling. We took it into the dealership and they said we needed to replace the fuel injectors, despite the vehicle not even having 60,000 miles on it.”
NHTSA complaint #11647807, filed 2025-03“While driving the emission system problem warning came up on my dash with the check engine light. After this happened it became incredibly hard to accelerate the engine. I was driving on the freeway and attempting to merge putting my life and my families at risk because the engine was trying to accelerate but sputtering and stopping for a moment instead. It hasn’t been inspected by police, but went to dealer and got code P219A and was told this was a faulty fuel injector. …”
NHTSA complaint #11553574, filed 2023-11“Engine light came on and it was brought to the dealership and I was told all fuel injectors need to be replaced and it wouldn't be under warranty. The car has 65,000 miles on which is just over warranty, but I should still not have had to replace these yet. There have been other problems with the fuel system with the fuel pump recall and they have extended the warranty on fuel injectors in other Honda vehicles, which leads me to believe this is a greater problem than just my car and it should still be covered by Honda.”
