The recall follows a similar initiative announced by Honda Cars India in 2021 where it recalled almost 78,000 vehicles manufactured between 2019 and 2020 over a faulty fuel pump.
Honda says that the affected vehicles could have a fuel pump with a defective impeller which could result in the engine either stopping or refusing to start. The company has said that the recall will commence in a phased manner starting from November 5 with the part replacement being carried out free of charge. Owners of affected vehicles will be contacted individually by the company.
