models. However, due to the ongoing shortage of replacement parts, the recall has been expanded to include approximately 1.4 million additional vehicles. The expansion includes 2017 Honda Pilot and 2018-2019 Honda Fit vehicles.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Cause_of_the_Fuel_Pump_Motor_Failure\"><\/span>Cause of the Fuel Pump Motor Failure<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The issue stems from improperly molded impellers within the fuel pumps. These impellers, which are responsible for circulating fuel, can absorb fuel and deform over time. The deformation can interfere with the fuel pump body, potentially rendering the pump inoperative. This can lead to engine starting or stalling issues, increasing the risk of a crash or injury.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Affected_Models\"><\/span>Affected Models<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The expanded Honda and Acura fuel pump motor recall affects the following models:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Acura:<\/strong><br \/>\n&#8211; 2018-2020 ILX<br \/>\n&#8211; 2018-2020 MDX<br \/>\n&#8211; 2018-2020 MDX Sport Hybrid<br \/>\n&#8211; 2017-2020 NSX<br \/>\n&#8211; 2018-2020 RDX<br \/>\n&#8211; 2018-2020 RLX<br \/>\n&#8211; 2018-2020 TLX<\/p>\n<p><strong>Honda:<\/strong><br \/>\n&#8211; 2018-2020 Accord<br \/>\n&#8211; 2017-2020 Accord Hybrid<br \/>\n&#8211; 2018-2020 Civic<br \/>\n&#8211; 2018-2020 Civic Type R<br \/>\n&#8211; 2018-2019 Clarity Plug-in Hybrid<br \/>\n&#8211; 2018-2020 CR-V<br \/>\n&#8211; 2020 CR-V Hybrid<br \/>\n&#8211; 2018-2019 Fit<br \/>\n&#8211; 2018-2020 HR-V<br \/>\n&#8211; 2019-2020 Insight<br \/>\n&#8211; 2018-2020 Odyssey<br \/>\n&#8211; 2019-2020 Passport<br \/>\n&#8211; 2017-2020 Pilot<br \/>\n&#8211; 2018-2020 Ridgeline<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Stop_Sale_Order\"><\/span>Stop Sale Order<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Due to the potential safety risk posed by the faulty fuel pumps, Honda and Acura have issued a &#8220;stop sale&#8221; order for all affected vehicles.
