2018-19 model year Honda FK4/FK5 Civic Hatch: fuel pump impeller failure
In July 2020, recall campaign 6FE was issued for 2018-19 model year Honda FK4/FK5 Civic Hatch vehicles. Due to an inappropriate production process at the supplier, fuel could penetrate the fuel pump impeller – this could cause the impeller to swell and deform during use of the vehicle. As a result, the impeller and pump chamber come into contact, causing the fuel pump to stop working – this, in turn, could prevent the engine from starting or cause the engine to stall while driving. This latter event increased the risk of a collision, injury and death to vehicle occupants and road users. For the VINs of the recalled vehicles, please see PRA 2020/18363.
