Honda is recalling about 720,800 vehicles across several models because of a risk that they could have a faulty part within the high-pressure fuel pump.

The recalled 2023-2024 Honda Accord and Accord Hybrid, 2025 Honda Civic and Civic Hybrid and 2023-2025 Honda CR-V Hybrid vehicles could potentially experience cracks in a component of their high-pressure fuel pumps that could cause fuel leaks, the automaker said in an Oct. 14 recall report submitted to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA).

"If a fuel leak occurs in the presence of an ignition source, the risk of a fire, crash, or injury are increased," the automaker said.

A fuel leak "can occur in lower mileage vehicles when the high-pressure fuel pump is in operation" if the pump has cracks, according to the recall report.

Honda said in a news release it announced the recall to "encourage owners of affected vehicles to take them to an authorized deal for repair as soon as they receive notification."

The fuel pump issue has not caused any known injuries or deaths since the automaker received its first warranty claim in February of last year, according to the recall report. There have been 145 warranty claims in total.

Honda said dealers will "replace the high-pressure fuel pump if it is found to be defective" during inspections of the recalled vehicles. Both the inspection and the replacement part will be free.

The issue stemmed from "improper production of the high-pressure fuel pump," the recall report said.

Supplier production processes have been "improved" to address the issue with the fuel pump component, according to the report. Honda started using the "improved" fuel pump in its manufacturing of the models early last month.
