Honda Safety Recall: 2005 Accord and Odyssey

I received this notice from American Honda a couple of days ago regarding a safety recall. The reason for the recall, according to the notice, is

a defect relating to motor vehicle safety exists in certain 2005 Accords and Odysseys, and certain 2006 Ridgelines. A faulty fuel pump relay may cause the fuel pump to lose power. If the fuel pump comes inoperative, the engine may not start. In the worst case, if the fuel pump loses power while driving, the engine could stall without warning, and a crash could occur.

We got this notice because we bought a new Odyssey in 2005. If your Honda vehicle is a model that’s mentioned above, but didn’t receive any notice, you may want to contact your Honda dealer to get the problem fixed, which is free of charge.

For additional information, you can contact Honda Automobile Customer Service at (800) 999-1009.
