HONDA CIVIC Recall

Engine may cut out and or fail to start
HONDA CIVIC recall Oct 2006HONDA announced a problem with the CIVIC affecting a total of 3,038 vehicles.

It has been identified that the engine may fail to start, or may stall, and fail to restart. This situation is caused by the presence of water residue from the tank testing procedure, being left on the fuel pump wiring connector block. This situation can result in electrolytic corrosion of the connector terminals which may then break, thus interrupting the electrical supply to the fuel pump, with subsequent loss of fuel pressure. Vehicles built from 05/02/2006 to 06/28/2006 are at risk.

Recalled vehicles will be checked for the presence of corrosion and or water on the fuel pump connector block. Should this situation be found, the fuel pump assembly will be replaced.

If you think that your vehicle may be affected by this recall you should find your nearest HONDA dealer who will be able to confirm whether or not your car is safe and arrange its free repair if necessary.
