How this campaign compares

At 2,490,460 vehicles this is a bigger campaign than 99% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers model years 2013 to 2023, so the oldest vehicles on it were 10 model years old when the defect was reported to NHTSA.

Honda vehicles have been recalled over the fuel system, gasoline 34 times before this, most recently in May 2022 as 22V380000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.

This site holds the complaint record for 98 of the 107 model years the campaign names. Their owners have filed 34,942 complaints with NHTSA, 19,298 of them before this campaign was filed. 1,577 of those name the fuel system, gasoline, the system this recall is about — a count of complaints, not of this defect. The earliest of them reached NHTSA in October 2012, 11 years before this filing.

The vehicles on this campaign carry 49 other recalls published here, the newest being: 26V423000 (back over prevention), 26V365000 (structure), 26V332000 (air bags), 26V227000 (air bags).

Check your own car

A VIN check is the only answer for a specific vehicle, and it also shows every other open recall on it, which is usually the reason it is worth doing rather than reading one campaign.

Filed by Honda (American Honda Motor Co.) with NHTSA on December 18, 2023 as campaign 23V858000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
