Honda Canada announced that it will recall nearly 298,000 Acura and Honda vehicles to replace their fuel pumps, according to the automaker in a press release on Thursday.

In the statement, the company said that the fuel pump was "improperly molded" in Acura and Honda vehicles released between 2017 and 2020, resulting in low-density impellers, which may cause the fuel pump to be inefficient. Fuel pump difficulties could cause the engine not to start or to stall while driving, potentially increasing the risk of an accident or injury.

Honda has not received any reports of accidents or injuries related to this issue.

Canadian owners of affected vehicles will be contacted by mail in February, and affected vehicle owners can also check if their cars are affected by visiting the Acura and Honda websites.

A complete list of affected models is available on the Honda and Acura websites.
