Safety Recall - Fuel Pump

[monkeydave]

The fuel pump on my Jazz was replaced in January 2025.   This morning,  I received a letter dated 20th June 2025 from Honda headed "URGENT SAFETY RECALL NOTICE"  advising that some Jazz models have a "fuel pump module defect" and describing what I should do to have it fixed.  It was not a generic letter - it had the VIN number and registration number for my car.

There was a Customer Service number to call for queries  (0345 200 8000). (I suspect this might be outside the UK).   A very well spoken lady checked the records,  confirmed that my car had been repaired and said I could ignore the letter.

I just seems odd that within a few days of the repair in January that both Honda and DVLA had removed the recall marker on the car,  yet six months later Honda admin are sending out a recall letter.   Crossed wires somewhere in the system ?

that reminds me of the airbag recall i think on toyota as well as honda when they replaced airbags with new ones just to have to change them again with working ones on the second time as the first ones were deemed faulty, that was a long time ago though

glad your pump is working ok still, what some have reported is that they only replace pump if it defective and not if it passes inspection, i think that was USA only though

My pump was replaced today.  It took them just over an hour.

Sorry, they didn't say-

"SUPPLIED AND FITTED A NEW FUEL PUMP
COVERED BY A HONDA RECALL"

this is the filter you pay £80 for

the strainer should come on the pump and the filter is £80 and not £156 because there is no labour as it is out for the recal work

anyone else recently had tair fuel pump replaced, mine is booked in in a few weeks time and im still not sure about it as the car drives perfectly with 37k on the clock

My 68 plate was done at 80,000. No problems. Done quickly with no smell of petrol after. They also cleaned the car.
