Open the full vehicle complaint log (all categories)Fuel pump failure mid-traffic in busy two lane road, unable to start vehicle. The engine sputtered and then halted with all warning lights on dashboard lighting up. Full propulsion of the vehicle ceased while in traffic causing car to be dead on the side of the road until police and tow truck could be dispatched. If this occurred on a busier road or in a 65 mile per hour divided highway, this could have caused a major mukti-vehicle accident and placed me in significant danger.
See attached document for complaint.
I was driving on a highway when my car just shut off in the middle lane in the middle of the highway. And I had five errors come up on my screen and my car would not start back up. I had it towed to Honda where they said it was my fuel pump. My safety was put at risk because the car just shut off while driving 75 mph in the middle lane and came to a complete stop. I was not able to roll to the side of the road. Honda released a recall on 2020 passports for the fuel pump in Feb 2024 for this exact reason but my Vin number was not included so I contacted Honda to see if I could get reimbursed since it did happen to my passport in Jan 2024 and they are stating that at this time I cannot be reimbursed because it’s only on select passports, even though it happened to my passport.
