This is the same problem and same part (low pressure fuel pump) from Denso that caused Toyota to recall several million vehicles a couple of years ago. The same cause of failure as well, an improperly manufactured impeller supplied by an outside vendor.
 
i have one of the affected vehicles and jsut happen to be at the dealer yesterday . i stopped by and asked a service writer about it. he said there is no fix yet and won't be till maybe next summer.

Is the impeller wearing out prematurely reducing pressure?
 
Almost had a big panik when I saw that the RLX was hit. Glad its not the pre-facelift ones.
 
Honda is on a roll these days with their 2015-2020 models. Buy a Toyota or Honda, their bulletproof they say.

Between the Acura MDX and Honda CR-V Hybrid vehicles in my signature, there are three stop sale recalls for the two. MDX has the engine connecting rod bearing + fuel pump recalls; CR-V Hybrid has the missing fuse in the battery cable.

I'm less worried about the CR-V, but concerned how the MDX will be if major repairs are needed. I still love both vehicles and can't think of anything else I would replace them with at the moment.

I drive a 2020 CR-V Hybrid almost every day. Put almost 80k on it in 3 years. Those aren't easy going granny miles either. Haven't had any issues at all reliability and quality wise.

Recalls are common on all vehicles now, manufacturers are more accountable, to have 2 recalls in 3 years isn't so bad. 1st one was for a computer programming update (which supposedly was done OTA with dealer wifi) and this fuel pump thing which seems more like a precaution.

My 05 Scion had 3 recalls on it I believe, PS pump (voluntary) a sticker in the engine bay and to lube the sunroof. Nothing major.

I saw this earlier today.
I figure that if my car had a fuel pump problem, it would have manifested by now since I'm now past 96K.

What year, trim, tranny type, and engine size? I love my 2002 Accord EX V6 AT. 225k miles and still purr. I am dreading the next timing belt and water pump job though.
 
Got the fuel pump recall notice last week. It said that a replacement pump would be available in the fall and that I would be notified when it became available.
We'll see how this goes.

My 2018 CR-V just had the fuel pump replaced per the recall but the check engine light still comes on. I am told that the high pressure fuel pump is also bad and will cost $1600 to replace. I am wondering if the two problems are related.

My 2018 CR-V with 58K miles started exhibiting all of the bad fuel pump issues. Above 30mph the car started bucking. Had it towed to the dealer on 2/16. They were able to obtain a replacement low pressure fuel pump and told me my car would be ready on 2/22. But after changing the LP fuel pump the check engine remained on. I was told that my high pressure fuel pump had also failed. The replacement is $1600, not covered by the recall, sounds to me like a cascading failure.
 
This recall also applies to 2018-2020 Honda Gold Wings. It turns out the GW uses the same fuel pumps as they use in their cars. I received an email from goldwingdocs.com about a week ago to let me know I'll be getting the recall notice in mail next month. I have a 2018 model. I'd rather have them actually have a recall, than to just do nothing. Everyone is saying with so many vehicles getting recalled, there's going to be a lot of people waiting for the dealers to get the replacement pumps...
