According to the Associated Press, Honda recalled 69,538 Odyssey minivans because fuel pumps might fail, causing engines to stall – all vehicles are from the 2004 model year and the company said it expects to begin notifying affected owners on September 24.
Under the Suzuki recall, for 1999 and 2000 vehicles, dealers will replace the fuel pressure regulator and vacuum hose, and change the system routing to prevent water from being sucked into the fuel pressure regulator. They also will replace the fuel delivery hose and replace the hose clamp with an improved clamp, AP said.
