Honda is recalling 886,815 Odyssey minivans in the United States.
According to documents posted by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), the cover on the fuel pump strainer can wear down from exposure to high temperatures and acidic chemicals, like those found in fertilizers. Fuel leaks can cause a vehicle fire.
The recall includes Odysseys from 2005 through 2010 model years. The recalled minivans were made between June 23, 2004, and September 4, 2010.
The company’s dealers will repair the vehicles for free, but the replacement parts may not be available until this summer.
Honda will notify owners of the recall next month.
