Honda Recalls 165,000 Cars and Trucks in U.S.

Honda is recalling over 165,000 cars and trucks in the United States due to a engine defect that causes sealer material to leak onto a coil wire inside the fuel pump that can cause the wire to break and could lead to false starts or stalling. Honda cars involved in the recall include the 2005 Honda Accord coupes, 2006 models of the Honda Odyssey and Ridgeline trucks, as well as the 2005 models of Acura’s RL, TL and TSX. This is a part of Honda’s larger global recall.

If you own any of these models and experience problems, contact your local Honda dealer or call Honda at (800) 999-1009.

Reliability doesnt have anything to do with Recalls. A recall just means the automaker caught some flaw in production.

Reliability is something Ford, GM, Chrysler, MERCEDES, BMW, AUDI, VW dont have. You know, when your power seat just stops working. Or your car breaks down on the side of the road. That's RELIABILITY. A Recall has NOTHING to do with a car's reliability!

Mercedes and BMW have never been on the side of the road because they have a tow truck following them. Honda has sold over 300,000 Accords consistently for the last couple of years. 165,000 recalls of several models, well you do the math.

Can't be a proud moment for Honda, but doubt it will tarnish their image much... Besides, the number is not that high....
