FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:DELIVERY:FUEL PUMP
HONDA IS RECALLING CERTAIN MODEL YEAR 2011 HONDA CIVIC VEHICLES. TO PREVENT FUEL FROM LEAKING OUT OF A VEHICLE'S FUEL TANK INTO THE EVAPORATIVE EMISSIONS CANISTER IN THE EVENT A ROLL-OVER INCIDENT OCCURS, THE FUEL PUMP MODULE IS EQUIPPED WITH A ROLL OVER VALVE (ROV). DUE TO IMPROPER ULTRASONIC WELDING OF THE PLASTIC CASE THAT HOUSES THE ROV WITHIN THE FUEL PUMP MODULE, THE CASE MATERIAL MAY BREAK OR CRACK, WHICH MAY CAUSE THE ROV TO SEPARATE FROM THE CASE AND FAIL TO FUNCTION, THEREBY INCREASING THE RISK OF FUEL LEAKAGE IN A ROLL-OVER INCIDENT.
Fix: DEALERS WILL INSPECT THE FUEL PUMP MODULE AND IF NECESSARY REPLACE THE MODULE FREE OF CHARGE. THE SAFETY RECALL BEGAN ON APRIL 25, 2011. OWNERS MAY CONTACT HONDA CUSTOMER SERVICE AT 1-800-999-1009.

I BOUGHT A 2011 HONDA CIVIC FROM A USED CAR DEALER. WHILE THE CAR IS IN MOTION OR SITTING AT STOP LIGHT WITH THE HEATER ON OR A/C ON YOU CAN SMELL RAW GAS SMELL. IT COMES AND GOES.MOST OF THE TIME YOU SMELL IT. IF YOU PUT CLIMATE CONTROL IN RETICULATION THERE IS NO SMELL OF RAW FUEL AT ALL.DEALER CANNOT FIND ANY LEAKS I CAN'T EITHER. SINCE THEY SOLD THIS TO ME AND THIS IS A HEALTH CONCERN CAN I MAKE THEM TAKE CAR BACK?
