Details
What's wrong: The vent shut float (vsf) valve case in the fuel tank assembly does not meet the design specifications.
Why it matters: As a result, fuel may leak from the tank, increasing the risk of fire.
The fix: Honda will notify owners and dealers will inspect the vsf assembly date and, if necessary, replace the fuel tank assembly, free of charge. The safety recall began on March 13, 2012.
