Overview
| MLIT filing number | 2205430 |
|---|---|
| Type | Improvement Campaign (manufacturer improvement measure / 改善対策) |
| Date filed | June 28, 2018 |
| Manufacturer(s) | Honda |
| Component | Fuel Tank |
| Production period | September 14, 2017 — December 11, 2017 |
| Vehicles affected | 491 units |
Issue
The fuel vapor separator connected to the canister is incorrectly positioned within the fuel tank. When the tank is full and fuel sloshes during repeated vehicle launches, liquid fuel may flow from the separator into the canister. Continued operation allows an overly rich mixture to enter the combustion chamber, causing engine malfunction. In the worst case, the engine may stall while driving.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, replace the fuel tank with a corrected part and replace the canister with a new unit. As part of the fuel tank replacement, also replace the seat, pump cover, and drain tube with revised-shape components.

状況
燃料タンクにおいて、燃料蒸発ガス排出抑止装置（キャニスタ）につながるセパレータの位置が不適切なため、燃料満タン時に発進を繰り返すなど燃料タンク内で燃料の液面が揺れた際に、当該セパレータからキャニスタに燃料が流入することがある。そのため、そのまま使用を続けると、燃焼室内に過濃な混合気が吸入され、エンジン不調となり、最悪の場合、走行中にエンストするおそれがある。
改善措置
全車両、燃料タンクを対策品に交換するとともに、キャニスタを新品と交換する。なお、燃料タンクの交換に伴い、シート、ポンプカバー、ドレンチューブを形状変更品と交換する。
