DETROIT — Honda is recalling nearly 206,000 SUVs in the U. S. because the fuel filler neck can separate from the filler pipe in a crash, allowing gasoline to leak and increasing the risk of a fire.
The recall covers certain 2023 and 2024 Passports and some 2023 through 2025 Pilots.
Honda says in documents posted Thursday by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration that a glitch in the installation process prevented a complete connection between the neck and the pipe.
The company said it has one warranty claim and no reports of injuries from December of 2018 through Nov.

Building such a game on top of such well-loved source material comes with plenty of challenges.
