Plain-English summary

Braun Corporation is recalling certain 2018-2021 Honda Odyssey vehicles. The recall affects 1,258 vehicles.

The fuel tank assembly installed by Braun may be susceptible to fuel overflow from the tank into the charcoal canister. If the charcoal canister fills with a sufficient amount of fuel, fuel may leak out. A fuel leak in the presence of an ignition source may increase the risk of fire.

Owners should contact Braun customer service at 1-800-488-0359. Braun will notify owners, and dealers will inspect vehicles. If evidence of a fuel leak is present, a new fuel tank assembly and a new Honda charcoal canister will be installed free of charge. The recall began February 22, 2021. Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153) or visit www.safercar.gov.
