Mine was built 9/18. Looks like I'm in for a trip to the dealership.

Where is the fuel pump located and how much does the new one cost approx?
I'd rather replace it myself (if not a ton of work and doesn't cost a fortune) than let the dealership monkeys touch my car.

I have not replaced one on these engines so I cannot speak on that. But in the past when I have replaced them they have been a HUGE pain to do so I personally would just let the dealership do it

About $230 online. Replacement is fairly simple - just remove the rear seat cushion and access panel then loosen the fuel pump using a special tool. Your vehicle will always show an open recall until a Honda dealer replaces it again.

Okay...so sounds like a typical fuel pump location....meaning the techs are far less likely to break two other things while replacing it. I'll prolly even remove the rear-seat before dropping off the car just to avoid them messing that up somehow. (in case you can't tell, I absolutely HATE letting dealerships touch my cars)
