Why should I pay a penny for a recall problem that Honda created using substandard materials in my 2018 Honda CRV LX. I had the fuel pump replaced by my mechanic Richard Beaulieu of Beaulieu's Upright Auto Repair, Augusta, Maine 04330. He tried to purchase the fuel pump motor from Honda parts distributors, which he was told they have in stock but can't sell them to anyone except a Honda dealership. So, we had to settle for an after market Delphi p/n 2270N fuel pump assembly $709.99. All I want is for Honda to cover the new fuel pump cost, for a problem they created. Honda USA called me today that unless I visit a Honda dealership and pay their diagnostic fee that they will not clear the recall flag on my vehicle. Talk about highway robbery! I have an open NHTSA complaint number #11609831. I trust my mechanic for diagnostics more then Honda's. Why issue these safety recalls if it's only a money grab for the dealerships? Winter is approaching and I don't want to be left stranded side of the road with Honda's defective fuel pump. My car is running fine, actually better as it idles more smoothly and has better acceleration.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2018","productMake":"HONDA","productModel":"CR-V","manufacturer":"Honda (American Honda Motor Co.)"}]}]}
