2017 Honda Accord Engine Recall: What Owners Should Know
Official NHTSA recall 19V060000 affects 2017 Honda Accord engine components. Learn severity, the factory remedy, and replacement options for used vs reman engines.
What is this recall about?
Honda (American
Honda Motor Co.) is recalling certain 2016-2018 Acura MDX, 2015-2019 Acura TLX and 2015-2017 Honda Accord vehicles, equipped with a 3.5L V6 engine. Particulates in fuel may adhere to the internal components of the fuel pump, reducing its performance.
How serious is it?
Severity score: **45/100** (population, component class, and safety language from the federal defect report).
**Consequence:** Reduced fuel pump performance can result in an engine stall, increasing the risk of crash.
Official fix
Honda will notify owners, and dealers will update the fuel injection engine control unit (FI-ECU) software and, if necessary, replace the fuel pump, free of charge. The recall began March 25, 2019. Owners may contact customer service at 1-888-234-2138. Acura's recall number for this recall is P3W. Honda's recall number for this recall is N3X.

What owners should do
1. Confirm whether your vehicle received the factory remedy (dealer service history or VIN lookup at [NHTSA.gov/recalls](https://www.nhtsa.gov/recalls)). 2. Do not assume a high-mileage donor engine was repaired before removal. 3. Compare **remanufactured** options that include updated components vs **used** units from unknown recall history.
Replacement options
When the recall affects engine components, remanufactured engines are often the safer value choice because they are rebuilt with current parts — not pulled from a donor that may pre-date the factory fix.

Frequently asked questions
Does this recall mean every engine on this platform is defective?
No. The recall applies to vehicles that may not have received the factory remedy. A used engine from a high-mileage donor may never have been repaired under the campaign.
Is remanufactured safer than used when a recall is open?
Remanufactured assemblies are rebuilt to current specifications and are not dependent on an unknown donor repair history — a common consideration when an open powertrain recall affects the platform.
Should I remove my engine before contacting support?
Document symptoms, save scan results, and contact support with installation details before removal so the issue can be reviewed accurately.
