What you are looking at

No photograph available

We do not hold a verified photograph of the In-tank fuel pump or Water pump yet. We would rather show none than show a picture of a different part.

What goes wrong

Honda issued a global safety recall (NHTSA Campaign 21V-215 and related regional campaigns) covering vehicles fitted with Denso-manufactured fuel pump modules where the resin impeller absorbs fuel vapour, swells, and causes the pump to seize. A seized impeller reduces fuel flow and can cause the engine to stall while driving or fail to start. Jazz / Fit models with L15-series petrol engines were listed among the affected Honda vehicles in the 2019–2022 production window in multiple markets. Honda dealers replace the fuel pump module at no charge under the recall. Buyers should verify their VIN has had the recall remedy applied before purchase.

What you would notice

  • Engine stalls unexpectedly while driving at any speed
  • Engine cranks normally but fails to start
  • Fuel pump priming noise is absent when ignition is switched to ON
  • Check Engine light with fuel delivery or fuel pressure related codes

How to check it

Where to look. Fuel pump module inside the fuel tank, underfloor rear

  1. Check the VIN against Honda's recall database (owners.honda.com or the Australian equivalent).

  2. Request written confirmation in the service history that the recall remedy has been completed.

  3. Listen for normal fuel pump priming hum when the ignition is turned to ON before cranking.

  4. Scan for fuel system fault codes.

Parts involved: In-tank fuel pump, Water pump.

What it costs to put right

≈A$0 to ≈A$1,100 at independent workshop rates, shown as an approximate guide in Australian dollars. That is for this job on its own, not for the car.

An estimate, converted to Australian dollars, for the repair as normally carried out. What a specific car costs depends on which part has failed and what it damaged on the way — treat this as the floor for a negotiation, not a quote.

Ask the seller

  • “Has the fuel pump recall been completed on this vehicle, and can you show dealer documentation confirming it?”
  • “Has the engine ever stalled unexpectedly while driving?”
  • “Can you provide the full 17-digit VIN so the current recall status can be verified before purchase?”

Everything above is true of the model, and it is free. What it does not tell you is whether THIS car still has money owing on it, has been written off or reported stolen, what kms it showed in past sale ads, whether it has had accident repair claims and what it is worth today. That comes from the official records for that plate. Enter the plate and its state for the A$17.90 Vehicle Check, or the full history from A$24.99.

Where this comes from

The failure described above is documented in published sources — owner forums, technical service bulletins, recall notices and workshop write-ups — held in our fault database. The inspection instructions and the cost estimate are KickTyres’ own interpretation of them, and it is a starting point for an inspection rather than a manufacturer statement.
