The recall involves 18,000 Civics from the 2011 model year.
/*Honda*/ says a plastic case that covers a valve in the fuel pump module could break or crack. That could lead to a fuel leak in a rollover crash and the leaking fuel could ignite a fire.
No crashes or injuries have been reported related to this defect.
Dealers will inspect the fuel pump and replace it if needed at no cost. Notifications will be sent to customers beginning April 11.
For more information, owners can contact Honda at (800) 999-1009 or check recall information on Honda's website.
