This bulletin applies to all 2019 Honda models with direct-injection engines. Some of the service information procedures involving the removal and installation of the fuel system and engine parts require the removal and installation of the fuel joint pipe. Keep in mind that this is a must-replace part and it must never be reused.

Be sure to apply the polyethylene glycol lubricant from the joint pipe kit and torque the joint pipe to spec. Failure to do this will lead to fuel leaks.
