- Lights And Instruments#2021316
4,768 units affected
Issue: On certain motorcycles, the rear reflex reflector lens could have a defect that could reduce the amount of light that is reflected. As a result, the reflector may not meet the requirements of Canadian regulations. Safety Risk: A reflector that is difficult to see may make the motorcycle less visible to others. This could increase the risk of a crash. Corrective Actions: Honda will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your motorcycle to a dealer to inspect, and if necessary, replace the rear reflex reflector.
- Powertrain#2019261
212 units affected
Issue: On certain motorcycles, a clip in the transmission may detach. This could cause the transmission to shift from neutral into gear during engine start-up, or cause the rear wheel to lockup while the motorcycle is being driven. Safety Risk: A rear wheel lockup could affect vehicle stability and cause a loss of control. A transmission that suddenly shifts into gear could cause unexpected vehicle movement. Both situations could increase the risk of a crash. Corrective Actions: The company will notify owners by mail and instruct them to take their vehicle to a dealer to replace the transmission main shaft.
