Recalls, owner-reported complaints, investigations and safety data

Data refreshed

Owner complaintsComplaints are reports submitted to NHTSA by owners and drivers. NHTSA does not verify most reports before publishing them, and a complaint does not establish that a defect exists. Volume is influenced by how many of a vehicle were sold, how long it has been on the road, and how much attention an issue has received.

Safety recallsA safety recall is issued when a manufacturer or NHTSA determines that a vehicle has a safety-related defect or does not comply with a federal motor vehicle safety standard. Recall repairs are free. Whether a specific vehicle is covered depends on its VIN — a recall listed for a model year does not necessarily apply to every vehicle of that year.
0
InvestigationsNHTSA opens an investigation to examine whether a safety defect may exist. An open investigation is not a determination that a defect exists, and many investigations close without a recall. Investigations can, however, lead to one.
0
Crash or fire reportedComplaints whose submitter recorded that a crash or a fire occurred. These are the reporter's own answers on the NHTSA form, not verified findings.

THE INCIDENT IS SIMILAR TO THE ONE LISTED BELOW RELATED TO THE GL1800 THE REAR BRAKE STARTED TO SLOW DOWN THE VEHICLE WITHOUT BEING APPLIED. THE VEHICLE CAME TO A SUDDEN STOP WHEN IT REACHED BELOW 10 MPH (AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT). IT BECAME DIFFICULT TO DRIVE AND HAD TO BE TOWED BACK HOME. THE LOCAL DEALER IS LOOKING INTO THE SITUATION AND DISCUSSING THE ISSUE WITH HONDA. MAKE: HONDA MODEL: GL1800 MODEL YEAR: 2007 MANUFACTURER: HONDA (AMERICAN HONDA MOTOR CO.) MFR'S REPORT DATE: DEC 01, 2011 NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER: 11V567000 N/A NHTSA ACTION NUMBER: N/A COMPONENT: SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:FOUNDATION COMPONENTS:MASTER CYLINDER SUMMARY: HONDA IS RECALLING CERTAIN MODEL YEAR 2001-2010, AND MODEL YEAR 2012 GL1800 GOLDWING MOTORCYCLES. UNDER CERTAIN CONDITIONS, THERE IS A POSSIBILITY THAT THE COMBINED BRAKING SYSTEM'S SECONDARY MASTER CYLINDER MAY CAUSE THE REAR BRAKE TO DRAG. CONSEQUENCE: UNEXPECTED BRAKING INCREASES THE RISK OF A CRASH, AND RIDING THE MOTORCYCLE WITH THE REAR BRAKE DRAGGING MAY GENERATE ENOUGH HEAT TO CAUSE THE REAR BRAKE TO CATCH FIRE. REMEDY: HONDA WILL NOTIFY OWNERS, AND DEALERS WILL INSPECT THE SECONDARY MASTER CYLINDER AND IF NECESSARY, REPLACE IT, FREE OF CHARGE. THE SAFETY RECALL BEGAN ON JANUARY 6, 2012. OWNERS MAY CONTACT HONDA CUSTOMER SERVICE AT 1-866-784-1870. *TT
