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.

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.

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:STORAGE:TANK ASSEMBLY

Dec 13, 2017
20 units potentially affected
The defect: Honda (American Honda Motor Co.) is recalling certain 2017 Honda VT1300CX Fury motorcycles and 2010 and 2016 Honda VT1300CX Fury motorcycles that received a replacement fuel tank. The fuel tank may be missing welds around the mounting bracket.
The risk: If the welds are missing, the mounting bracket can separate from the tank, allowing fuel to leak and increasing the risk of a fire in the presence of an ignition source.
The remedy: Honda will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the fuel tank welds and, as necessary, replace the fuel tank, free of charge. The recall began December 14, 2017. Owners may contact Honda customer service at 1-888-234-2138.

WHEN PRESSING THE STARTER BUTTON THE ENGINE GIVES A HALF CRANK THEN NOTHING. RELEASE AND PUSH AGAIN AND MAYBE THE STARTER WILL CRANK AND START THE MOTOR. I REPLACED THE BATTERY WITH NEW AND WHEN THE MOTOR CRANKS AND STARTS, THE TRIP AND CLOCK RESET EVERY TIME THE BIKE IS SHUT DOWN AND RESTARTED. MANY OWNERS HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM AND THE REPLACEMENT STARTER PART NUMBER AND SIZE IS DIFFERENT THAN ORIGINAL. HONDA UPGRADED THE STARTER BASED ON PAST CLAIMS BUT NEVER DID A RECALL. NEW STARTER IS $300+ IF YOU DON'T PURCHASE THE EXTENDED WARRANTY AND BASIC EXPIRES. HTTP://WWW.FURYFORUMS.COM/FORUM/FURY-TECH-PERFORMANCE-CHAT/10731-STARTER-REBUILT.HTML THIS LINK PROVES MY POINT THAT OTHER OWNERS HAVE THIS ISSUE. HONDA PLEASE RECALL THIS PART! *JS
