Recalls
American Honda Motor Co. Inc., released recall NHTSA 16V-661 on September 12, 2016, for a potential safety issue regarding the fuel pump inlet collapsing, preventing fuel flow. The recall indicates a free replacement of the OE fuel pump by authorized Honda dealers.
In June 2015, Honda also issued a Non-Compliance recall for the emissions sticker on the swing arm for 2014–15 models. Authorized dealers were sent new emission stickers, with the correct information.[5]
