so… if you still ride your bike and are aware of this recall and this happens to you, will Honda still cover it under warranty ?
the American Honda corporate head quarter hired some ex- DMV workers. if you can’t ride it due to great risk how will you take it to a dealership to get it fix? who’s going to pay for my time and the towing cost? who’s going to pay me for deflated value of my bike and 1000’s of other similar to my story? just dropping off a dead battery they want to waste 24 hours to get it checked to honor the warranty, meaning I have to fight through traffic 30 minutes each trip( that’s 2 hours) to get a new battery( maybe?) if they honor it?. Honda quality have gone to SH*$ another class action law suit is what they need so they’ll learn.
its no only in USA its happens to the cbr250r in latin american, the crankshaft is the same in cbr250 models in latin american, the only sad here the warranty is by 1 year, and its parts is so expensive around 705 US dollars, don´t buy honda again, here in colombia the buissness company of honda it called FANALCA.S.A and if you need a part you have to way around 1 month, one thin FANALCA S.A don´t do recall and don´t stop of sale, they don´t care 🙁
