Summary

Dealer message - honda is expanding some VIN ranges within the existing safety recall of multiple models (s/b multi-model: starter relay switch #1 revised: august 2015) originally launched july 2015. Honda has determined there may be a defect within the starter relay switch (starter magnetic switch) assembly that can cause an increase in resistance across the main fuse, potentially interrupting battery voltage to the electrical system. An interruption of electrical system battery voltage can cause the engine to a) not start or b) stall while riding. In an extreme case, the increased resistance at the main fuse can cause the starter relay switch to catch on fire. An engine that stalls while riding increases the risk of a crash.

Owners of these vehicles have filed 1 complaints in the electrical category.
