Not sure if this matters to many folks, but this ticks me off, particularly since it is a brake issue. The NHTSA posting says it applies to "2001-2010 and 2012 GL1800 and 2001-2005 GL1800A motorcycles." This implies (to me) that there was a fix that Honda implemented for 2013 model year and beyond. That being the case, why are we just now hearing about it? Just curious.

Thanks for posting it zg1286.

I just came from the dealer who said it was a recal of the recall. They ran my vin and gave me a print out that said my 12 had no active recalls that needed completed. Also a friend sent me a copy of the letter honda sent to NTSA says owners would be notified by 9-1-14. I got nothing. Bike seems fine. Who knows. Noticed that it could start a fire-oh well I do like the new black and red bikes

Thank you for posting this info. You can never be too safe. Get it checked, and you might want to have a copy of the Recall notice from NHTSA with you.

What I don't understand...If..."root cause has not been determined" and it is continuing to investigate.

Then why are they not checking the 13,and 14 models??? Nothing changed as far as I know between 12 & 13,14 Brakes

Any Idea's??

Maybe the first recall was just quick check they know whats going on mama Honda fights until there forced in to taking action. They solved the problem in 2012

There is a second web page you can check. It is a 4 page document from Honda and what to expect. On the 4th page there is a list of VIN's . Check carefully the list is not chronological. Unfortunately my 2012 is listed. www-odi.nhtsa.dot.gov/cams/cs...V472-9670P.pdf

Well... Not exactly:

The estimated date to begin sending notifications to owners: August 18,2014

The estimated date of completion of the notification: September 1, 2014

My 2003A is part of this recall. I have not heard from Honda. They do not know what the problem is, so why take it to the dealer now? I think I will wait till they figure it out.

If I can get the necessary parts (if required) I'm not gonna take mine to the dealer at all. If the parts needed are expensive or hard to get, I may change my mind.
