Honda (American Honda Motor Co.) is recalling certain 2007, 2009-2017 CBR600RR, 2008-2017, 2021 CBR1000RR, and 2010, 2012-2013 VFR1200 motorcycles. The fuel pump impellers may have been improperly molded, which can cause them to deform and result in fuel pump failure.

These crankshafts were not properly produced causing deformity and emitting a whining noise. My motorcycle is one of the bikes that emit the crank noise. Honda did a 5 year warranty extension but that did not fix all instances of the issue as not all bikes produced the noise indicating an issue during that 5 year time frame. A deformity in the primary driven gear is arguably a large safety concern for motorcyclists with the affected motorcycles, as if the teeth on the gear fail, it could cause a catastrophic failure while moving, posing serious risk to the rider. There is a service bulletin that exists for this year and years 2008-2009 as well where Honda acknowledges the issue. How is such a large and potentially dangerous issue only considered warranty extension worthy? A vital component of the engine is incorrectly hardened which results in

LUCKILY, I BRAKE SO FAR AHEAD I DIDN'T GO INTO TRAFFIC. INCIDENTS HAVE OCCURRED SEVERAL TIMES. ALSO, THE C-ABS LIGHT BEGINS TO FLASH CONVENIENTLY INFORMING ME AFTER THE FACT THAT I HAVE AN ABS MALFUNCTION. *TR
