The 2000HONDACBR600 carries 3 consumer safety complaints in NHTSA's Office of Defects Investigation database for this specific model-year cohort. Within that volume, owners reported 0 crashes, 0 fires, 0 injuries, and 0 fatalities. No NCAP 5-star crash-test rating is available for this model year in the federal database.
Component-level analysis is where model-year complaints become actionable: the top complaint category for the 2000 CBR600 is visibility:rearview mirrors/devices:exterior with 1 filings, followed by suspension:front (1) and power train (1). Concentration in one or two component groups is the classic signature of a systemic defect; a flat distribution usually reflects normal aging, warranty complaints, or isolated build-plant variability.
NHTSA currently has 77 investigation files overlapping the 2000 CBR600, and 9 remain open. Owners comparing this cohort against neighboring years should pair the counters above with the complaint-by-year trend on the parent model page — a spike in a single year often tracks to a platform refresh, a new transmission supplier, or an updated ECU calibration.

CAR JUMPS WHEN GAS PRESSED. IN THE PAST IT WAS ONLY OCCASIONAL BUT NOW IT IS MORE FREQUENT. LAST WEEK THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON, TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND WAS TOLD THE TRANSMISSION IS THE PROBLEM. THIS CAR HAS ALWAYS BEEN SERVICED BY THE HONDA DEALER AND ONLY DRIVEN ON WEEKENDS. . AFTER RESEARCHING I FOUND OUT THAT THE TRANSMISSION ON HONDA ACCORDS IS A KNOWN DEFECT. THERE WAS A CLASS ACTION BUT I WAS NEVER NOTIFIED. THE DEALER DOES NOT KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT THE CLASS ACTION SETTLEMENT OR WHY I WAS NOT NOTIFIED. EVEN THOUGH WE DON'T PUT MANY MILES ON THIS CAR BUT SOON MY TEENAGER WILL BE READY TO DRIVE. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE I WOULD LIKE HONDA TO FIX THIS DEFECT. *TR
