[QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 50340, member: 636"] Honda faces a significant safety concern with its 2024 NC750X motorcycles. The company discovered that 112 bikes have dangerous tire problems that could lead to crashes. These motorcycles were produced between February and August last year. The trouble comes from faulty tires made by Sumitomo, a Japanese supplier. The tire maker changed its tire-building process in early 2024, which weakened the internal structure. The defective tires can fall apart from the inside, making them unsafe to ride. Honda acted quickly when it discovered the problem. They stopped selling the affected bikes and told all their dealers about the issue. The company has sent out safety warnings and will provide dealers with more detailed instructions next month. Honda plans to contact motorcycle owners directly in August when replacement parts arrive. Riders will not incur any costs for the tire replacements. Honda covers all expenses for checking and fixing the problem. Only certified Honda mechanics are authorized to perform the repair work. Motorcycle owners can contact Honda customer service directly by calling 1-866-784-1870. They can also contact the national safety hotline at 1-888-327-4236 or visit [ICODE]www.nhtsa.gov[/ICODE] For more help. The good news is that no crashes or injuries have occurred due to these defective tires. Honda caught the problem early and prevented any accidents from happening. Since October, all new NC750X bikes have been equipped with fixed tires that do not exhibit this defect. [/QUOTE]
