Honda is recalling certain 2021 Rebel 1100 (CMX1100) motorcycles.  According to Honda’s recall notice, the affected motorcycles may have an insufficiently sealed radiator cap.  As a result, the cap could leak or spray hot coolant onto the rider.

Honda’s Part 573 Safety Recall Report to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) says 1,022 motorcycles may have this issue.

In its report, Honda says:

“During the manufacturing process, the die for the radiator cap may have improperly formed the cap’s outer hook height, exceeding manufacturing specifications, which may result in a ride-over position of the cap when tightened to the radiator filler neck, creating an insufficient seal.”

Describing the safety risk, Honda states:

“As a result, hot coolant may leak, potentially injuring the rider, or others, and increasing the risk of a crash.”

Affected motorcycles:

The motorcycles affected by this recall are as follows:

All 2021 model Rebel 1100 motorcycles built from April 10, 2021, through July 22, 2021.

Recall notifications:

Honda has already notified its dealers.  They will notify owners of the affected motorcycles by mail starting February 13, 2022

Program for remedying the defect:

Registered owners of all affected motorcycles will be contacted by mail and are advised to take their motorcycle to a Honda dealer.  The dealer will replace the radiator cap and refill any lost coolant for free.

Should owners have any questions, they may contact Honda customer service at 1-888-234-2138 and cite Honda’s recall number KN1.  Owners may also contact the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), quoting NHTSA Campaign Number: 21V987000, or go to www.nhtsa.gov.
