RecallScope risk estimate:HighCAA Japan

An official CAA Japan notice concerns Motorcycles (Honda BENLY eⅡ MD, BENLY eⅠ MD) - Repair. Defect in the direction indicators (turn signal switch). ■ Defective component: ①② Direction indicators (turn signal switch). ■ Condition of the structure, equipment or performance considered noncompliant with standards, and its cause: ① Improper manufacturing control of the turn signal switch contacts may cause arcing when the switch is operated. Metal dust accumulating from the fixed contacts may create electrical continuity between contacts and generate heat, melting the contact base that holds the fixed contacts. In the worst case, this may cause a poor electrical connection and prevent the direction indicators from operating. ② Improper material control for turn signal switch components has resulted in some components being manufactured from materials different from those specified. Rainwater or other water entering the switch may corrode these components. In the worst case, progressive corrosion may cause the components to break and prevent the direction indicators from operating. Published 2021-11-04.
