Mumbai: Honda Motorcycle & Scooter India has announced a voluntary recall for its two models. The two-wheeler brand has recalled the H’ness CB350 and the CB350RS. These models were recalled due to faulty rear stop light switch and bank angle sensor.
The recalled units of the two motorcycles having a fault in their rear stop light switch were manufactured between October 2020 and January 2023. For bank angle sensor issue, the recall is for those units of the two motorcycles manufactured from October 2020 to December 2021.
‘It has been identified that due to an improper process being followed to manufacture the rubber parts of rear stop light switch, there are chances of crack development on the rubber. This might cause water entry and corrosion inside the switch, leading the light to malfunction,’ Honda said in an official statement.

‘Due to an inappropriate moulding procedure of sensor housing, it was observed that a gap might occur in sensor body sealing which may cause water entry inside the bank angle sensor. This leads to chances of possible sensor malfunction and vehicle stalling in the worst situation,’ it added.
Honda will replace the rear stop light switch and bank angle sensor of the affected Honda H’ness CB350 and Honda CB350RS motorcycles at its BigWing dealerships. The replacement drive will be carried out by Honda from the second week of this month (December).
‘The replacement will be done free of cost irrespective of the warranty status of the vehicle. Customers can also check if their vehicle falls under this campaign by submitting their unique vehicle identification number (VIN) on the Honda BigWing website,’ the company said.
Honda will notify customers with the help of BigWing dealerships via call, e-mail and SMS for inspection of their vehicle.
