I HAVE A 2003 HONDA SHADOW 750 ACE MOTORCYCLE AND WAS RIDING IT ON 6/28/06 WHEN I DISCOVERED A FUEL LEAK THAT WAS DRIPPING ONTO THE LEFT CYLINDER HEAD AROUND THE SPARK PLUG. UPON FURTHER INVESTIGATION I FOUND A SMALL HOLE IN THE TANK THAT HAD RUSTED THROUGH FROM THE INSIDE. CONTACTED HONDA DEALER AND WAS ADVISED THAT THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO AND THAT THEY DID NOT FEEL LIKE THIS WAS THEIR PROBLEM. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD AND SHOULD BE A RECALL THIS SHOULD NOT HAVE OCCURRED ON A 3 YEAR OLD MOTORCYCLE AND I DO NOT LIVE IN A STATE WHERE CORROSION IS A PROBLEM. *JB

Reading this record

No unusual pattern of severe incidents in the complaint record.

Complaint counts track how many cars were sold and how long they have been on the road as much as they track quality. A common model from 2013 has had a decade to accumulate reports; a rare one from last year has not. The signal worth weighing is in the severity columns, in whether the same component keeps appearing, and in whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.

Most recent recall on file: none. Source: NHTSA Office of Defects Investigation.
