Holy ****, it looks like they might be stepping up to the plate to deal with the issue. I can't read any of that... but it looks promising. Thank you TETSUHIRO for bringing this forward.

So far it looks like only Japan has announced the recall. Below are the affected units that are covered under the recall.

Google translate for the win!!

 

That is a large.

 

"Due to improper foreign matter management methods when manufacturing fuel tanks, some oxides generated inside the tank during welding may be adsorbed on the suction filter of the fuel pump. Therefore, the filter may become clogged, causing the engine to malfunction, and in the worst case, the engine may stall while driving."


Great news!

 

Is this for the Adventure Sports model only?

 

Kind of hard to say, I personally cant even make sense of the vin breakouts.

 

Reiwa 1st year = 2019 and Reiwa 2nd year = 2020... I believe.

 

Once the NHTSA announces the recall, you can search by VIN here

 

Shocking that with 57+ pages in the original fuel tank thread that this one hasnt taken off yet.

 

Hahaha they have sipped the kool-aid a little earlier... maybe they are still in shock.🤣

 

Glad to see this happening!

I think all produced AT 1000cc bikes are still under the 5 years warranty ❓

I presume when they replace the filters this also means they're gonna clean the tank before the new filters are installed right? I wonder why a fuelpump swap isn't included. By looking at the pump from the outside you can't tell if it's already contaminated also.

This recall-action, does it also count for bikes that out of their 2yr warranty period?

 

I had a whole 60 miles on my '19 ATAS before the fuel pump failed due to crap in the tank! I only got to ride it one time!! Second morning of ownership it wouldn't start. Honda took care of it by cleaning the tank and replacing the fuel pump, likely what they will be doing on all the bikes. I think each and every 18 and 19 ATAS will be covered. The dealer told me that this problem will be covered from now on because of the warranty claim, but I'm not absolutely certain what "from now on" actually means.

 

They should remove the reason
i mean the tank it self releasing chemical clogging the fuel strainer and the pump

 

I have AtAS 2019 imported from Japan
but i live in Dubai
is it covered by this recall (free) or should i pay?

You would have to check you VIN to the ones listed, but my guess would be, yes it will be covered. You might have to wait until the recall is more well known to the dealerships though.

Good news😊
I’ve got an 18 ATAS I bought used a couple of months ago, only 2500 miles on it when I got it. Running Great, but the fuel tank issue was something I was planning on addressing soon.
I’ll be keeping tract of this thread and calling our local Honda dealer.
thanks OP

 

Mine is a 2020 ATAS and the local dealer says it isn't part of a recall.

 

Yet. It was only released in Japan recently.

 

This recall just went live today/yesterday (Dec. 18th) in Japan. As far as I know no other countries have released any information about the recall. We will all have to be patient, it will trickle out of Japan soon enough.

 

Are these recalls only for ATAS or also for standard models 2018/2019?

 

ATAS only, the standard models were not affected, as they have a different tank.

 

Any updates to the recall from dealers ?
any contact from dealers?

 

Have you contacted your local Honda Powersports dealer?

 

I have just learned (thanks to advrider.com) that the Canadian recall went live Friday. You can check your vin at the Honda Canada Motorcycle Recall site Honda Motorcycle.

My bike is included. No documents are posted yet. Dealers will be aware shortly.

 

Recalls generally apply to all applicable vehicles included in the recall regardless of warranty status. I wonder if they fixed this at some point for if it applies to all 2020's. I'm looking for a new ATAS in Spring, not sure if I should go with the 2020 or the 2021. There doesn't seem to be much advantage to the 2021 other than, hopefully, no recall. With the 2021 you loose the gold rims and get black (I think) and, you'd loose the Honda Rebate.

 

Any news regarding the recall from dealers?//

My '18 ATAS (UK market model) is prefixed SD06 - not sure if we get ours direct from Japan or via Europe but I think the latter? In that case, euro models may not be in scope. Certainly nothing came up via recall search. Certainly had no issues in 10k miles.
