A few hours later, they called me back and said that Honda was not providing parts for any bike that has been registered. They could order the arts for any bike in their showroom, but not for a customers unit. If this is truly a safety issue, I do not understand how bikes sitting in a showroom are more dangerous than those being ridden every day. If they have the parts, why are they unwilling to provide them? I reached out t… |

Emerging complaint spikes
Complete months in the latest six months with at least 10 complaints, at least twice the preceding 12-month average, and at least three square-root deviations above that average.
This is a descriptive screening rule, not a statistical defect finding. Publicity and reporting changes can increase submissions.
No complete months meet the spike thresholds for this selection.
Equal-age model-year comparison
Model-wide cumulative reports during the first three or five calendar years, starting with the model year (age 0). Only fully elapsed windows are compared.
No selected model years have a complete observation window. Choose an eligible year or a shorter window.
Incident date is preferred when valid and no later than filing; otherwise filing date is used. Model year approximates age. Equal observation time does not adjust for sales, distance driven or reporting delays. One complaint linked to multiple model years can appear in each cohort.
