I just recieved my recall notice for my 450 es regarding battery drain problem, I am going to set up an apintment to get this fixed as soon as posible.

 

A Honda recall? Say it ain't so!

Yeah and Honda is fixing the problem arn't they. Would polaris?

 

I just got mine in the mail also. I am surprised. I never really had a problem after I changed out that original weak battery. But.... if it is recalled, I will take it in. (sometimes other less significant items are included in the same recall which are not published) <maybe they will also repair the reluctant cold weather "warm - up" shifting. I hope,hope, hope>

Seriously, 800 miles and all I have had to do is change the oil and add gas. That's it. No wrenching required. I love it.

 

Now is this recall going to include the 450S? Or does the lack of the ESP not contribute to the battery drain problem? I've never had a problem with the battery on mine and have not heard other 450S owners complain.

Thanks for all of the up to date info guys!

The recall only applies to the 1998 and 99 450 es not the s model.

 

I have a '99 Honda Recon that is 6 months old today. just a few days ago, i started having problems with the battery not firing up. when i turn the key it lights up in neutral, but when i hit the start button, it goes errr, dead. my dad and i recharged the battery but it didn't work. we think it is a bad wire that is draining the juice. the lights dim out too. any suggestions?

Cody, will it pull start (if you have a backup)?

 

I haven't received a recall notice yet, but I'm really curious to see what they do to fix the problem. Keep us informed as to what they change or replace, O.K.?
