Mine burnt a hole in the Right rear floorboard last year. @Plongson also had the same problem,Don't know what his outcome was. I took mine to the local dealer and this was the fix

 

[tbaker]

Will we get a notice in the mail or just call the dealer and ask them but you know how that is the dealer probably never heard of this update that's what Honda calls everything they never say the word recall that's a polaris word

Lol! Are you referencing my lawn mower comment from a couple months ago?

 

[Toyhauler33]

Yep. I just called my dealer and they said if I brought my pioneer in for service they would hold it until the parts were available.

 

[gullyjumper]

Does this just happen to the pioneer 1000-5 or does it include the 1000-3 ?

 

[Dustin_K]

Got word this morning that Honda has put a sale stop do to this recall. I would recommend everyone take off there plastic muffler protector in tell you get your recall. Sounds like the recall won't be available tell May
