Owner report 11571550 · 2024-02-12 (February 12, 2024)
I am writing to submit a complaint regarding a potential safety defect in the 2018-2024 Honda Goldwing motorcycles equipped with Android Auto. Shortly after purchasing a new 2024 Goldwing motorcycle, I experienced a concerning incident while riding in Northern Virginia traffic. While using Android Auto, I received a "communications error" message, causing the system to disconnect unexpectedly.

Owner report 11662714 · 2025-05-23 (May 23, 2025)

Owner report 11746321 · 2026-06-24 (June 24, 2026)
With less than 10k miles I have excessive tire cupping. Upon a deep dive inspection of the motorcycle I found the bolts to the upper control arm coming loose/ backing out. Excessive amount of threads showing on all 4 corners of the control arm. I Contact the dealer, who informed me that this is normal. Doesn't look like it should be especially with grease showing on the bolts. I have examined other same year similar bikes with about the same mileage and they are having the same tire issue and bolt problem.
