Consumer Description
CRANKSHAFT BOLT APPEARS TO BE SHEARED OFF. THAT HELD THE PULLY IN PLACE WHICH HOLDS ON THE TIMING CHAIN AND 2 OTHER BELTS. I CONTACTED THE HONDA CORPORATION WHO WAS IN TOUCH WITH WILDE HONDA AND WAS TOLD THAT THERE IS NO DEFECT WITH THE BOLT. I HAVE SPOKEN TO MANY OTHER MECHANICS AND THEY HAVE SAID THAT IT IS MOST LIKELY DUE TO THE FACTORY TORQUEING THE BOLT DOWN TO TIGHT WHICH MAY HAVE CAUSED A STRESS FRACTURE. WILDE HONDA ALSO SAID THAT IT WAS DUE TO THE AIR INTAKE FILTER BEING CHANGED AND THE TIRES BEING WORN. I FIND THAT HARD TO BELIEVE AND HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT ,THATIS HIGHLY UNLIKELY. WOULD YOU PLEASE CHECK INTO THIS AND LET ME KNOW IF THERE ARE ANY OTHER CASES LIKE THIS. THANK YOU. *AK
