Country of origin	日本
Manufacturer	Honda Motor Co., Ltd.
Models affected	GB350, GB350 S
Units affected	25012
Defect	Due to inadequate waterproofing of the front and rear wheel speed sensors, water may ingress into the sensor's interior during rain driving or similar conditions. This can lead to a short circuit in the sensor's circuitry, causing erratic wheel speed signals and speedometer malfunction, or activation of traction control, resulting in poor acceleration. In the worst case, it may falsely detect that a wheel has locked while driving, potentially causing the brakes to fail.
Component	Braking system (wheel speed sensor)
Remedy	On all vehicles, replace the front and rear wheel speed sensors with improved parts.
