Honda Recalls Portable Generators
In cooperation with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, Honda recalled approximately 340,000 EB2200i and EU2200i generators in the U.S. The company will inspect and repair or replace inverter units within these generators. Recall inspections and repairs begin on March 23, 2020, when repair parts will become available.
If affected generators are operated under certain environmental conditions, water may enter an electrical connection on the inverter, located behind the control panel. This can cause a short circuit failure or fire during operation. It is important that customers with affected products refrain from operating these generators until they are inspected and repaired.
To confirm that a generator is affected, contact the American Honda Customer Relations Department at (888) 888-3139, option 4.
