Although I sort of chalk this up to user error it might be something to do if you have a Honda: This recall involves Honda EU2200i, EU2200i Companion and EB2200i portable generators. The recalled portable generators were sold with a red or Camo cover. The names “HONDA” and the generator model name are printed on the control panel. The serial number is located on a lower corner of one of the side panels of the generator. The following model numbers and serial number ranges are being recalled Models EB2200iTA START SERIAL NUMBER---- END SERIAL NUMBER EAJT-1000001-----------------------EAJT-1005474 EU2200iTA, EU2200iTA1, EU2200iTA2 START SERIAL NUMBER----END SERIAL NUMBER EAMT-1000001----------------------EAMT-1260796 https://www.cpsc.gov/Recalls/2019/A...able-Generators-Due-to-Fire-and-Burn-Hazards#
The service bulletin was released last week with repair procedures and updated parts information. There is a stop sale in place until inventory is repaired. Competent dealers should have their inventory repaired and available for sale in the very near future.
should have put eu2200 in the title, not eu2000, because most folks are NOT affected, it's just the newer ones.
