Honda Recalls TRX All-Terrain Vehicles December 20, 2005 Honda is recalling about 24,000 2005 and 2006 TRX400EX ATVs. A safety defect could exist in the transmission that could allow the rider to downshift from 1st gear into reverse without operating the reverse assist (lockout) lever.  Unintended engagement of reverse gear while moving forward could lock the rear wheels and cause the rider to lose control.American Honda Motor Corp. has received four warranty claims about this problem; three indicating the spring was out of position. No incidents or injuries have been reported. The recall involves Honda 2005 and 2006 model year TRX400EX ATVs. They are adult-sized ATVs designed for use by riders age 16 and older. The 2005 model year ATVs are available in red and yellow. The 2006 model year ATVs are available in red or black. The TRX400EX model name is on the fuel tank and Honda is in white letters on the seat. The ATVs were sold by Honda dealers nationwide from September 2004 through November 2005 for around $5,900. Consumers should stop using these recalled ATVs until the repair has been completed. Please call any Honda ATV dealer to make an appointment to have your ATV repaired. The dealer will install a kit to prevent the shift problem. Consumers with the recalled ATVs have been sent direct notice via U.S. mail. Consumer Contact: For more information, consumers can call Honda toll-free at (866) 784-1870 between 8:30 a.m. and 5 p.m. PT Monday through Friday, or visit the firm’s Web site at http://www.powersports.honda.com. The recall is being conducted in cooperation with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC).

I think the least of my worries would be the rear tires just locking up if I dumped it into reverse at high speed.
