The recall was eventually performed, but only after inappropriate pushback from the dealer due to my vehicle having a salvage title \u2014 which is irrelevant under federal recall law.  The core issue is that this sensor regulates the electrical system and can cause overcharging or undercharging \u2014 which in my case, led to premature alternator failure.  Honda\u2019s own Technical Service Bulletin (TSB 17-069) acknowledges the link between BMS failure and electrical system damage.  Furthermore, Honda\u2019s own documentation acknowledges that many customers \u2014 particularly used car or private party buyers \u2014 were never properly notified of the Battery Management Sensor (BMS) recall. As a result, these customers may be unjustly denied warranty or reimbursement claims, through no fault of their own. This applies directly to my case.  I had already replaced the alternator out of pocket due to failure, long before I was ever informed of the recall. Once I became aware of the issue and brought the car in, I was relieved that Honda performed the BMS recall repair, which resolved the dashboard alerts. However, it is unfair and unacceptable that Honda refuses to cover the damage the faulty system caused prior to the recall being completed \u2014 especially when I was never properly notified in the first place.  This places the financial burden of a known safety defect onto the customer, despite the existence of a federally mandated recall directly linked to the damage.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2015","productMake":"HONDA","productModel":"ACCORD","manufacturer":"Honda (American Honda Motor Co.)"}]}]}
