Honda Marine today announced that its industry-best True 5-year, factory-backed, non-declining limited warranty is now a standard feature for all Honda outboards (2-225 hp) purchased on or after July 1, 2008, for recreational use.  True 5 offers full Honda backing in comparison to the outsourced, extended service contracts typically provided by other manufacturers.  Coverage under the program is the same on the last day as it is on the first.

"With five consecutive recognitions from the NMMA for outstanding customer service, offering True 5 as a standard feature of our full range of reliable, fuel-efficient outboards affords Honda Marine customers an unparalleled level of award-winning dealer support," said John Fulcher, senior manager, Honda Marine.  "With full Honda backing and non-declining coverage, True 5 keeps Honda Marine customers where they want to be-on the water."  

Honda Marine pioneered 4-stroke engine technology, setting a new benchmark for fuel efficiency, quiet operation, and low emissions.  Honda's outboards share the same unparalleled durability, quality, and reliability of its legendary automobiles.  With models ranging from 2 to 225 horsepower, Honda Marine's full line of current production models meets rigorous California Air Resources Board (CARB) 3-Star standards, ensuring their availability and regulatory compliance in all 50 states.
