Wished I knew about product review before I bought this rubbish .
My honda 216 is a little over a year old, in mid February 2022 was the first time I'd struck the problem with the rear wheels locking up when pulled back. As with most things these days when ever i strike a problem I'm straight on the net, there were video clips and advice on how to fix the problem and I also discovered it mentioned in owners manual " how to adjust drive cable" .
I took machine to a honda dealer for a service and mentioned problem, while mower was at shop I rang honda and asked rep about problem .

Questions & Answers
Allan M.asked
Hello,
I have a bent crankshaft from hitting a concrete Storm water inspection Cover.
Is this replaceable or is it not worth the dollars to have it fixed.
Any contact numbers would be great.
1 answer
It is replaceable, but could be very expensive. With a quick google I found a crankshaft at $31.00 USD in the US, and exactly the same Honda part number here was around $340 AUD! Not sure if it was exactly the one for your model. You need to look at the labels on your mower and get the engine number first to start tracing part numbers. Ring Honda if you're not sure. They can probably quote on the part too.

If you or someone you know can replace it, I'd look overseas and work out the landed cost vs what Honda might charge you for the part, and consider if you're up for the job. Keep in mind there might be other components that need replacing (unless you're sure you only have to replace the crankshaft).
I suspect labour cost could be pretty high, but you might be able to find a decent small engine mechanic who can source the part(s) at reasonable cost (maybe even secondhand) and give you an overall repair cost.
Alternatively an engine swap is relatively simple, so there might be a mechanic who has one they could swap.
Just some thoughts to go on. A bent crankshaft isn't the end of the world. IT'll all come down to $$$.
Good luck
