Data refreshed

Owner complaintsComplaints are reports submitted to NHTSA by owners and drivers. NHTSA does not verify most reports before publishing them, and a complaint does not establish that a defect exists. Volume is influenced by how many of a vehicle were sold, how long it has been on the road, and how much attention an issue has received.

ENGINE STOPS/DIES WHILE DRIVING IN TRAFFIC. WILL NOT RESTART RELIABLY. WHEN IT DOES RESTART, IT CONTINUES TO STOP RUNNING

NHTSA ID 11073292 · filed Feb 16, 2018

WHEN RIDING, IN ALL CONDITIONS, AND WITH A FREQUENCY OF 3 OR MORE TIMES PER WEEK, THE ENGINE WILL CUT OFF WHEN THE CLUTCH IS PULLED IN. THIS REQUIRES ME TO RESTART THE ENGINE WHILE DRIVING, MOST TIMES IT IS CONTROLLABLE HOWEVER IT IS ALARMING AS IT CAN HAPPEN AT ANY TIME. THIS HAS HAPPENED MOSTLY AT SPEEDS IN THE RANGE OF 30-45 MPH.
