Recalls, owner-reported complaints, investigations and safety data

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.

Safety recallsA safety recall is issued when a manufacturer or NHTSA determines that a vehicle has a safety-related defect or does not comply with a federal motor vehicle safety standard. Recall repairs are free. Whether a specific vehicle is covered depends on its VIN — a recall listed for a model year does not necessarily apply to every vehicle of that year.

InvestigationsNHTSA opens an investigation to examine whether a safety defect may exist. An open investigation is not a determination that a defect exists, and many investigations close without a recall. Investigations can, however, lead to one.
0
Crash or fire reportedComplaints whose submitter recorded that a crash or a fire occurred. These are the reporter's own answers on the NHTSA form, not verified findings.

Apr 21, 2009
180 units potentially affected
The defect: JONWAY IS RECALLING 180 MY 2008 SUNNY SCOOTERS. SOME OF THESE SCOOTERS MAY HAVE BEEN MANUFACTURED WITHOUT A RETAINER CLIP DESIGNED TO PREVENT THE HYDRAULIC BRAKE LINE FROM COMING INTO CONTACT WITH THE FRONT TIRE. IN THE SCOOTERS WHERE THE RETAINER CLIP WAS NOT INSTALLED, THE BRAKE LINE MAY RUB AGAINST THE FRONT TIRE AND DAMAGE THE LINE.
The risk: IF THE LINE IS RUBBED THROUGH, THE FRONT BRAKE MAY NOT OPERATE PROPERLY WHICH COULD RESULT IN A CRASH.
The remedy: OWNERS WILL BE NOTIFIED TO TAKE THEIR SCOOTERS TO DEALERS, AND DEALERS WILL INSPECT THE FRONT BRAKE LINE AND ITS ROUTING. A RETAINER CLIP WILL BE INSTALLED ON ANY SCOOTERS WITHOUT THOSE CLIPS, AND ANY DAMAGED BRAKE LINES WILL BE REPLACED FREE OF CHARGE. THE RECALL BEGAN ON APRIL 15, 2009. OWNERS MAY CONTACT JONWAY AT 972-408-6804.
