Safety recall campaigns filed with NHTSA that cover this model year

Recalls apply to specific vehicles, not to every vehicle of a model year. Check your VIN with NHTSA or your manufacturer's dealer to confirm whether a recall affects your vehicle.

Recall campaignsA 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.

777 units potentially affected
The defect: VEHICLE DESCRIPTION: CERTAIN MOPEDS FAIL TO COMPLY WITH DOT CERTIFICATIONS. AN INCORRECT VEHICLE IDENTIFICATION NUMBER (VIN) WAS STAMPED INTO THE STEEL BOSS ON THE FRAME AT JUNCTION OF THE FRAME TO THE STEERING YOLK TUBE; A MANUFACTURER IDENTIFICATION LABEL IS MISSING; AND THE CONSUMER INFORMATION ADDENDUM TO THE OWNER'S MANUAL IS MISSING.
The risk: THESE ERRORS WILL AFFECT THE REGISTRATION OF THE VEHICLE.
The remedy: DEALERS WILL INSTALL REPLACEMENT VIN IDENTIFICATIONS AND A MANUFACTURER ID LABEL WILL BE ATTACHED TO THE STEERING YOLK TUBE. OWNER NOTIFICATION IS EXPECTED TO BEGIN DURING JANUARY/FEBRUARY 2001. OWNERS WHO TAKE THEIR VEHICLES TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER ON AN AGREED UPON SERVICE DATE AND DO NOT RECEIVE THE FREE REMEDY WITHIN A REASONABLE TIME SHOULD CONTACT J&J AT 1-623-931-4060.

What a recall is

Safety recall
A 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.
Safety investigation
NHTSA 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.
Manufacturer communication
Manufacturers file copies of the bulletins they send to dealers with NHTSA. These often describe diagnostic or repair procedures for a known condition. They are not recalls: repairs described in a bulletin are usually only free if the vehicle is still under warranty or the manufacturer has extended coverage.
