What this recall covers

NHTSA's campaign record, quoted as published

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.

Notes

ALSO CONTACT THE NATIONAL HIGHWAY TRAFFIC SAFETY ADMINISTRATION'S AUTO SAFETY HOTLINE AT 1-888-DASH-2-DOT (1-888-327-4236).

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.
