What this recall covers

NHTSA's campaign record, quoted as published

The defect

ON CERTAIN MOTOR SCOOTERS, THE HEAD OF THE ENGINE ATTACHMENT BOLT (P/N 597080) MAY BREAK.

The risk

IF THE BOLT WERE TO BREAK, THE ENGINE COULD BECOME LOOSE AND DETACH ITSELF FROM THE VEHICLE FRAME, INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH.

The remedy

THE ENGINE ATTACHMENT BOLTS (VD 10.9) WILL BE REPLACED. ALL VEHICLES ARE STILL IN TRANSIT TO THE UNITED STATES. NONE OF THESE VEHICLES HAVE BEEN DISTRIBUTED TO DEALERS OR SOLD TO CUSTOMERS.

Notes

CUSTOMERS MAY ALSO CONTACT THE NATIONAL HIGHWAY TRAFFIC SAFETY ADMINISTRATION'S VEHICLE SAFETY HOTLINE AT 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), OR GO TO HTTP://WWW.SAFERCAR.GOV.

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.
