What this recall covers

NHTSA's campaign record, quoted as published

The defect

Yamaha is recalling certain model year 2011 XC50A (Vino Classic) motorcycles manufactured from April 2011 through August 2011. Due to improper adhesion, the brake shoe linings may separate from the front and rear brake shoes.

The risk

If the brake shoe linings separate, the brake performance could be reduced, increasing the risk of a crash.

The remedy

Yamaha will notify owners, and dealers will replace the front and rear brake shoes, free of charge. The recall began on October 4, 2013. Owners may contact Yamaha at 1-800-962-7926.

Notes

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to 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.
