The defect
Piaggio Group Americas, Inc. (Piaggio) is recalling certain 2014-2017 Piaggio Fly 150 3V ie scooters. The front brake disc mounting screws may loosen and contact the brake caliper holding plate or the fork leg.
The risk
If a screw loosens and contacts the caliper holding plate or the fork leg, the front wheel may suddenly lock up, increasing the risk of crash.
The remedy
Piaggio has notified owners, and dealers will tighten the front brake disc mounting screws after applying a thread-locking adhesive, free of charge. The recall began July 31, 2017. Owners may contact Piaggio customer service at 1-212-380-4433. Piaggio's number for this recall is 0000313.

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.
