What this recall covers

NHTSA's campaign record, quoted as published

The defect

Royal Enfield North America Limited (Royal Enfield) is recalling certain 2018-2020 Continental GT 650 and Interceptor 650 motorcycles. Road salt may cause corrosion on the brake calipers.

The risk

Corroded brake calipers may cause the brakes to drag or decrease braking performance, increasing the risk of a crash.

The remedy

Royal Enfield will notify owners, and dealers will replace front and rear calipers, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed March 15, 2021. Owners may contact Royal Enfield customer service at 1-866-600-1122.

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.
