What this recall covers

NHTSA's campaign record, quoted as published

The defect

Piaggo Group Americas, Inc. (Piaggo) is recalling certain 2023 Moto Guzzi V100 Mandello and Mandello Aviazione Navale motorcycles. The rear shock absorber may be missing one or both bushings, which can cause it to break.

The risk

A rear shock absorber that breaks can cause a loss of vehicle control and increase the risk of a crash.

The remedy

Dealers will inspect and, if necessary, replace the rear shock absorber, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed August 22, 2023. Owners may contact Piaggio's customer service at 1-212-380-4433.

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.nhtsa.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.
