Recall campaignsA 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.

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:DELIVERY:HOSES, LINES/PIPING, AND FITTINGS

Nov 9, 1998
6,087 units potentially affected
The defect: VEHICLE DESCRIPTION: MOTORCYCLES. THE HOSE CONNECTING THE FUEL PUMP TO THE FUEL FILER CAN COME OFF CAUSING A LCAK OF FUEL PRESSURE OT THE FUEL INJECTION SYSTEM. THIS CAN PREVENT THE MOTORCYCLE FROM STARTING OR CAN CAUSE THE ENGINE TO STALL.
The risk: ENGINE STALLING WHILE RIDING COULD DISTURB THE DRIVER'S ABILITY TO CONTROL THE MOTORCYCLE, INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH.
The remedy: DEALERS WILL REPLACE THE ORIGINAL RUBBER FUEL HOSE WITH A COMBINATION METAL AND RUBBER FUEL PIPE SET WHICH WILL ELIMINATE THE POSSIBILITY OF A FUEL HOSE DISCONNECTING FROM THE FUEL PUMP.

What a recall is

Safety recall
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.
Safety investigation
NHTSA opens an investigation to examine whether a safety defect may exist. An open investigation is not a determination that a defect exists, and many investigations close without a recall. Investigations can, however, lead to one.
Manufacturer communication
Manufacturers file copies of the bulletins they send to dealers with NHTSA. These often describe diagnostic or repair procedures for a known condition. They are not recalls: repairs described in a bulletin are usually only free if the vehicle is still under warranty or the manufacturer has extended coverage.

Safety investigations
