The contact owns a 2021 Yamaha XMAX 300 Motorcycle. The contact stated that shortly after the motorcycle was repaired under NHTSA Campaign Number: 25V778000 (ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING); while riding approximately 55 MPH, the motorcycle suddenly decelerated and stalled. The motorcycle was towed to a local mechanic nearby and the contact was informed that the cam shaft bolt was missing from the motorcycle. The motorcycle was later towed back to the local dealer, and the contact was informed that the cam shaft bolt had sheared off. The motorcycle was repaired by the dealer, but the contact was not provided the information about the repair. After retrieving and starting the motorcycle, engine oil immediately started pouring from the engine onto the ground. The cause of the failure was not yet determined. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 2,900.
