Car Recall Check

The motorcycle’s down sensor ensures that the engine cuts out when the motorcycle goes down. In the affected motorcycles, the bolts holding the down sensor may not be properly attached. If the bolts become loose, the down sensor may come out of its bracket, causing the engine to cut out while the motorcycle is being ridden or preventing the engine from cutting out if the motorcycle goes down. If the engine cuts out while the motorcycle is being ridden, or if it fails to stop when the motorcycle goes down, this could be very dangerous and could injure or kill the motorcyclist.

The front master brake cylinder assembly installed on these vehicles had been built with inadequate lubrication on the secondary cup. This could cause too slow return of the piston upon release of the brake and in extreme cases, the piston may not return completely. If this happens, the rear brake light could remain illuminated which could result in an accident, since the rider cannot warn the drivers of other vehicles when reduces the speed of his motorcycle.
