The turn signal flasher may fail to alert the operator of a malfunction
of ConsumerAffairs
Zero Motorcycles is recalling ten model year 2017 S ZF6.5, S ZF13.0, DSP ZF13.0, and SR ZF13.0 motorcycles.
If the turn signal stops working, the turn signal flasher may not change its flash rate to alert the operator.
As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 108, "Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Equipment."
If motorcycle is operated without knowing that a turn signal is not working, there is an increased risk of a crash.
What to do
Zero will notify owners and dealers will test the motorcycle's flasher, replacing it as necessary, free of charge. The recall is expected to begin on, or before July 28, 2017.
Owners may contact Zero customer service at 1-888-841-8085. Zero's number for the recall is SV-ZMC-017-369.
