Details

What's wrong: The switches on the handlebars for both the direction indicator and the emergency engine off/engine-start functions may fail.

Why it matters: In such a case, the directional indicator and/or the emergency engine-off/start functions would be rendered inoperative. In some cases, engine stalling could also result increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix: Dealers will inspect and replace the necessary components free of charge. The safety recall began on April 6, 2010.
