NHTSA recall 13V635000
Electrical System · Zero Motorcycles Inc.
Details
What's wrong: Zero motorcycles Inc. (zero) is recalling certain model year 2012-2013 xu, s, ds, and model year 2013 fx motorcycles. The affected motorcycles have controller firmware that, as a result of certain system faults, may shut off power to the motor.
Why it matters: A sudden loss of power to the motor may increase the risk of a crash.
The fix: Zero will notify owners, and dealers will update the controller firmware, free of charge. The recall is expected to begin in mid-January 2014.
